The Creator Leaderboard highlights Character.ai creators across two weekly views: Top Creators, featuring creators whose Characters reached the most people, and Rising Creators, spotlighting creators building momentum and growing new audiences.
What is the Creator Leaderboard?
The Creator Leaderboard celebrates the creators behind the Characters people love. It has two weekly views — Top Creators and Rising Creators — which are powered by how people engage with your Characters.
How to find the Creator Leaderboard
The Creator Leaderboard lives at c.ai/leaderboard. Switch between Top Creators and Rising Creators using the buttons at the top of the page.
Top Creators
Creators people keep coming back for.
This view highlights creators whose Characters reached the most people over the last month, updated on a rolling weekly basis. It's not about raw message volume — it's about how many people chose to spend time with your Characters.
Rising Creators
Creators building new audiences week after week.
This view uses a composite score that combines:
- Interactions — activity across your Characters
- New users — people discovering your Characters for the first time
- Growth and loyalty modifiers — a boost for creators whose audience keeps expanding and keeps coming back
Rising Creators is designed to spotlight creators building momentum, even if they're still early in their journey.
When it refreshes
Both views refresh weekly. The countdown timer on the leaderboard page shows exactly when the next refresh lands, so check back each week to see which creators and Characters are gaining momentum.
How do I get featured on the leaderboard?
Make Characters people want to return to. There's no shortcut and no submission form — strong greetings, distinct personalities, and consistent quality are what bring chatters back. The Creator Guide in the Help Center covers what separates a good Character from a great one.
