OVERCLOCKED - Sortation Arena turns a boring enterprise backlog into a live arcade where AI agents race to clear a warehouse sortation line - same model, different silicon. Every parcel isn't a single prompt but a real multi-agent graph: a Router classifies the exception and dispatches it to one of 18 specialist worker agents, an image-aware Verifier independently double-checks the work and bounces it back for a retry when it's wrong, and an Exceptions Specialist makes the final call on adversarial or low-confidence items - all coordinated by an orchestrator that emits a full decision trace. That's the heart of Track 1 (Multiverse Agents): genuine orchestration over genuinely multimodal work - vision (label photos, hazmat placards, damage), document (customs invoices, manifests), text (tariff, routing, SLA), and video (a conveyor-cam clip the model reads frame-by-frame). And because an agentic loop is latency-bound by design - several sequential model calls per parcel - wafer-scale inference compounds its lead: Cerebras runs Gemma 4 31B at ~1,000 tokens/sec while the identical model on a GPU crawls near 100, its conveyor visibly jamming. The race itself is the benchmark. This is real work, not a toy: 18 task types across 111 hand-authored scenarios, every output schema-constrained and machine-graded against locked ground truth, with an ROI payoff card that tallies parcels cleared, accuracy, and pounds saved vs. manual handling - Track 3 (Enterprise Impact) made tangible. It's engineered like production software, too: API keys live only in a Cloudflare Worker (never the browser), every task derives from a single Zod schema (one source of truth for the prompt, parser, grader, and UI), and a per-lane circuit breaker trips a failed provider to OFFLINE so a missing key never kills the demo - the other lanes race on. The whole blueprint is documented end-to-end in the Docusaurus docs - overclocked-docs.ourbiplane.… - and the full source is on GitHub And it's fun - the People's Choice (Track 2) hook: a coin-op cabinet where animal clerks melt down under the backlog, a rubber-stamp THWACK lands on every cleared parcel, and a crown and confetti drop on the winner. "Watch AIs race to clear a warehouse backlog while their clerks drown in paper - same model, different silicon" is the scroll-stopper, and the side-by-side speed gap is the punchline. Watch the 60-second demo or play the live build right now - overclocked.ourbiplane.com - it ships with deterministic mock inference, so the full experience runs in your browser with no keys and no backend (hosted that way to keep it free to run). Same model, different silicon. Speed is the game. ⚡
