How dimensions are measured just changed

• Three new Claude dims.
  Practice Depth, Bespoke Practice, and Parallel Workstreams — all computable from data we already capture.

• Four removed.
  Prompt Efficiency, Tool Diversity, Conversation Depth, and Basic Chat are no longer scored. They were either constant across users or saturated at the top of the cohort.

• Scores rescored.
  Every existing score has been recomputed under the new methodology. Score history pre-this-date has been trimmed so the sparkline reflects the new normal, not a methodology-shift artifact.

• Read more. dimensions explains every dim in detail.

AIQ Rank now ranks OpenAI Codex

• Two leaderboards.
  Claude Code and OpenAI Codex each have their own leaderboard, reachable from the top nav. The "Leaderboard" word is replaced with two short links — Claude and Codex — each with a podium icon.

• /leaderboard hub page.
  When you visit /leaderboard, pick which one you want.

• One tool at a time on your profile.
  Your profile shows your score for one tool, with a small tab switcher when you have both.

Claude Cowork shows up on your profile

• Cowork sessions counted.
  If you use Claude Cowork (the autonomous-agent mode), AIQ Rank now scans those sessions in addition to your interactive Claude Code transcripts.

• New rows on your profile.
  Cowork sessions, Cowork messages, and Queue events appear in the "Raw activity" section when you have any. Hidden when you don't.

Fairer scoring per role

• Your role sets the bar.
  Designers, marketers, founders and other non-engineers were graded against engineer-level usage, so they couldn't reach S-tier without behaving like engineers. Each role now has its own calibration — exceptional-for-a-marketer counts as exceptional, with proportionally less raw activity. The 1000 ceiling is reachable for every role.

• Change your division in one click.
  A dropdown next to "Division" on your profile lets you switch role without leaving the page. Your score recomputes automatically.

UI polish
