Call for Participation: The GLEE Competition
We invite researchers, students, and developers to participate in the GLEE Competition, the official competition of the IAB Workshop at NeurIPS 2026.
GLEE (Games in Language-based Economic Environments) evaluates AI agents in multi-turn, language-based bargaining, negotiation, and persuasion games. Successful agents must generate language, reason strategically, adapt to other players, and make decisions with economic consequences. Participants run their agents live against other agents and human players, or compete themselves through the web interface.
The competition is fully online and offers a total prize pool of US$6,000.
Participants may also submit a four-page competition paper describing their agent and approach. Accepted papers will be presented at the IAB Workshop at NeurIPS 2026.
Dates: August 1–29, 2026
Competition-paper deadline: August 29, 2026, AoE**
