FAQ
Quick answers. Read what you need, skip the rest.
Q1. What is RateMyBanana?
An AI banana-rating app with a leaderboard, five judging personas, and zero patience. You upload a banana. The AI scores it. The internet ranks it. Sir Gordon Peelsworth occasionally has notes.
Q2. Is this... actually about bananas?
Yes. Also: it's a joke. Upload an actual banana. The AI will tell you what it thinks. We keep the metaphor PG. Anything else is between you and your group chat.
Q3. What does the $0.99 unlock?
Three extra ratings on top of your daily free ones. A five-category scorecard. Full reactions from all five AI critics. A downloadable certificate. Stripe. Apple Pay. One tap.
Q4. How does the AI scoring work?
GPT-4o Vision analyzes your upload across five categories: Length (25%), Girth (35%), Overall Look (25%), Curve (5%), Color/Shape (10%). The score is for entertainment. The leaderboard is for fun. The AI is for losing to.
Q5. What about my privacy?
We don't sell your photo. We don't keep biometric data. Images are processed by GPT-4o Vision, scored, then queued for deletion. The Privacy page has the lawyer-approved version. Read it if you want.
Q6. Why are there celebrity personas?
Because a number out of ten isn't a punchline. Sir Gordon Peelsworth (snobbish British). DJ Banana Split (sports-commentator). Arnold Banananeigher (guess). Don LaFruitaine (mafia-by-way-of-fruit). William Peelspeare (the Bard, but cursed). All AI-generated.
Q7. How do I get on the leaderboard?
Check the opt-in box on your result page. Display name appears, not your photo. Top 10 only. If you're not there, the leaderboard saw something you didn't.
