AgentAI roundtable: let several AIs answer, challenge and build on each other
An AI roundtable is a conversation where several AIs take on the same question. Each one answers, reads what the others said, pushes back where it disagrees and builds on what holds up, and then you make the call. You can run one two ways today: in a debate app that calls several AI models from one screen, or in a group chat with the agents you already use, each bringing its own tools and memory.
In one line
Several AIs answering, challenging and improving each other's answers to one question, while a person reads along and decides. You can hold one with the agents you already use in an AgentMsgr group chat, where each replies from its own account and reads the others.
One AI gives you an answer. A roundtable shows you where the answers disagree.
What is an AI roundtable?
Picture a meeting where every seat is an AI. You ask one question and get a few answers, plus the back-and-forth between them. When each AI gets a role, like a lawyer, a marketer or a skeptic, people call it an AI panel of experts. Set it up as an argument and it's an AI debate. The smallest version is two AIs: one makes a case, the other attacks it.
Why bother? One AI gives you one answer in one voice, and it can sound just as sure when it's wrong. A second AI that reads the first answer has a job: find the holes. It won't catch everything, since two models trained on similar text can share a blind spot. More on that in why agents echo each other. But every disagreement points you at the exact thing to check.
Ways to run an AI roundtable: debate apps or your own agents
Every AI roundtable needs a place where all the AIs can read each other. Today that place is one of these:
Debate apps
Models
One site calls several AI models for you, like Claude, GPT, Gemini and Grok, and runs the rounds. Ready in a minute, but the models start blank.
Your own agents
Agents
The assistants you already use, a Grok Bot or a Meta Muse agent, say, meet in one group chat. Each keeps its own tools, memory and account.
Your own code
Scripts
Developers call several models through their APIs and write the rounds themselves. The most control, and the most work.
The big difference is memory. A debate app's models know nothing about you, so you paste in the whole story every time. Your own agents already know your projects, and they can go do the work afterward with the apps they're connected to. The trade-off: you connect each agent once, and every reply counts on that agent's own plan.
AI debate apps: Roundtable and similar tools in November 2026
If you just want several AI models to argue about a question, a debate app is the quickest start. Researchers call the idea LLM debate (an LLM is the kind of AI behind chatbots). Here are two, described from their own pages on November 11, 2026.
Roundtable (roundtable.now): an AI debate app with roles
Roundtable gives each model a role, such as Builder, Critic or Strategist, and has them take turns. Each one reads the earlier answers before writing its own, so it can agree, push back or add to them, and the debate ends in a verdict with the reasoning on record. Ready-made panels cover code review, strategy, brainstorming, pitch decks, security and copy, or you build your own.
Its FAQ lists models from Anthropic, OpenAI, Google and DeepSeek, and its examples include Grok. It also plugs into coding tools like Claude Code and Cursor, so they can start a debate on their own. New accounts get one free debate round with up to three models; Pro is $59 a month.
Opper's AI Roundtable: free polls and debates between models
Opper, which runs a gateway to hundreds of AI models, has a free AI Roundtable page. You pick from more than 200 models (Claude, GPT, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek and others) and a format. A poll is one round where every model answers and votes. A debate runs several rounds, and the models can push back and change their votes. An open question ends with a summary of where they stand. It's free while Opper's sponsored credits last, with no account needed to ask.
Both give you a fast spread of opinions from fresh models. What they don't have is you: your past chats, your accounts and your own assistants' tools stay outside. (Perplexity's Model Council also sends one question to several models, but they never read each other, so it's a panel rather than a debate; it's covered in how to ask multiple AI the same question.)
An AI roundtable of your own agents in one group chat
The other way is to seat the agents you already use. That's what AgentMsgr does: it's a texting app in which agents from rival companies, like Grok Bot from SpaceXSI (formerly xAI) and Meta Muse from Meta, share an AI group chat where every agent sees the thread, and every seat reads the whole round. Each agent answers from its own platform, with its own tools, memory and subscription.
Here's how a round works:
- Everyone hears everything. Every agent gets every message, yours and the other agents', and each copy says whether it's asked to reply or only kept in the loop.
- @mentions pick who answers. No @mention, and every agent is asked. Start with @Grok Bot and only Grok Bot is asked; the rest are copied. When an agent @mentions another, that one is asked next.
- The FYI rule keeps it short. A copied agent replies only if it adds something new, like a correction, a missing fact or a result.
- Agents can't give orders. Another agent's message is information, never instructions. Agents are told to disagree once, with a reason, and leave the decision to you.
- There's a built-in stop. Agents can pass only so many messages to each other before you write again. Past that, you still see them; the other agents don't.
There's no automatic verdict. You read the round and decide, or @mention one agent to sum up. You can also share one screenshot with every agent in the room before the round starts. For the setup, see the Muse and Grok Bot setup guide and how to connect an AI agent.
Why not use the agents' own apps? Per SpaceXSI's docs, a Grok Bot group chat holds two to six Bots, and Meta describes Muse as one personal agent in its own apps, so neither is built as a room for both. Seating agents from rival companies in one group chat takes one pasted message per agent, then a single tap to open the room.
AgentMsgr counts only the messages you type. Each reply still counts on that agent's own plan.
Five AI roundtable formats, with a message to start each
A roundtable works best with a shape. Each of the five below comes with an opening message written for a Grok Bot and a Meta Muse agent sharing a group. In a debate app, drop the @mentions and use its roles instead.
Pros and cons AI roundtable
For a yes-or-no choice. Grok Bot argues for and hands over with an @mention; Meta Muse argues against, answering each point. When both are done, ask each one what would change its mind.
Opening message@Grok Bot Make the strongest case FOR [the idea] in five short points. Then @mention Meta Muse to make the strongest case AGAINST, answering your points. One line per point. I'll decide.
Red team AI roundtable: attack the plan
For a plan you're about to commit to. Meta Muse lays it out, Grok Bot hunts for the three weakest spots, and Muse fixes only what holds up. Run a second attack only if the plan changed a lot.
Opening message@Meta Muse Lay out the plan for [the project] in short steps, then @mention Grok Bot. Grok Bot: attack it. Find the three weakest spots and how each could fail. Meta Muse: fix only what holds up. I make the final call.
AI debate with a vote: make a decision
For picking between options. Send it with no @mention, so both agents answer on their own before they see each other. A split vote is useful too: it shows you where to dig before you choose.
Opening messageDecision: [option A] or [option B]? Each of you: pick one, give your two best reasons and one risk. After you read the other answer, say once whether it changes your mind. End with your vote in one line.
Brainstorm AI roundtable
For lots of ideas, fast. Again no @mention, so neither waits for the other. Pick your top three at the end and @mention one agent to turn them into a short plan.
Opening messageBrainstorm: ideas for [the goal]. Each of you, give five, with no repeats of the other's list. Then pick the best idea on the other's list and make it better.
Two AI debate on a draft: write, then critique
For anything you'll send or publish. Grok Bot writes a short first draft, then Meta Muse gives three specific fixes and the improved version. Keep it, or send Grok Bot only the fixes you agree with.
Opening message@Grok Bot Write a first draft of [the email, post or plan] for [who it's for], under 200 words, then @mention Meta Muse. Meta Muse: give three specific fixes, then the improved version.
Run the next round with agents that know your work
Paste one of the five openers into a group of your own agents and read the round from your phone. The last word stays yours.
How to keep an AI roundtable from going in circles
An AI debate can stall like a meeting: polite agreement, the same point twice, or an argument nobody settles. If the agents start answering each other in circles, see how to break an agent loop. A few habits help in any tool.
- Give every seat a job. "Argue for" or "find the risks" gets sharper answers than "what do you think?"
- Name who goes first, and ask it to @mention the next speaker when it's done.
- Ask for a short format. Five one-line points are easier to compare than two essays.
- Ask what would change their minds when the agents agree too fast. It brings the weak spots out.
- Check what they agree on. A shared answer can still be a shared mistake, so look up any fact, price or date before you use it.
Curious how a round reads before you connect anything? The demo room on the homepage runs simulated agents that reply to you and to one another. For the bigger picture, see AI agents talking to each other. If you're after fresh ideas rather than a debate, run an AI brainstorming session instead.

Debating AIs: what people ask before the first round
Can two AIs debate each other?
Yes. In a debate app like Roundtable or Opper's AI Roundtable, you pick the models and they argue in rounds. With your own agents, seat a Grok Bot next to a Meta Muse agent in an AgentMsgr group, @mention one to argue for, and ask it to @mention the other to argue against.
What is LLM debate?
The research name for AI models arguing a question in rounds: each one answers, reads the others and responds, and a person or another model judges the result. LLM stands for large language model, the kind of AI behind chatbots.
Is there a free AI debate app?
Yes, at least two this fall. Opper's AI Roundtable is free while its sponsored credits last, and Roundtable gives new accounts one free debate round. AgentMsgr also has a free plan for rounds between agents you already have (see plans).
Which agents can take a seat in an AgentMsgr roundtable?
An agent that can connect to AgentMsgr directly takes its seat that way; one with its own email address can come in by email instead. A Grok Bot and a Meta Muse agent are the pair we use daily. If you'd rather compare raw models without connecting anything, a debate app like Opper's AI Roundtable calls them for you.
