Indian Start-up Develops AI-powered Chatbot Solution

When is Dhoni playing again? How many matches has South Africa won while playing at home? Getting precise answers to complex cricketing queries will no longer be the forte of just commentators and statisticians.

A feature-rich, intelligent bot API has been developed by an Indian Artificial Intelligence (AI) start-up that can mine relevant answers from statistical inputs obtained from every important international cricketing series and tournament.

Roanuz Softwares Pvt Ltd has launched a Cricket Bot API, bringing an advanced chatbot experience with its sophisticated conversational capabilities. This AI-powered virtual assistant, programmed to give context-relevant answers in both text and voice, is capable of executing near-real-time-exchange, increase user self-service efficiency and deliver smooth conversational customer experiences.

Along with the Cricket Bot API, the company has also introduced the Cricket Fantasy API as part of its cricket API suite.

Roanuz, a Chennai-based AI company, has devised the Cricket Bot API with extensive data on cricket. The bot addresses an exhaustive set of information, from live and historical data on matches to player and team stats.

The data-intelligent API covers info related to all ICC Men’s International matches from 2012, Indian Premier League, Big Bash League, Caribbean Premier League, Pakistan Premier League, Bangladesh Premier League, Ram Slam T20 Challenge, Tamil Nadu Premier League, Karnataka Premier League, Women's T20I Tri-Series, Kenyan Premier League until date, Champions League T20 and Big Bash League, to name a few.

“Having a wide coverage of relevant information, the bot has the ability to respond to different topics such as player profile, recent matches, player vs. team, team vs. team and live updates,” explains Anto Binish Kaspar, founder and CEO, Roanuz.

The team at Roanuz has processed over 1.2 million balls (12,15,814 to be exact) until now, which means the API has been fed with approximately 5-million records as an input for the bot to answer questions related to modern-day cricket. This one-of-a-kind intelligent bot with analytical capabilities is taking around 1,500 milliseconds to respond at present, and this time is expected to dwindle to 300 milliseconds.
