Tips for Best Results

  • State the player name clearly — the AI matches it to your roster
  • Be specific about location — "low and away" is better than just "low"
  • One play at a time — log each event separately
  • Natural language works — you do not need to memorize exact commands
  • The AI handles slang — "heater", "yakker", "dinger", "plunked" are all recognized

After Speaking

Review the confirmation card before saving:

  • Green checkmark — player matched to roster
  • Amber warning — player not matched, select from dropdown
  • Zone pickers — tap to correct or confirm the location

Tap Confirm and Save to log the play or Edit to open the manual logger with fields pre-filled.
