## What is AI Race Engineer?

AI Race Engineer — Your personal AI race engineer

Turn your smartphone into a real race engineer. Talk, listen, drive — like a driver on the pit wall.

SUPPORTED GAMES
F1 2020, F1 2021, F1 22, F1 23, F1 24, F1 25 and F1 26, plus Gran Turismo 7.

PC COMPANION (WINDOWS)
Run the Windows companion and the app at the same time: a full landscape dashboard on your PC screen, with your phone or tablet still live beside it. The companion reads the game telemetry and relays it to the app, so the game only ever needs one address — and there is no extra dashboard software to install. Assetto Corsa Competizione is supported in the companion only (beta), not on phone or tablet.

TALK TO YOUR ENGINEER
Ask "Tyre strategy?", "Leader's lap time?", "Where am I losing time?" — your engineer answers instantly. Say "RADIO", then ask out loud (internet recommended for the best voice experience). On supported titles, PRO users can map a controller or wheel button to the radio.

CONNECTED TO YOUR GAMES IN REAL TIME
Connect directly to leading racing simulators. The app auto-detects your game and reads live data: on full-grid titles — tyres, weather, standings, gaps and rival strategies; on single-car sims — your live car data (tyres, fuel, lap and corner data). On grid titles, enable telemetry in the game first. The richer the data, the deeper the coaching.

FULL RACE COACHING
Your engineer manages the race like a real strategist: pit timing, undercut, tyre wear, weather alerts, Safety Car, fuel, ERS, penalties — every call in real time. Proactive coaching works trackside, even offline.

QUALIFYING DONE RIGHT
The full qualifying cycle: gap on the outlap, total radio silence on the push lap, sector-by-sector debrief after each run, automatic re-push detection.

CORNER-BY-CORNER ANALYSIS
After a flying lap, your engineer tells you where you're losing time and in which phase — braking, apex or acceleration. Ask anytime, in qualifying, practice and time trial.

AI-ASSISTED SETUP (PRO · Practice & Time Trial)
Just drive. After a few clean laps: "We've got data — box now to adjust the setup." Choose Performance, Stability or Baseline, and optionally describe the car's feel by voice. The engineer studies your best lap and feedback to suggest setup changes for the track, conditions and your driving. Internet required.
