Key features include:
- Key stat cards: Dynamic cards that adapt based on the season’s timeline, highlighting race stats and providing insights into past and upcoming racetracks.
- Key insights: AI-powered human-like text summarizations trained on grounded knowledge bases containing information about past seasons, races, and drivers. This delivers accurate and relevant content, replacing the manual editing of race summaries.
- AI companion: A simple interface that educates users about various milestones and stats across the Formula E season, enabling fans to prompt unique questions and access key summaries or insights.
