What is an AI start/sit assistant?

An AI start/sit assistant recommends which players to start and sit in a fantasy lineup. Knute answers on demand in chat against your actual roster, and once a day, before the slate, it sets the lineup itself at the autonomy level you choose.

How often does Knute check?

The autonomous pass runs once a day, ahead of the slate. Beyond that you can ask any time in chat and Knute will re-read your roster and the current injury picture before it answers. A continuous intraday watch is planned, not shipped.

How it works

How the Knute AI Start/Sit Assistant works

Most start/sit columns are 48 hours old by lock time and know nothing about your roster. Knute reads your roster, the injuries, and the matchups, and gives you a call for your team, not a generic ranking.
