Short answer

How do I report match results with my AI?

You tell your AI who won a specific set, and it uses the Start.gg connection to submit that data and update the tournament standings. This keeps your brackets current without you having to click through the Start.gg dashboard manually.

Where the data goes.

Tournament updates

Your AI handles the data entry so the tournament stays live and accurate.

MATCH DATA

Updated scores

The AI sends the winner and loser info directly to the event. Your tournament bracket reflects the new standings immediately.

BRACKET LOGIC

New seeding

After a set is reported, the AI can adjust the seeding for the next phase. This ensures the bracket flows correctly based on recent wins.

EVENT INFO

Correct event IDs

The AI identifies the specific tournament you are working on. This prevents you from accidentally reporting scores to the wrong event.

HUMAN REVIEW

Manual oversight

You remain in control of the tournament. The AI only performs the specific updates you request, leaving all other administrative settings to you.
