Does BBO have an API for Robot providers?

Is BBO considering using other Robots (besides GIB) also?

We currently use three different robots on BBO:

• GIB
• Argine (the Funbridge engine)
• Ben (Lorand's AI bot, fine-tuned with additional tweaks to improve performance)

Here's an example of an earlier simulation featuring GIB, Argine, and Ben (note that Ben was in an earlier, weaker version at the time):

You can follow the latest simulations in the pinned topic in this forum (linked below). We've removed Argine from these results, as it's not a robot we maintain — and its performance wasn't great, likely because it's mostly optimized for SEF rather than 2/1:

You can play with Argine in daylongs labeled Acol, SAYC, or SEF. If you are in UK or France you get a free version of each daily, alongside the BXP version.

Ben is available in several places:

• As a free arcade game under Robot World → Try our AI Engine
• In the daily USA Inter-State with Ben and Canada Inter-Province with Ben (if you're located in the US or Canada)
• In Lorand's free daily Ben games

We can probably "hook" other robots in BBO like we did with Argine and Ben. I was trying to not talk about APIs because I'm not a tech. But the fact we use 2 external should imply that the answer is yes
