BATTISTA
AI question answering · RAG-powered · Self-hosted · Zero server lag · AI moderation
Your players have thousands of questions. You can't answer them all.
New players join your server and immediately ask the same questions.
Where do I start? How does this game mode work? What are the rules?
Until you have staff and a community, those questions go unanswered.
Players leave before they understand what makes your server worth staying for
Battista stays online 24/7. It knows your server because you teach it.

SYSTEM FLOW
FEED IT YOUR DOCS
Upload your guides, rules, FAQs, and game mode documentation. Battista indexes everything and builds its knowledge base from your content. It only answers what you've taught it. No hallucinations about your server.
DEPLOY TO YOUR SERVER
Install the Spigot plugin on your server. Connect it to the self-hosted backend via config.yml. Done. Players can start asking immediately.
IT RUNS ITSELF
Players ask via command, chat tag, or natural question detection. Battista responds in real time with zero server lag. It also monitors chat for toxic content and removes it automatically.

OPERATIONAL FAQ
Q: WILL IT MAKE UP ANSWERS ABOUT MY SERVER?

Q: HOW LONG DOES SETUP TAKE?
Under 30 minutes with Docker. The repository includes step-by-step instructions.
Q: WHICH LLM DOES IT USE?
Configurable. Supports multiple providers with model rotation and fallback. Local models are supported if you want zero API costs.
