Theta Edgecloud expands its sports partnership to create a “clutchbot” for the Houston Rocket
Theta Labs, a leading provider of decentralized cloud infrastructure for AI, media and entertainment, and Houston Rocket have announced the launch of their team’s novel, AI-powered mascot, “Clutchbot.” “Clutchbot” is built to enhance the digital fan experience, provide real-time information on the official Houston Rockets website, and serve as a digital mascot for fans to get involved 24/7.
Mascots will use custom AI agents specially trained with rockets and NBA data to answer fan inquiries about upcoming games, tickets, lineups, statistics, venue information and team news. Fans can interact with agents by asking questions such as, “When will the next game be?” Or, “How many points did the Rockets score last night?” and “How many championships did the Rockets win?” “Clutchbot” will be able to provide accurate, up-to-date answers in real-time from the Houston database and the NBA API.
The collaboration will go beyond stadium and social media posts to promote a more immersive and accessible fan experience. By creating interactive mascots with deep team and league knowledge, fans can become part of action like never before.
Fans that began next season in the fall of 2025 can interact with the “clutchbot” through the official Houston Rockets website.
