WHAT’S NXST WITH XST CAPITAL: DIGITAL GAMING INDUSTRY: CEO INTERVIEW SERIES
Volume 31: RotoBot AI Co-Founder and CEO Aishik Lala
Join us as we dive into the sports intelligence sector with RotoBot AI Co-Founder & CEO Aishik Lala. In this insightful interview, XST Capital’s Founder, Joel Simkins, explores RotoBot’s evolution from a focused fantasy football advice tool into a rapidly expanding AI-native platform built for fantasy players and bettors across nearly every major sport.
Through a proprietary data foundation built on nearly one million real user prompts, deep league sync integrations across platforms like Sleeper, Yahoo, and ESPN, and a product philosophy built around personalization, RotoBot is working to solve a problem that generic content and chatbots can’t: giving each fan an answer grounded in their own team, their own league, and their own situation. Built around the belief that one-size-fits-all products are on their way out, RotoBot helps fans and bettors cut straight to the decision they’re actually trying to make, giving users personalized answers to their own questions, rather than generic stats and content.
Discover how Aishik and his co-founders combined firsthand experience building through the earliest days of the ChatGPT era with a hard-earned understanding of where general-purpose AI models fall short in sports contexts and how that shaped the platform’s roadmap. Aishik shares insights into RotoBot’s expansion strategy from NFL fantasy into NBA, MLB, UFC, and the World Cup, the surprising user data behind league sync adoption, and how nearly two years of limited traction shaped the discipline behind the company’s current momentum.
Aishik also discusses the broader shift he sees coming to sports content and distribution, from the rise of founder-led and creator-led brands to the death of generic, one-size-fits-all platforms, and why he believes fans are about to take back control over the information and decisions that shape how they play. Learn how RotoBot plans to keep deepening its personalization engine, expand across sports and use cases, and build toward a product where two completely different fans can open the same app and have genuinely different experiences.
Don’t miss this opportunity to hear from a thought leader in the AI-led sports intelligence sector and gain valuable insights into the future of online gaming.
