Hinru · FM Backroom
Comparison
Plenty of managers bolt ChatGPT onto their save, and it helps. What nobody mentions is the upkeep. You type the squad in, you rebuild the context, you correct the roles it gets wrong. Every session.
Ask it how to break down a low block and you'll get a good answer. Overload the wide areas, draw the defenders out, shoot from range. All correct, and all true of any team in any league, which is the problem. It doesn't know your left-back is the only one who can actually cross.
So you fill the gap yourself. You paste the squad in, explain how you play, and if you can remember it, the deal you made three seasons back. The advice is only ever as good as the ten minutes of setup you can be bothered to do.
| A free chatbot | Hinru | |
|---|---|---|
| Knows your save | You paste it in again every session. | It's already there. You filled it in when you started. |
| Who answers | One voice, doing every job. | Six of them. The scout doesn't do the money. |
| Knows which FM you play | It'll hand you duties FM26 took out. | You told it which FM you play, so the roles it names are the ones on your screen. |
| The setup | A prompt you write, then keep fixing. | None. |
| How the call turned out | It knows what you told it. Nobody types back in how the season went. | The result goes back onto the decision it came from. That is where a rule comes from. |
| Picking back up | Ten minutes rebuilding context before you get an answer. | The call you were mid-way through is on the Desk. |
| Your record | Gone when the tab closes. | Yours, and kept the way you made it. Nothing gets tidied up behind you. |
| Runs on | The chatbot you already pay for. | The same kind of assistant. Your account or ours. |
Hinru isn't a replacement for that assistant. It's what turns it from a stranger into your backroom.
The stranger: "Against a low block, overload the wide areas, use a target man and shoot from range. Paste in your squad and I'll have a proper look."
Hinru: "We've cracked a side this deep before. You went 4-2-3-1, doubled the left, and it broke on 71'. Same trap, or something new?"
Because they were there.
Like a real assistant manager, it sharpens your calls, it doesn't make them for you. A second screen, not a second game. Every decision is still yours.
