Bono Engineer is a race engineer for sim racing. Its current integration is Gran Turismo 7 on PlayStation. Run Bono on a computer to see live telemetry, hear coaching over the radio, and compare your laps after the session. A phone or tablet on the same network can act as a second dashboard.
Looking for GT7 telemetry, a race engineer for the PS5 or Discord radio for Gran Turismo 7? See the Bono Engineer website (in Portuguese, with an English summary).

What Bono does
Live telemetry and dashboard
- Finds the PlayStation on the local network or connects to an IP you enter. It automatically selects a compatible GT7 packet format (A, B,
~, or C) and reports connection and recording status.
- Shows speed, gear, revs and shift lights, driver inputs, tyre temperatures, fuel and estimated range when available, G forces, a track map, and lap and sector timing. The live delta can use your personal best, session best, or a captured reference.
- Uses the moving car on the GT7 pre-race screen to show a probable circuit in Live before your first lap. Layouts that share their opening stretch may need the full preview loop to distinguish them.
- Offers 11 views: Race, Large Delta, Tyres, Inputs, Engine and Gearbox, Map, Times, Fuel, G Forces, Corner Training, and a customizable widget grid.
- Saves dashboard layout, start view, and screen order per device. Use keyboard or touch gestures, toggle the lap-finish card, lock the controls, or select an active screen for another device from the PC.
- Shares the dashboard via a LAN address or QR code. Use fullscreen on a supported browser or the native Windows app, or add the web dashboard to a phone or tablet home screen.
Guided start and help
- A first-run assistant sets up the language and voice, the PS5 connection, the training style, the engineer and the dashboard layout, and resumes where you stopped. Settings → About → Run the assistant again reopens it.
- A guided tour of the live dashboard (on the built-in demo, so it needs neither a PS5 nor a car on track) and of the analysis area, plus one-time hints. Open Help in the menu for short guides by topic in Portuguese, English and Spanish. The tours can also start from a link:
?tour=live or ?tour=analysis.
- The live screen always shows a context bar with the track, the car and the engineer state. A three-step guide explains the recognition lap, and you can choose the track before the session starts so the engineer talks from lap 1.
Race engineer and Discord
- Training offers Learn Track, Gain Time, Consistency, and Free Practice profiles. Learn Track can give a simple call such as “light braking in 100 metres” or a detailed call such as “50% brake in 100 metres” when a usable reference is available.
- Qualifying warns about cold tyres on the out-lap, stays quiet on the flying lap, and announces the result after the line. Race prioritizes tyre and fuel alerts when the telemetry supports them. Both modes can run without a reference lap.
- Choose Essential, Detailed, or Muted speech. Configure lap summaries, optional positive feedback, and the lead time for coaching. The radio button beside the live menu and lock shows or hides the radio card while leaving the audio output active.
- Choose from three built-in neural voices in each language (Voice 1, 2 and 3). The same call catalogue is available for local playback and Discord. Live coaching decisions come from telemetry rules and can be logged for replay and debugging.
- Create Engineer tasks in a track’s Tasks tab, or review proposals from AI Coach or an MCP agent in Home → Agent proposals. Approve the proposals you want the radio to speak at the chosen point on the lap. Allow a one-time download for the selected voice.
- Send the radio calls to a Discord voice channel and hear them through your PS5 headset. A setup wizard creates the invite link and lists the voice channels; you only paste the token of your own bot (no user ID needed). The Windows app stores the token using Windows encryption. A ten-beep test measures the end-to-end delay, and Bono uses that delay and recent speed to schedule calls earlier. See the Discord setup guide in Portuguese.
