The New York Times has introduced a Connections Bot, similar to the one used for Wordle. After you play, you can visit the bot to receive a numeric score and get an analysis of your answers. Additionally, players who are registered with the Times Games section can track their progress, including the number of puzzles completed, win rate, number of times they've achieved a perfect score, and their win streaks.
