Ownership
Runs on your machine.
No monthly fees. No shared rate limits. No telemetry leaving your network. Your members' data belongs to you, stored wherever you put it — full stop.
Your community,
on your own terms.
A Discord bot platform that runs on your machine, stores your data, and does exactly what you configure — nothing more.
Why self-host
Built for owners
who need control.
Intelligence
AI that listens.
Bring your own model — OpenAI, a local LLM, or anything with an API. Context-aware. Guild-specific. Always under your control.
Extensibility
Grows with plugins.
Every capability is a plugin. Install only what your server needs, remove what it doesn't, and ship your own in under 50 lines of JavaScript.
Administration
A full admin panel, included.
Every setting your server needs — XP thresholds, ticket flows, anti-raid rules, economy rates — exposed through a clean web dashboard. No Discord commands needed. Guild-by-guild, all in one place.
"No fees. No lock-in.
Just your community, running exactly
the way you want it to." The whole point of self-hosting
What's included

for elsewhere — included.
