Features

Everything the fleet ran on

Broadcast groups, 4 relay modes
Source channels fan out to destination communities as embed or plain, pinged or silent — ep / enp / np / nnp per destination.
Automated subscriber expiry warnings
Subscribers are warned on a loop before access ends — no manual bookkeeping, no forgotten expiries.
Auto-react rules
Emoji reactions on keywords, with per-channel blocks. Your feed stays alive without a human pressing buttons.
Keyword embed colors
Color-code alerts by keyword so readers can scan a busy channel at a glance.
Full white-label set* commands
Your bot's name, avatar, footer, icon, website and embed color — set in-app with commands, no rebuilds.
~35 prefix commands
The complete alert-broadcast command surface, refined over years of daily fleet use.
Self-hosted = your VPS, your data
One compiled binary plus a Docker Postgres on any Ubuntu/Debian box. You hold the token, the database and the dumps.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Do I own the Discord application?

Yes. You create your own application in the Discord developer portal, hold its token, and invite the bot under your own flag. We never hold your credentials — liability and control stay with you.

What kind of VPS do I need?

Any x86_64 box on Ubuntu 22.04+ or Debian 12+ with 1 GB RAM. Postgres runs via the bundled docker-compose file, and the bot ships as a single binary managed by systemd. A $5 VPS is enough.

What's not configurable?

Relay-mode semantics, the command set, and the license binding (your application ID) are fixed — changes arrive as our releases. Everything identity- and layout-related is yours: prefix, username, avatar, footer, embed colors, groups, destinations, expiry windows.

How does licensing work?

One license per bot instance, cryptographically bound to your Discord application ID and verified offline at startup. Move VPS freely — the bind is to the app, not the machine. A second bot under the same license is refused.
