Announcement: coming soon, Discord first

Custom Discord bots you actually own.

Tell Aspectobots what your server needs. It builds the bot, hosts it, and on paid plans hands you the source code under the MIT license, so your bot keeps running no matter what happens to us.

# requests

What server owners keep asking for

We read a year of r/Discord_Bots, October 2025 to September 2026. These are real requests, paraphrased with usernames removed, each with the Aspectobots feature that answers it. Every one is planned for launch.

Safety

A bot host leaked every token and servers got wiped

A hosted AI bot service was breached. Attackers used the stolen bot tokens to delete channels and roles and ban members in every server where those bots had Administrator.

AspectobotsAPP

Each token is encrypted with its own key, stored away from the app database. Bots ask only for the permissions their features need, never Administrator by default. Mass bans and channel deletes are rate-capped, and you can rotate a token in one step.

Safety

Auto-ban spam accounts by name pattern

Hundreds of spam accounts join every day with names shaped like word1234_56789. Is there a bot that bans that pattern on join?

AspectobotsAPP

Join filters match usernames with wildcards or regular expressions, check account age and default avatars, then ban, kick or hold new arrivals in a quarantine role.

Safety

Stop horrific images before anyone sees them

Someone posted disturbing images in a friend's server. The only options seem to be turning images off for everyone or taking the risk.

AspectobotsAPP

Image screening holds uploads from new or unverified members, checks them with an image safety classifier, and sends anything flagged to a staff queue instead of the channel.

Safety

Verification without profiling or outside websites

No alt tracking, no invasive data, no sign-in on another site. Something harder than a single button, done inside Discord.

AspectobotsAPP

Verification runs inside Discord with image and pattern challenges. It stores pass or fail and a timestamp, swaps Unverified for Verified, and keeps nothing else.

Moderation

A word filter that matches whole words

Our filter flags "something" because it contains "meth". We need whole-word matching, our own punishments, and a warning in the log channel.

AspectobotsAPP

Each filter entry chooses whole word, contains, or pattern matching. Hits climb a ladder you set (warn, timeout, kick) and every hit lands in your log channel.

Moderation

Questions in DMs, a human approves entry

The bot should DM questions I wrote, and a staff member reads the answers and approves people before they see any channel.

AspectobotsAPP

Entry interviews collect answers into a staff review queue with approve, deny and follow-up buttons. The same flow handles staff applications.

Moderation

Let members delete their own messages

A clean command that wipes the caller's own messages and nobody else's.

AspectobotsAPP

/clean mine is scoped to the caller, with a daily limit and a log entry.

Community

Anonymous venting that trolls can't abuse

Our mental health server needs anonymous venting. Trolls abuse it, but when we turned on logging, members found out and stopped using it.

AspectobotsAPP

Sealed posts stay anonymous to everyone. A name is revealed only when a post is reported and two staff members agree, and every reveal is logged where members can see it.

Community

Opt-in check-ins for members who vent

People who only show up to vent should hear from us again when things are calmer.

AspectobotsAPP

Members pick a check-in role and a schedule. The bot sends a short DM and routes any reply that asks for help to a private staff channel.

Community

Our clan XP bot died with its developer

Clans earned XP together and admins gave out house points with multipliers. Then the developer disappeared and the bot stopped working.

AspectobotsAPP

Factions give teams shared XP, staff points, multipliers and weekly standings. On paid plans you hold the source, so your bot can't vanish with its maker.

Community

25 YouTube feeds without paying per feed

Every alert bot we tried stops at 5 or 10 channels unless we pay.

AspectobotsAPP

Live alerts for YouTube, Twitch, Kick and game servers going online or offline. 10 feeds free, no cap on paid plans.

Community

Animated welcome cards

A welcome GIF with the new member's name and avatar, instead of a static image with text on it.

AspectobotsAPP

Welcome cards with animated templates and placeholders for name, avatar, member number and join date. Bring your own background or start from ours.

Community

Voice XP with a daily cap

Members should earn XP in voice too, but only up to a daily limit so nobody farms it by idling.

AspectobotsAPP

Levels count voice time with a daily cap, AFK detection and a check for people sitting alone and muted.

Automation

A clock tower for our roleplay calendar

One in-game day lasts a real week, so we need 24 scheduled posts and channel renames each week, visible on a web dashboard.

AspectobotsAPP

The scheduler has a calendar view for timed posts, channel renames, custom clocks and time scales. It also covers a UTC clock channel and daily name swaps.

Automation

Randomized daily weather for our setting

Temperature ranges by season, plus separate chances of rain, snow and thunderstorms, posted every morning.

AspectobotsAPP

Generators roll your own tables and ranges on a schedule and post the result with your message template.

Automation

Announce when someone gets a specific role

The bot we use can only do this for three roles.

AspectobotsAPP

Triggers react to role changes, joins, boosts and keywords with any message or action. No cap on how many you create.

Automation

Denied the message content permission

Discord turned down my request and said to use slash commands, but some of my features are not commands.

AspectobotsAPP

Features are built on slash commands, buttons, modals and AutoMod events first, and ask for message content only when truly needed. Each bot is your own app in your own servers, so most never face that review.

Games

Raffles with different ticket counts

Each member holds a different number of raffle tickets. Also, movie night polls where people who actually watched get an extra vote.

AspectobotsAPP

Weighted raffles and polls. Weights come from roles, activity or a ledger staff can edit, and votes can stay hidden until the poll closes.

Games

Loot drops and a crown passed by reactions

Active members earn loot boxes with rare cosmetic roles. And a crown role that moves to whoever gets the most reactions, for a limited reign.

AspectobotsAPP

Role games: activity drops, cosmetic role rarities, and reaction-driven titles that expire on a timer you set.

Games

An economy with our own currency

We want to choose the currency's name and look so it fits our server's theme.

AspectobotsAPP

Name your currency, pick its symbol, stock your shop and set how people earn, with a transaction log staff can audit.

# ownership

Who owns what, in plain terms

Ownership is the reason Aspectobots exists. Here is what each plan gives you. The full ownership terms include the license texts.

Paid bots are MIT from the first build

When a paid plan builds your bot, its code is licensed to you under the MIT license. Use it, change it, sell it, host it anywhere. MIT can't be taken back, so every version you export stays yours even if you cancel.

Full ownership moves the copyright to you

After 12 paid months, or on day one with a one-time build, we assign the copyright in your bot's code to you in writing. Then you can pick any license, including a closed one. The shared runtime every bot uses stays MIT from us.

Free and ad-supported bots stay hosted

Resident and Commons bots run on our servers under a hosted use license. Your data, settings and Discord application are yours and export as JSON any time, but the generated code isn't licensed for redistribution. Upgrade and it becomes MIT from that build on.

No ads inside your server, ever

Discord's developer policy doesn't allow bots to send ads or share Discord data with ad networks, and we agree with it. Commons shows ads only on our website and dashboard. We don't sell data on any plan.

# faq

Questions

Not covered here? Put it in the notes when you join the roster and we'll answer before launch.

When can I start building?

There's no date yet. Aspectobots will open in stages, starting with Discord. Roster members hear first and get access in the order they joined, and saved sketches are built first.

How does Aspectobots relate to Aspectora?

Aspectobots is part of Aspectora, the modular platform for running every kind of business site. It's built and supported by Sym Services, the team behind Aspectora.

Why Discord first?

That's where the demand is, and doing one platform well beats doing nine badly. Twitch and Telegram are next. Use Notify me in the platform list to tell us what you want.

What does the MIT license let me do?

Run it, change it, sell it, bundle it into something else. The one condition is keeping the copyright and license notice in copies. After full ownership, even that is your call for your bot's own code.

What happens to my bot if I cancel?

Hosting stops at the end of the billing period. Every export you made stays yours under MIT, so export once more and run it on your own machine or any host. If you passed 12 paid months, the copyright is already yours.

Why isn't the ad-supported plan MIT?

Ads pay for the hosting, and they only pay while the bot runs with us. Giving away the code would remove what funds the plan. Your data and settings are still yours, and upgrading makes the code MIT from that build on.

Will ads ever show up in my Discord server?

No, on any plan. Commons ads appear only on the Aspectobots website and dashboard. Your members never see them.

Who qualifies for the Duty Rate?

Firefighters, EMS, police, dispatchers, active duty, reserve and veteran members of the armed services, nurses, doctors, licensed electricians and plumbers. A verification service confirms it and tells us only yes or no. You re-check once a year.

How do you keep my bot token safe?

Each token is encrypted with its own key, stored separately from the app database. Bots request only the permissions their features need. Mass bans and channel deletes are rate-capped, and you can rotate a token from the dashboard in one step.

Can it play music?

It plays internet radio streams and audio files you have rights to. We won't ship YouTube playback, since it breaks YouTube's terms and is why several big music bots shut down.

# join

Aspectobots isn't open yet

This page announces what we're building. The plans, prices and features show what's coming, and none of them can be bought or used yet. The only thing open today is the roster.

We'll open in stages, starting with Discord. There's no date yet, and roster members hear first.
