Why Use Kite Instead of BotWiz
Free, Not a Trial
BotWiz gives your first bot 7 days for free. After that your bot goes offline until you pay. Kite's free plan keeps your bot online with no time limit.
Up to 10 Free Bots
You can make up to 10 bots on Kite without paying. Each one gets 24/7 hosting.
Let AI Build It
Describe what a command should do and Kite's AI adds and connects the blocks for you.
Open Source
Kite's code is on GitHub. You can see how your bot runs, or host Kite yourself.
Build Commands by Connecting Blocks
This is the /ban command from the moderation template. Each block is one step, and the lines between them set the order. You can import it with one click and change it however you like.
How to Switch From BotWiz
You keep your Discord application, so your bot keeps its name, avatar and servers.
- 1
Stop Your Bot
Turn your bot off in BotWiz, so the two don't answer at the same time.
- 2
Add It to Kite
Copy the bot token from the Discord Developer Portal, sign in to Kite and click on Create app.
- 3
Build Your Commands
Import a template, build commands from blocks or describe them to Kite's AI. Then deploy them.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Kite really free?
Yes. Your bot is hosted 24/7 for free. Premium plans give you higher limits, like more servers and commands, but you don't need one to run a bot.
Can Kite host my discord.js or discord.py bot?
No. Kite only runs bots built with its visual editor.
