Why Use Kite Instead of SCNX
One Bot for Many Servers
An SCNX bot only works on the server it was made for. A Kite bot can join up to 100 servers on the free plan.
No Ad Check-Ins
To keep a free SCNX bot online, you watch a short ad every 7 days. Kite keeps your bot online without any check-ins.
No Branding
SCNX adds "Powered by scnx.xyz" to your bot's embeds, and removing all SCNX branding needs the Professional plan. Kite doesn't add any branding to your bot.
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 SCNX
You keep your Discord application, so your bot keeps its name, avatar and servers.

Build Your Commands
Import a template, build commands from blocks or describe them to Kite's AI. They show up in Discord when you save them.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Kite really free?

Do I need to know how to code?
No. You build commands by connecting blocks in a visual editor. You can also describe a command and Kite's AI builds it for you.
