Why Use Kite Instead of VibeBot

Your Own Bot for Free

VibeBot's free option is a shared bot that always has the VibeBot name and avatar. Your own bot needs Lite ($5/month) or Pro ($10/month) after the trial. On Kite your bot has your own name and avatar for free.

See Every Step

When Kite's AI builds a command, you get connected blocks you can read and change. You don't need to read code to know what your bot does.

Up to 10 Free Bots

VibeBot's plans include 1 bot and each extra bot costs $5 a month. You can make up to 10 bots on Kite without paying.

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 VibeBot

You keep your Discord application, so your bot keeps its name, avatar and servers.

  1. 1

    Stop Your Bot

    Turn your bot off in VibeBot, so the two don't answer at the same time.

  2. 2

    Add It to Kite

    Copy the bot token from the Discord Developer Portal, sign in to Kite and click on Create app.

  3. 3

    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?

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.

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.
