If you run a Discord community, you probably run five bots. One for moderation, one for tickets, one for leveling, one for reaction roles, maybe one more for stats. Each one has its own dashboard. Each one has its own premium tier. None of them talk to each other, so the moderator who sees the same user cause trouble in #general, open three tickets, and farm XP in #spam can't connect those dots without five tabs open.
Kovra replaces that stack with three bots — Guard, Desk, and Rise — that share one dashboard, one database, and one tier. You open a member's profile and see every case, every ticket, every level-up. You enable AutoMod once and it works across the whole server. You pay one Premium subscription and unlock everything.
What's built so far
- Guard — full moderation stack. Ban / kick / mute / warn / note, with cases that work from both the dashboard and the
/modslash command. AutoMod with ten rule types. Anti-raid lockdown. Anti-nuke with audit-log actor lookup. Verification gate. Starboard. Comprehensive logging with per-event-class channel routing. Warn decay, auto-role on join, role persistence on rejoin. Reaction roles with reaction / button / dropdown types. - Desk — ticket panels with embeddable buttons + form responses. Priority flags. Plaintext transcripts on Free, HTML transcripts on Premium. Auto-close on staleness with reopen window.
- Rise — message and voice XP, quadratic level curve, up to 50 role rewards, rank cards with accent-color customization on Premium. Public leaderboard. Birthdays. Temp voice hubs.
Who it's for
Mid-to-large Discord communities. 500 to 50 000 members. Gaming servers, crypto communities, creator communities, SaaS user communities. Servers where a small mod team needs a proper tool instead of a pile of bots they keep forgetting the syntax for.
If your server is under 100 members and you just need reaction roles, the free tier still works — but you'll probably find Kovra overkill. That's fine. We built this for communities that have actual moderation workload.
Pricing
Free is genuinely complete. Full moderation, AutoMod, anti-nuke, verification gate, comprehensive logging, 20 custom commands, 15 role rewards. Premium is $5.99/mo, $59/yr, or $99 lifetime — all three grant the same 15 gates (Kovra Custom, unlimited caps, social alerts, retention analytics, HTML transcripts, etc.). Agency is a $20/mo add-on on top of Premium that strips branding for client servers.
No per-server license keys. No upsells hidden in config pages. One price, one product.
What's next
Free and Premium are both open for business. Expect regular posts here as we ship — we'll write about the interesting engineering decisions (why we picked LemonSqueezy over Stripe for EU launch, how the Action Queue keeps moderator actions auditable across dashboard + slash commands, why the dashboard is SSE-powered end-to-end) and the product trade-offs (what we keep in Free vs. Premium, and why).
