bots without
babysitting

irc.bot runs your bots on our infrastructure. deploy your own code or pick one from the marketplace. they stay connected and restart if they crash.

uptime

your bot stays in the channel

we keep the process running and the connection open. you don't need a server, a screen session, or a laptop that never sleeps.

deploy

push code, bot goes live

point us at a git repo and we build on push. or upload a script. either way it's running in seconds.

networks

any network

libera, oftc, rizon, your own ircd, whatever. run bots on multiple networks from one account.

hostname

watchdog@bots.your.domain

on pro, your bots mask with a hostname you control. /whois shows your name, not ours.

recovery

it comes back on its own

if your bot crashes, we restart it with backoff. every plan, including free. logs are there when you want to see what happened.

terminal
# from a git repo
$ ircbot deploy --repo git@github.com:you/mybot.git
# or a single script
$ ircbot deploy --file bot.py --network libera
