The project started as a small moderation bot and grew into one bot that replaces the pile most servers end up with: security and AutoMod, verification, tickets and modmail, logging, leveling, analytics, music, feeds and AI tools. Everything is configured from Discord or from the dashboard at lyx.lol/dashboard, and every feature can be turned off.

Lyx is run by a small team of volunteers and maintained in the open. The bot is free to use. Server Premium and User Premium pay for hosting, the AI features and the music servers; public pages show ads, which is explained in the privacy policy. Nothing from your servers is sold, and no message content is used for advertising.
