AI Discord bot · Guardy AI on every plan

AI that sets up and guards your server.
You set the limits.

Guardy AI adds optional AI to Guardy Bot, the free Discord bot with a web dashboard. Ask Guardy makes the server changes you ask for in a chat, and nothing changes until you approve. AI Shield catches the scams and spam your AutoMod rules miss. Every plan includes a monthly AI allowance: 150 credits on Free, 1,500 on Premium.

Ask Guardy makes server changes you approve in a chat, and AI Shield catches the scams and spam your rules miss. Both are on every plan, with 150 free AI credits a month.

Ask GuardyEvery plan

Ask for a change. Nothing happens until you approve.

Ask Guardy is a private AI chat for running your server. Tell it what you need in plain words, and it reads your server and proposes the exact changes. You approve them, and Guardy Bot makes them. Changed your mind? Undo a change it made.

  1. 1
    Ask in your own words

    In the dashboard, or with /ask in Discord, where the chat continues in your DMs.

  2. 2
    Check the proposal

    Guardy lists every change it would make. Nothing on your server changes yet.

  3. 3
    Approve, or undo later

    Approve the changes you want (in Discord: Approve, then Confirm). You can undo a change Guardy made.

An example Ask Guardy conversation in Discord DMs. Your server and wording will differ.

  • Private to you

    Only the person who starts a conversation sees it. Server admins can use Ask Guardy, and moderators too when an admin switches that on. Nobody can approve a change they could not make in Discord themselves.

  • What it sets up in chat

    Channels, categories, roles and who can see a channel, a private mod log, Welcome messages, and the recommended AutoMod protections. For other features it points you to the right dashboard page.

  • 500 credits to get started

    Each new server gets a one-time setup budget of 500 credits for Ask Guardy, about 13 replies, valid for 30 days from the first time anyone opens Ask Guardy there. One budget per server, ever, and at most 3 per server owner. After that, a reply typically uses about 37 credits from the monthly allowance.

Four more AI features, one allowance

AI where the work already happens.

Guardy AI is off until a server admin turns it on. Each feature lives on the page where your team already does that job, and every AI result is marked AI with its reason.

AI ShieldEvery plan

An AI scam and spam filter that shows its work.

Your AutoMod rules run first on every message. When a message looks suspicious but the rules cannot decide, AI Shield checks it against your server’s policy. That keeps your credits for the messages that need a second look, and catches the scams, spam and phishing keyword rules miss.

  1. 1AutoMod rulesCheck every message first
  2. 2Rules cannot decideThe message looks suspicious
  3. AI Shield checks itAgainst your server’s policy

Three modes. You choose how far it goes.

  1. Mode 1

    Watch only

    Every server starts here for 7 days.

    Nothing changes. AI Shield reports what it would have done, so you can check its calls first.

    Strike
    No
    Kick or ban

  2. Mode 2

    Remove & review

    For servers that want scams gone fast.

    AI Shield removes the message and keeps a copy for a moderator to review.

    Strike
    No
    Kick or ban
    NoNot in this mode
  3. Mode 3

    Remove & strike

    Uses the strike ladder you already have.

    AI Shield removes the message and adds one strike. Warnings and timeouts then follow your strike ladder.

    Strike
    Yes, one per finding
    Kick or ban
    Held for a moderatorUnless the server owner allows them

  • Every action explains itself. Each AI call shows the category, a one-line reason and how sure the AI was (High or Medium).

  • Wrong call undoes it. One click removes the strike, lifts a timeout or ban it caused, and posts the removed message back.

  • Harassment goes to a person. In both remove modes, insults and threats AI Shield flags go to a moderator for review. They never become an AI strike.

  • A raid cannot drain the month. AI Shield uses at most a fifth of the monthly allowance in one day. Your rules keep enforcing after that.

Rules to settingsWant AI Shield to follow your own rules? Rules to settings turns your written server rules into an AI Shield policy and suggests AutoMod protections. Start with Turn my rules into settings on the AI Shield page; you can untick any suggestion, and nothing changes until you accept the plan. AI Shield works alongside AutoMod and Moderation.

Server planner · Describe with AIEvery plan

Describe the additions. Approve the plan.

In Server planner, Describe with AI turns your request into proposed channels, roles, permissions and Guardy settings. You see every change before anything happens. Ready templates are another starting point and use no AI credits.

  1. 1
    Describe additions

    In Server planner, tell Guardy AI what you want to add to this server.

  2. 2
    Check the plan

    Every channel, role, permission and module is listed. Switch off any line you do not want.

  3. 3
    Apply, or undo later

    Guardy Bot builds only what you approved. Undo this setup removes what that run created.

Check my server is a separate path in Server planner. It flags common permission risks and missing setup basics; you choose which supported fixes to apply. See what it checks.

An example AI Setup plan. Switch a line off and it is not built. Try it: this demo changes nothing in your server.

Built-in limits

  • AI Setup never deletes a channel or role while applying a plan.
  • It never grants Administrator, Manage Server, Manage Roles or Manage Webhooks.

An AI Setup plan typically uses about 12 credits, so Free’s monthly allowance covers about 12 plans.

Premium AI

Help for the people who do the work.

Ticket AI and Mod Assistant are part of Premium and Lifetime, and share the same monthly AI allowance. They draft and answer; moderation actions stay with your team.

Premium

Ticket AI

Answers common questions, suggests replies and summarises tickets.

  • AI answers: per panel, off by default. It answers a member’s first message only from that panel’s FAQ and saved replies, and always offers Talk to a human.
  • Suggest reply: drafts a reply for staff to check and send.
  • Summaries: on panels with Ticket AI switched on, a short summary is added to the transcript when a ticket closes.
  • If nothing in your FAQ fits, it says staff will reply. When the allowance runs out, tickets work as before.

See the Tickets module for panels, teams and transcripts.

An example AI answer from a panel’s FAQ, labelled as AI, with Talk to a human.

Premium

Mod Assistant

Briefs you on a member and drafts reasons, DMs and summaries.

  • Brief me: a short summary of a member’s cases (notes included), reports, appeals and AI Shield checks on your server.
  • Draft reason and Draft DM: a starting point you edit. The AI never messages the member.
  • Summarise: one-click summaries in the Mod queue and Appeals.
  • In Discord too: /ai brief, or right-click a member → Apps → Guardy: Brief me.

Each answer typically uses about 3 credits.

An example brief. You edit every draft; the AI never messages the member.

AI credits on each plan

A monthly AI allowance on every plan.

AI use is counted in credits. Your plan includes a monthly AI allowance that all AI features share. It resets each period and unused credits do not roll over.

What the allowance covers

Free’s 150 credits cover roughly 6,000 AI Shield checks a month, or about 12 AI Setup plans, or about 4 Ask Guardy replies on top of a new server’s 500-credit setup budget. Premium’s 1,500 credits go ten times as far. These are early estimates (about 0.025 credits per check); your dashboard switches to your own server’s averages once it has enough history.

Credit packs

  • 1,000credits$4.99
  • 2,500credits$9.99
  • 6,000credits$19.99

Premium and Lifetime servers can buy credit packs. The same packs cost the same in Guardy Bot’s Discord store. Bought credits are used only after the monthly allowance runs out, carry over, and last 12 months.

See every plan limit on the pricing page.

Privacy

What the AI sees, and what it never does.

AI features stay off until a server admin turns them on. Message content is never used to train AI models. Guardy Bot’s AI providers, TypeSafe AI, OpenAI and Anthropic, process it under a data processing agreement.

How Guardy AI compares

AI moderation, on the Free plan.

Of the bots we compare, none offers AI moderation on its free plan. Guardy Bot includes AI Shield and Ask Guardy on Free. These are the facts we checked on 27 and 30 September 2026.

  • Guardy BotAI moderation on Free
    • AI Shield on every plan
    • Ask Guardy applies approved changes on Free
    • 150 AI credits a month on Free
  • PeakBotAI on Pro and Agency

    AI moderation is on the Pro and Agency plans. Its AI Server Builder is free to try, but applying a build to a live server needs Pro ($8.25 a month, checked 30 September 2026). PeakBot also moderates images, which AI Shield does not.

    Guardy Bot vs PeakBot
  • MEE6No AI moderation found

    MEE6’s AI is chat and image generation, sold separately from Premium. We found no AI moderation. Different jobs.

Guardy AI questions

The straight answers about Guardy AI.

What it does, what it costs, and what it will never do without you.

01What is Ask Guardy?

A private AI chat for running your server, in the Guardy Bot dashboard or with /ask in Discord. Describe what you want, such as a private mod log or a welcome message, and Ask Guardy proposes the changes. Nothing changes until you approve, and you can undo a change it made. Each new server gets a one-time budget of 500 credits, about 13 replies, for 30 days from its first use (at most 3 servers per owner). After that, a reply typically uses about 37 credits of the monthly allowance.

02Does Guardy Bot have AI moderation?

Yes. AI Shield is an AI scam and spam filter for Discord, included on every Guardy Bot plan. Your AutoMod rules run first, and AI Shield checks the messages they find suspicious. It starts in a 7-day watch-only mode, then you choose whether it removes messages for review or removes them and adds strikes.

03Is Guardy AI free?

Ask Guardy, AI Shield, AI Setup and Rules to settings are included on every plan, including Free. Free includes 150 AI credits a month and Premium includes 1,500. Mod Assistant and Ticket AI are part of Premium and Lifetime.

04Can Guardy AI kick or ban members?

Not by default. You set the limits: in Remove & strike, AI Shield adds strikes to your strike ladder, and the warnings and timeouts on that ladder follow automatically. Kicks and bans that follow from an AI strike wait for a moderator unless the server owner allows them.

05What happens when the monthly AI allowance runs out?

Your AutoMod rules and every feature that does not use AI keep working as normal. AI features pause until the allowance resets at the start of the next period. Premium and Lifetime servers can keep going with bought credits, and AI Shield only spends bought credits if you allow it.

06Is my server’s content used to train AI models?

No. Message content from Discord is never used to train AI models. Guardy Bot’s AI providers process it under a data processing agreement and do not train on it.

07Does Guardy AI send messages to my members?

Only one feature does, and only if you turn it on: Ticket AI’s AI answers, per ticket panel. Those answers are labelled as AI and always offer a Talk to a human button. Everything else Guardy AI writes goes to your moderators, not to members.

08How do I turn on Guardy AI?

Open your server in the Guardy Bot dashboard, or type /ask in Discord to start Ask Guardy. AI Shield is under Safety. Server planner is in the sidebar, with Describe with AI and Check my server. Settings → Guardy AI shows your AI features and credits.
