AutoMod That Explains Itself_
Flood, links, invites, mentions, blocked words and more, each with its own limit, action and exemptions. Repeat offenders escalate automatically, and every action has a case you can review.
why it matters
Discord's built-in AutoMod stops at keywords
Discord's native AutoMod blocks keywords and some spam, but it can't time out repeat offenders progressively, check message floods per channel, or explain to your moderators why it acted.
Krypton AutoMod runs a set of rules you switch on individually. Each rule has its own limits, its own action (delete, warn, timeout from 1 minute to 28 days, kick or ban) and its own exempt roles and channels. Strikes stack into stricter punishments, and a mistaken action can be marked as a false positive so it stops counting.
At a glance
- Anti-spam & flood. Catch message floods, duplicate messages, mass mentions and attachment spam with limits you set per rule.
- Links & invites. Block links or only Discord invites, with allowed and blocked domain lists.
- Word filter. Whole-word and wildcard matching. Premium smart filters see through leetspeak, lookalike letters and hidden characters.
- Escalation. Strikes add up: the third offence can mean a longer timeout, the fifth a kick. You decide the ladder.

Questions about AutoMod
What is the best free Discord automod bot?
Krypton's AutoMod is free and covers spam, floods, links, invites, mentions and blocked words with per-rule actions, exemptions and escalating punishments. Premium adds smart filters, phishing and raid detection.
How is it different from Discord's built-in AutoMod?
Discord's AutoMod matches keywords. Krypton adds flood and duplicate detection, progressive punishments based on strikes, per-rule exemptions, and a case for every action that explains why it happened.
Can members suggest new rules?
Yes. Members can suggest a rule or an improvement, and server admins review suggestions. Nothing changes until an admin approves it.
Does it work alongside Anti-Nuke?
Yes. AutoMod handles message abuse; Anti-Nuke handles destructive admin actions like mass bans and channel deletions.
