ENGAGE IO vs ProBot for Gaming
A typical gaming setup runs 3 servers. ProBot costs monthly, 3 servers $15/mo (Premium Tier 1 × 3), against $0 for ENGAGE IO's engagement features.
The gap that matters for gaming servers
ProBot's free tier is the broadest here, moderation, leveling with role rewards, custom commands, reaction roles, and welcome cards all at $0, so a gaming server on a budget gets a lot for nothing. What it does not do is reward voice activity at all, which is where a clan actually spends its evenings, and it has no quest engine for tournament or attendance campaigns.
What ProBot costs at gaming scale
Three servers on Premium Tier 1 is $15 a month or $120 a year; Tier 2, the tier with anti-raid and a custom bot identity, is $30 a month or $240 a year for three. That is money spent on protection and branding rather than engagement mechanics, since neither tier adds voice rewards or quests.
Setup and migration for a gaming server
Keep ProBot for automod on the public server, which is what it is best at, and put voice-minute points and raffles on the scrim and tournament servers where attendance is the metric. Welcome images are watermarked on free, which is worth checking before a tournament influx sees them.
The switching mistake gaming servers make
One premium bot per server means a clan with three servers has three separate installs to unwind, and the third is invariably the dormant tournament server nobody checks. List every server the bot is in before starting, from the bot's own dashboard rather than memory.
| Cost line | ProBot | ENGAGE IO |
|---|---|---|
| ProBot monthly, 3 servers | $15/mo (Premium Tier 1 × 3) | $0 |
| ProBot effective monthly, 3 gaming servers | $15 on the cheapest published billing | $0 |
| ProBot three-year total, 3 gaming servers | $540 | $0 |
| ProBot per gaming server per year | $60 | $0 |
| ProBot per 1,000 gaming members per year | $36 at ~5,000 members | $0 |
You must buy a separate subscription per server, though a subscription can be transferred by inviting the premium bot elsewhere. Annual billing is a 50% discount per ProBot's docs.

FAQ
Does ProBot reward voice channel time?▼
No. ProBot has no voice activity rewards on free or either premium tier, so scrim hours are invisible to its XP leaderboard. ENGAGE IO awards points per voice minute with occupancy and mute checks, which is what makes attendance measurable.
What does ProBot premium add for a gaming server?▼
Tier 1 at $5 a month adds advanced protection and higher limits; Tier 2 at $10 adds anti-raid, a custom bot name and avatar, and ownership transfer. Useful during a raid or a tournament spike, but neither tier adds engagement mechanics such as quests or voice rewards.
Includes a 2-week premium trial when you add the bot.
