Sift vs Dyno

Dyno is a solid dashboard bot with rule-based automod. Sift reads the conversation, blocks scam links for free, and gives your mods a case queue.

Dyno has been a default pick for years, and for good reason: a clean web dashboard, custom commands, auto roles, logging and a reliable automod. Its automod works on rules you write, like banned words, link filters and spam limits. Sift is built around the messages those rules miss.

What Dyno does well

  • A polished web dashboard for everything
  • Custom commands, auto roles and announcements
  • Mature, predictable rule-based automod and mod logs

Where Sift is different

  • Sift scores each message with the lines around it, so banter between friends isn't treated like an attack, and a nitro scam with no banned word still gets caught.
  • Scam and lookalike links are free and unlimited on Sift, no premium needed.
  • Borderline messages become case cards your mods approve or act on with one click, instead of getting silently deleted.
  • Anti-nuke and raid lockdown are part of the free plan.

Can you run both?

Plenty of servers keep Dyno for commands, roles and announcements, and let Sift handle moderation. Turn off Dyno's automod so the two don't both act on the same message.

Which one should you pick?

  • Pick Dyno if you mostly want a dashboard for commands, roles and simple word filters.
  • Pick Sift if your problem is the stuff word filters miss: scams, dodged filters and arguments that need a human call.
