Everything a server owner needs to install and run Nydex — no support ticket required.

Getting Started

Nydex is a Discord platform that replaces the usual stack of separate bots — moderation, AutoMod, security, leveling, giveaways, and automation — with one dashboard and one bot on your server.

The fastest path: install the bot, complete the 5-step setup wizard, and Nydex enables a sensible default configuration you can adjust from the dashboard afterward.

Installation

  1. Click Add to Discord on the homepage and authorize Nydex for your server. You need the Manage Server permission on the server you select.
  2. You'll land on the setup wizard — pick which modules you want active (moderation, engagement, giveaways, etc.).
  3. Invite your staff team from the dashboard, or let them apply through a staff application form Nydex generates for you.
  4. You're done — the dashboard home page tracks setup progress with real signals (roles configured, first moderation action taken, etc.), not just a checklist you can dismiss.

Server Setup

Every feature area — moderation, AutoMod, security, engagement, economy, automation — has its own settings page under the dashboard. Locked (paid-plan) features stay visible with an upgrade prompt rather than disappearing, so you can see what exists even on the free plan.

Moderation

Warn, timeout, kick, ban, softban, and voice-mute actions all go through one enforcement engine with role-hierarchy checks (staff can never act on someone with an equal or higher role, and never on the bot's own role or above). Every action is logged to a case history.

An escalation ladder can automatically apply a harsher action once a member crosses a configured warning count, and won't double-apply the same tier twice for the same case.

AutoMod

Automatic detection for spam, duplicate messages, mass mentions, invite links, a domain blacklist, and excessive caps/repeated characters. AutoMod actions route through the same moderation engine as manual staff actions — there's only one enforcement path, not a separate parallel system.

Security

Anti-raid detection watches join velocity and can automatically quarantine new members or lock the server down during a spike. Anti-nuke watches for mass channel/role/webhook/ban/kick actions from the Discord audit log and can alert, lock down, or act against the responsible account — with a trusted-actor allowlist so your own admins never trigger it.

Giveaways

Giveaways support weighted entries (e.g. bonus tickets for boosters or specific roles), duplicate-entry prevention, and a seeded fair draw so results are reproducible and auditable rather than an unverifiable black box. Eligibility is re-checked live at draw time, not just at entry time.

Economy & XP

A configurable currency (name and symbol are yours to set) with message-based earning, a daily reward, and a shop where you define items — including role rewards granted automatically on purchase. Every balance change is a single atomic transaction, so concurrent rewards never get lost.

Automation

Build custom slash commands as trigger → conditions → actions rules — no code. Actions are limited to a fixed, safe set (grant/remove a role, send a message, DM a member, award currency or XP, log an event); there's no arbitrary code execution or webhook action, by design.

AI Studio

A paid-plan toolset built for server owners who also run a YouTube channel: it finds likely-viral moments in a video transcript for Shorts, generates thumbnail concepts from a reference photo, and can draft scripts and analyze competitor channels. Separately, Nydex can use AI to help screen staff applications — scoring fit and flagging likely AI-generated answers — as an assist for your team, not an auto-reject.

Commands

Beyond Custom Commands, Nydex ships built-in slash commands for moderation, economy, and giveaways. The exact command list depends on which modules your plan and setup have enabled — check the dashboard's module pages for the current set on your server.

Permissions

Dashboard access is role-based. The built-in roles are:

  • System Owner — full access, including billing and team management.
  • Host — full operational access, including security and moderation configuration.
  • Co Host — day-to-day moderation, AutoMod, and role management, without billing or security configuration.
  • Management — staff-ops and audit visibility.
  • Casino Manager, Creator, Editor — scoped access to a single module (casino admin, or AI Studio).

Pricing

Nydex has two plans: a genuinely usable Free tier, and a $15/month Premium plan that unlocks AI Studio, CSV exports, the casino module, CRM, and partner tracking. See the pricing page for the full comparison.

FAQ

Do I need to remove my other bots first?

No — you can run Nydex alongside existing bots and turn features off/on per module as you migrate.

What permissions does Nydex need on Discord?

Standard moderation/management permissions for whichever modules you enable — you approve the exact permission set during installation, and can review or revoke it from Discord's own server settings at any time.

Is there a trial for the Premium plan?

Trial availability depends on current promotions — check the pricing page or your dashboard's billing settings for what's currently offered.
