# Discortics vs Dyno: The Better Free Community Toolkit

Three saved embeds sounds fine until you've used them for rules, roles and events. Then you need one for partners. Already out.

Dyno's free limits are **3 embeds, 1 ticket panel, 3 reaction role menus, 3 giveaways lasting up to a week, 3 forms and 3 autoroles**. Its core AutoMod filters are free, but the limits get awkward as you add things.

Discortics gives you more room on the free plan. Here's the comparison.

**TL;DR**

- **Room to grow, free:** 20 embeds, 5 ticket panels, 15 self-role panels and 7 forms versus Dyno's 3, 1, 3 and 3.
- **Milestone giveaways that last:** 15 concurrent giveaways running up to 180 days, versus Dyno's 3 capped at one week.
- **Know which rule fired:** per-rule AutoMod logs and Anti-Nuke recovery are free; Dyno charges or lacks them.
- **Levels and live alerts, day one:** XP and YouTube, Twitch and Kick alerts are free, not on paid Dyno plans.

## Stop rationing your embeds

Discortics includes **20 saved layouts** in [Embeds](/features/embeds), **5 multi-option panels with intake forms and ratings** in [Tickets](/features/tickets), **15 reaction, button or dropdown panels** in [Self Roles](/features/selfroles), and **15 concurrent giveaways running up to 180 days** in [Giveaways](/features/giveaways). More room if you run several events or panels.

Recruiting staff? **7 DM and web forms** in [Applications](/features/applications), with file uploads, RE2 regex validation, and interview tickets. You can keep different recruitment rounds in separate forms.

## Know which rule fired, without paying for it

Dyno's free AutoMod catches the classic stuff. Sending each rule to its own log channel takes paid Advanced Automod, and there's no Anti-Nuke recovery if a staff account gets hijacked.

On Discortics it's all free:

1. **[Autopilot](/features/autopilot):** anti-spam, anti-flood, anti-raid, mass-mention limits, phishing and NSFW domain screening, Honeypot scam-trap channels, and per-category or per-rule log overrides.
2. **[Moderation](/features/moderation):** numbered cases, timed mutes and bans without a 14-day or 3-month free cap, slowmode, purge, lockdowns, and follow-up buttons right on the case log.
3. **[Anti-Nuke](/features/anti-nuke) and [Verification](/features/verification):** role stripping plus channel and role restoration when an admin account goes rogue, with Captcha, Password, or Advanced VPN and alt checks at the door.

## Levels and live alerts, day one

Dyno puts **Levels** on its Standard plan and **YouTube, Twitch or Kick alerts** on a higher Premium tier. Discortics turns on [Levels](/features/levels), [Economy](/features/economy) and [Stream Notifications](/features/notifications) on the free Public bot. Your regulars earn roles and your streamers get their go-live ping without anyone opening a wallet.

## Try the tools you need

Start with the [Moderation guide](/guides/moderation), browse [all modules](/features), and check [Premium & Custom plans](/premium) if you need more capacity. Try the things your staff actually uses before moving everything over.
