Hiring mods, answering tickets, running a giveaway. Sometimes all in the same weekend. Moderation is only part of what staff end up doing.
Discortics covers those jobs in one dashboard. Here's how it compares with Maki for applications, support and giveaways, and what Maki offers separately.
TL;DR
- Hiring rounds stay organized: 7 free application forms, 20 questions each, reviewed with Accept and Deny in Discord.
- Support rushes get owners: intake questions, claims, ratings and transcripts across 5 free ticket panels.
- Giveaways for members, not alts: role and activity requirements, up to 15 running at once free.
- Where Maki wins: music playback and thread-based tickets, if those are essential.

Both bots cover moderation and leveling. Applications, ticket handling and giveaway requirements are where we'd look next.
Applications with a review flow
With Discortics Applications, applicants go through the form step by step in DMs: written answers, multiple choice, file uploads, up to 20 questions per form. Every submission lands in one log channel with Accept and Deny buttons. Staff can review it there instead of keeping a separate spreadsheet.
You get 7 forms free, so the staff round doesn't share a form with partner requests. Free reviews stay in Discord; saved dashboard answer browsing needs Prime or Custom.
Ticket intake and claims
Discortics Tickets asks intake questions before the private channel opens, so "same issue here" arrives with a description attached. Staff claim tickets so two mods don't answer the same person, and transcripts keep the record after close. Ratings tell you how the rush actually went. 5 ticket panels are free.
Giveaway entry requirements
Discortics Giveaways support role and activity requirements, so entries can be limited to established members instead of whoever joined an hour ago. Up to 15 giveaways can run at once on the free bot, so the anniversary drop doesn't block your weekly one.
One dashboard for the team
Applications, tickets, giveaways and moderation cases live in one dashboard. Staff can catch up there without checking several bots.
What Maki does that we don't
Be honest about your server. Maki explicitly offers music playback, and its support runs on private threads. If either is essential, put that in the decision. Discortics is the better pick when applications, configurable giveaways and integrated staff tools are what your team leans on.
