Will my bot run 24/7?
One of the biggest reasons to host your bot with us instead of on your own machine is that it stays online even when your computer is off. This article explains how round-the-clock uptime works and what to do if your bot drops offline.
Does my bot stay online 24/7?
Yes. As long as your server is active and running, your bot stays online around the clock — you don't need to keep your own computer on or maintain a home connection. Once you press Start, your bot keeps running on our infrastructure until you stop it or the server is suspended.
What to do if your bot drops offline
If your bot goes offline unexpectedly, it's almost always something in your code or configuration rather than the host:
- Open the Console and read the most recent output — errors are printed there.
- Look for crashes, unhandled exceptions, or a token/connection problem.
- Press Start (or Restart) once you've addressed the cause.
Tip: A bot that crashes on startup will show the reason in the Console — that message is your fastest path to a fix.
Frequently asked questions
Will my bot restart itself if it crashes? Check the Console for the crash reason first. You can also use the Schedules tab to set up automatic restarts if you'd like an extra safety net.
Does anything pause my bot automatically? Your bot keeps running while the server is active. If a plan lapses or a server is suspended, it'll stop — keeping your plan active keeps the bot online.
