Arcane is the specialist for leveling. Every server gets message leveling, role rewards and leaderboards for free, and Premium adds voice leveling that skips members who are AFK, muted, deafened or idle, along with custom XP values, rank card backgrounds and weekly and monthly leaderboards. Around that core it is a capable general bot: channel counters, YouTube notifications, logging, welcome images, reaction roles and automod built on Discord's own AutoMod. The free plan is usable but tight in places, with 5 custom commands, 10 reaction roles and 1 hour of message logs. Premium costs $7 per month or $75 per year and raises those to 100 custom commands, 100 reaction roles and 12 hours of logs, and it includes a bot customizer for a custom name, avatar and banner. One premium purchase can be moved to another server once. If you already run Dyno or Sapphire for moderation, Arcane is a natural second bot.
