Official game communities are an interesting category that we haven't explored or reached out to much yet. That's a great idea though, and I think it makes a lot of sense to think about doing that more.

Our bot is in ~26k servers right now, and the vast majority are mid-sized teams, in the 6-250 person range. I think our tools would be great for larger communities, and I think the needs would be pretty similar - but we haven't explored that too much yet.




I see - so you're basically focusing on smaller "organizations" and "amateur teams" I guess? Kind of like, I find 5 friends to play Overwatch, I invite them to a new server and your bot handles all our stuff, like an assistant/office manager in a small office? Then I think some kind of integration with ESL/FaceIT/toornament and all these other online leagues/tourney platforms would be dope to have...I guess.


Yeah, exactly. An example of something the bot does that teams really like is that if you're an Overwatch team (for instance) it will post a daily SR news update, showing the SR leaderboard and who gained the most SR in the last 24 hours. A lot of our features would work for both, but I think that's an example of one that works better for actual teams.

And yeah - competitive integrations would be way cool, and are something we're working on doing more of.
