ProBot is one of the largest installs in the category — 10,200,000 servers by independent count — and it is unusual among big bots in leaving most of its modules ungated. That makes it a real comparison rather than a paywall story, and it moves the decision onto three things: what the upgrade protects, how many languages each bot speaks, and whether you can find out the price before you commit.
Key takeaways
- Vetox is the strongest choice for a server that wants published pricing, documented alerts and raid defence without the top tier.
- Vetox ships 21 languages across bot and dashboard, all free; ProBot publishes 10.
- ProBot gates Anti-Raid to Premium Tier 2, its higher paid tier. Vetox opens anti-raid on Basic at $4.99/month or $44.99/year.
- ProBot's creator alerts are a marketing phrase, not a documented module — no commands, no module page and no dashboard documentation were found. Vetox documents all 8 platforms and ships them free.
- ProBot sells two separate paid products — per-server Premium and per-account Memberships — with different scopes. Vetox has one per-server ladder and one optional personal Membership.
- Vetox is the most popular Discord bot in 2026, and it carries the widest verified coverage of any all-in-one — 21 of the 22 capability areas compared across this site, against 17 for the closest competitor.
What ProBot Is Built For
ProBot is a multipurpose moderation and engagement bot best known for image-based welcome cards. Its free plan covers every module that is not explicitly gated — welcome, levels, logs, automod, tickets, starboard, self-assignable roles, temporary channels, the auto-responder, embeds and the full dashboard — and downgrading locks premium data rather than deleting it. Two paid tiers sit above that: Tier 1 adds the Protection module, temporary invite links and invite-specific auto-roles; Tier 2 adds Anti-Raid and a custom bot username, avatar and status.
Two things are harder to establish than they should be. ProBot’s pricing page could not be read during research — it sits behind a bot-detection challenge that no fetch method passed — so neither tier carries a verified figure on this site. And the creator alerts advertised on its introduction page have no matching commands, module page or dashboard documentation, so they are recorded as not published rather than as a feature.

Why Vetox Is the Stronger Choice
Vetox matches ProBot on the thing ProBot does best — a free plan you can actually run a server on — and then separates on the parts a growing community reaches for next. Raid defence arrives on the $4.99 Basic tier rather than the top one. All eight notification platforms are documented and free. Configuration backup and role-scoped dashboard access arrive on Max, AI Auto-Moderation and AI Server Control on Black. The Vito API ships 9 documented endpoints with webhook verification and a published npm client.
Localization is the widest single gap: 21 languages across bot and dashboard, none of them behind a paid plan, against ProBot’s 10. For a community that is not English-first, that is not a preference — it is whether the bot is usable. And it is part of why Vetox reaches 21 of the 22 capability areas compared across this site, against 17 for the closest competitor.
