Discord Onboarding Bot
From stranger to community member in 60 seconds
Smart button-based workflow that automates member onboarding, role assignment, and welcome sequences.
The Problem
A fast-growing Discord community was manually welcoming 50+ new members daily, assigning roles one by one, and struggling to maintain engagement - admins were burning out.
What We Built
We built a custom Discord bot connected to an n8n webhook pipeline that: (1) detects new member joins, (2) sends a personalized welcome DM with onboarding steps, (3) presents interactive buttons for role selection, (4) assigns roles automatically based on user choice, and (5) posts a public welcome message in the #general channel.
