🚀 YAWBDB — What We've Built & What's Coming

Hey everyone! 👋

With the arrival of the Announcements system, it felt like the right moment to look back at everything we've shipped over the past months — and give you a glimpse of what's ahead.

🧠 AI Memory Management

One of the first big panel features. You can now browse, search, edit and delete everything your AI bot has stored for each server. Add entries manually to steer its behaviour — no more black-box memory.

🎛️Custom Model Endpoints

Every AI-powered feature (Auto Responder, AI Response, Audio Recording, AudioToText) now supports custom API endpoints. Point them at your own model host, a local LLM, or any OpenAI-compatible API. Full control, no lock-in.

💬 Platform Chat

The platform now has a full real-time messaging system:

• Direct messages & group conversations
• Live edits, reactions, typing indicators, reply threads
• Markdown rendering, @mentions, GIF picker (powered by Klipy)
• Presence status — online, away, DND
• Support tickets — open a thread directly with the team
• Message reports — flag content for moderators
• Role-based backoffice (admin / moderator / support)
• Email notifications for bans, ticket replies, and messages

🔨 Discord Moderation

A full moderation suite, controllable from the panel and from Discord slash commands:

• Ban, mute (native timeout), kick, warn, softban
• Automatic expiry for temporary sanctions
• Full sanction history per user
• DM notification sent to the target before the action
• Auto-mute after N warnings (configurable threshold)
• Log channel — every action posted as a Discord embed
• Unban appeals — banned members can submit a request via the panel
• /my-history slash command — members can view their own sanctions

🔍 SEO — 100/100

The homepage now scores 100/100 on Google SEO and loads in under 1 second on desktop. Proper meta tags, Open Graph cards (Discord/Twitter previews), structured data (JSON-LD), sitemap, robots.txt — all in place.

⚙️ Admin — SEO Settings

Admins can configure the homepage title, description, OG image, Google Analytics 4, Search Console & Bing verification, and aggregate ratings — all from a live settings page with Google snippet preview and Twitter card preview.

🔔 Announcements (you're reading one right now)

The bell icon in the navbar now rings — literally — when something new drops. Real-time delivery, markdown support, unread badge, and a sound notification when you're on the platform.

The Chat nav link also now shows a live unread message count badge.

👀 What's Coming

We're not ready to name names just yet, but Discord server owners are going to want to pay attention to the next update. Think about what happens after something goes wrong on your server — and how your community might want to reach your moderation team.

Beyond that, we have a feature in the pipeline that's been requested by pretty much every active server owner. It involves XP, levels, and keeping your community engaged. More soon.

Stay tuned. 🚀
