# NoCap Bots

> NoCap Bots builds Discord add-ons for gaming guilds. Start with Voice Relay: one caller's voice in every party channel at once, for raids, sieges and PvP.

NoCap Bots is a family of hosted add-ons for Discord, made for gaming guilds. Everyone signs in with Discord and manages every server's add-ons from one dashboard; each add-on has its own plans, per Discord server, with a 7-day free trial. Every guide below is plain Markdown.

## Add-ons

- [Voice Relay](https://www.nocapbots.com/voice-relay) (beta): Your shot caller talks in one channel and every party hears them, at the same moment, without leaving their own channel. Built for raids, sieges and large-scale PvP. Docs: https://www.nocapbots.com/docs/voice-relay
- [Attendance](https://www.nocapbots.com/attendance) (beta, free while in beta): Attendance notes who was in your voice channels during a fight and for how long, then saves a list you can export for payouts, regears and loot. It runs on its own or alongside Voice Relay. Docs: https://www.nocapbots.com/docs/attendance

## Voice Relay: Get started

- [Set up Voice Relay from an empty Discord server](https://www.nocapbots.com/docs/voice-relay/getting-started.md): Set up a Discord voice relay in about ten minutes: make the channels and a caller role, invite the bot, pick roles and speaker channels, then type /start.
- [How Voice Relay carries Discord voice](https://www.nocapbots.com/docs/voice-relay/how-it-works.md): Why Discord voice needs bots to reach several channels, how the speaker bots relay audio with no transcoding, and what latency to expect.

## Voice Relay: Configure

- [Configure roles, channels and voice priority](https://www.nocapbots.com/docs/voice-relay/configuration.md): The Voice Relay configuration page explained: starter role, shot caller channel, primary and backup caller roles, and the four things /start needs.
- [Speaker bots: one bot per party channel](https://www.nocapbots.com/docs/voice-relay/speaker-bots.md): How the Callout speaker bots work: one slot per channel on your plan, an invite button each, picking channels, private channels and stage channels.
- [Talk back: let party leaders reach the caller](https://www.nocapbots.com/docs/voice-relay/talk-back.md): Set up Discord Priority Speaker so party leaders can talk to the caller with a priority push-to-talk key while their normal key stays in their squad.
- [Voice teams: run several callers at once](https://www.nocapbots.com/docs/voice-relay/voice-teams.md): Use Voice Relay's voice teams to run attack and defense callers at the same time, each heard only by their own speaker channels.
- [Alliances: relay across two Discord servers](https://www.nocapbots.com/docs/voice-relay/alliances.md): Link two Discord servers with a single-use invite code so one caller reaches the speaker channels of both. The allied server gets Guild Master free.

## Voice Relay: Reference

- [Voice Relay slash commands](https://www.nocapbots.com/docs/voice-relay/commands.md): Every Callout slash command: /start, /stop, /status, /ping, /start-cross-server and /stop-cross-server, and who can use them.
- [Troubleshooting Voice Relay](https://www.nocapbots.com/docs/voice-relay/troubleshooting.md): Fix common Voice Relay problems: /start won't run, nobody hears the caller, a bot can't access a channel, a full channel, an offline bot or a dead priority key.

## Attendance (beta): Get started

- [Take attendance of a guild fight in Discord voice](https://www.nocapbots.com/docs/attendance/track-a-fight.md): Track who was in your Discord voice channels during a fight: start by hand or with Voice Relay, stop to save it, then export the list as a CSV.

## Attendance (beta): Reference

- [How Attendance counts who was at a fight](https://www.nocapbots.com/docs/attendance/counting-rules.md): How Attendance decides who counts: share of the fight, short drops, party moves, deafened time, roles, channels and what is stored.

## Access and billing
