Leave the paywall behind
MEE6 popularized leveling — and locked much of what teams actually need behind Premium. Lio keeps core modules free on up to 3 servers, then upgrades to a real Ops Suite (Helpdesk, analytics, automations) instead of nickel-and-diming XP.

Replace a multi-bot stack, not just leveling
Invite Lio, enable Leveling / Welcome / Moderation / Tickets, and keep your community running without a Premium paywall on day one. When support needs SLAs and claims, turn on Helpdesk — same dashboard, no second subscription maze.
MEE6 alternative FAQ
Can Lio replace MEE6 leveling?
Yes. Lio’s Economy module covers XP, ranks, leaderboards, level roles, and an optional shop — free on the Free plan for up to 3 servers.
Why switch if MEE6 is already installed?
Fewer bots, clearer pricing, and an upgrade path into Helpdesk and Ops instead of paying Premium mainly to unlock basics. Lio is built as a modular ops stack, not a leveling brand with extras bolted on.
Do I lose music?
Lio does not ship a music bot. If music is your only need, keep a dedicated music bot. For moderation, leveling, tickets, and support ops, Lio is the consolidation play.
What does Plus add after Free?
Helpdesk with SLAs and agent stats, Admin Center, analytics, backups, unlimited automations, and more server slots — the Ops Suite around your free core.
