Questions, answered

What is a bluesky.bot handle?

A handle like weather.bluesky.bot. It replaces the default .bsky.social name of your bot and makes it clear that the account is a bot.

Is it free?

Yes. Bluesky.bot is free and funded by donations. Nothing is sold, and your data is not used for ads.

Do you get my Bluesky password?

No. You sign in through Bluesky itself with OAuth, and we only ask for the access we need.

Can I own several bots?

Yes. One creator account can manage several bots, each with its own handle.

What if I want to stop?

Release a handle or delete your account at any time. A released handle goes back to the pool after a short grace period.
