Localization
AutoMuteUs now uses CrowdIn for Localization and translations (thanks @MatadorProBr)!
Help us translate the bot here:
To prepare any new strings for translation, first install goi18n v2.1.1 using the following command:
go install -v github.com/nicksnyder/go-i18n/v2/[email protected]Then run the following command anytime new strings or translations are added:
goi18n extract -outdir localesSelf-Hosting
Self-hosting requires robust knowledge and troubleshooting capability for Docker/Docker-compose, unRAID, Heroku, and/or any other networking and routing config specific to your hosting solution.
As such, we recommend that the majority of users take advantage of our Verified bot. The link to invite our bot can be found here:
If you are certain that you would prefer to self-host the bot, please follow any of the instructions on automuteus/deploy.
Developing
Please refer to the instructions on automuteus/deploy.

| REDIS_PASS | no | Password to authenticate with Redis, if applicable. |
Similar Projects
- Imposter: Similar bot that uses private Discord channels instead of mute/deafen. Also uses a dummy player joining the game and "spectating" to get game information; no capture needed (although loses the 10th player slot).
- AmongUsBot: Without their original Python program
- amongcord: A great program for tracking player status and auto mute/unmute in Among Us.
- Silence Among Us: Another bot quite similar to this one, which also uses AmongUsCapture. Now in early-access with a publicly-hosted instance!
