The problem it solves

Checking the Epic Games store yourself for the next free title means remembering to look, and members of your community miss out if nobody happens to notice in time. You want the deal announced the moment it goes live.

Who it fits

A gaming community manager or Discord server admin who shares free game deals with members.

How it works

  1. Checks the Epic Games store page on a regular schedule
  2. Compares it against the last known list of free games
  3. Builds an announcement for any newly added titles
  4. Posts the announcement to your Discord server
What you get

Free game drops your members never miss

Your Discord server gets an automatic alert the moment Epic Games adds a new free title.

What you get

A Discord announcement listing any newly available free games.

What you need

A Discord server with a bot or webhook configured.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
