Choose Clocky when you want deliberate live sessions, breaks, projects, a reporting dashboard, long history windows, and a low-permission install.

“Not listed” is not the same as “does not exist.” It means we did not find a public claim for that feature in the official sources reviewed below.

The biggest difference is what the record is for

Clocky treats a check-in as the start of a structured session. Breaks can be separated from worked time, sessions can carry a project, and the resulting history feeds attendance and dashboard reporting. This suits teams that need to answer who worked, for how long, and on what.

Clock is closer to an operational clock-and-role utility. Its public page emphasizes an automatically assigned Working role, overtime reminders, achievements, payroll exports, branding, scheduled reports, and outbound webhooks. That is a strong package when Discord roles and downstream automations are central to the workflow.

Pricing is almost identical, but the bundles are not

Clock Premium is advertised at $5 per server per month. Clocky Premium is $4.99 per server per month for up to 100 rolling active users and 100 projects; Clocky Pro is $9.99 per month with no configured active-user or project cap. Clocky also offers annual billing and a $149.99 one-time Lifetime plan.

Clock advertises unlimited clock in/out on its free plan. Clocky Free is capped at five members who started a session in the preceding 30 days, but provides the core Duty Panel, live attendance, statistics, and one year of reporting-history access. Compare the included workflow, not the one-cent headline difference.

Privacy and permissions favor different operating models

Clocky deliberately avoids presence monitoring, message reading, screenshots, and role automation. Its standard install asks for View Channel, Send Messages, and Embed Links, plus application commands. A check-in exists because the member explicitly started it.

Clock also describes a minimal data model and says it does not store messages. Its automatic role assignment is useful, but Discord requires the bot role to sit above the roles it manages. If your policy minimizes permission scope, Clocky has the simpler footprint; if visible role state is essential, Clock provides it directly.

Bottom line

Clocky is the better fit for Discord teams that care about break-aware time records, project context, long reporting windows, and an intentionally small permissions surface. Clock is the better fit for communities that want role changes, payroll-style output, custom branding, achievements, or webhook automation.

Neither product is universally better. Run one real shift with the workflow your team will actually use, then inspect the report you need at the end. The product that makes both moments clear is the right choice.

We compare the public product, pricing, documentation, and app-directory pages available on the review date. We do not infer an absent feature unless the competitor explicitly says it is unavailable; “not listed” means exactly that.

Clocky vs Clock FAQ

Is Clocky cheaper than Clock?

Their entry paid prices are effectively the same: Clocky Premium is $4.99 per server per month and Clock Premium is $5 per server per month on the reviewed date. Clocky also has Pro, annual, and Lifetime options; the included features differ.

Which bot supports projects and breaks?

Clocky documents project tracking and break tracking on paid plans. Those capabilities were not listed on Clock’s reviewed public product and pricing page.

Which bot can assign an on-duty role?

Clock advertises automatic role assignment when a member clocks in. Clocky does not assign Discord roles as part of its standard workflow.

Does either product monitor Discord activity?

Clocky does not infer work from presence, voice, messages, or screen activity. Clock states that it stores clock timestamps, Discord IDs, and server configuration and does not store messages. Each server operator should still explain its own attendance policy.
