we’re trying to make the discord client we’ve needed the whole time.

join us at discord.gg/poweruser, comes with cool guild tag!
We started this project at the end of 2020, following the community app aspirations of Hiven. We were terminally online, working in the Sneaker Reselling / Botting scene, and we understood our “workflows” on Discord were night and day compared to the typical Discord user. Millions of people still use Discord to hangout and play, but powerusers were (and still are) a very large subsection daily active users that are very underserved. We tinkered about with the project for around 8 months and have left the project inactive since June 2021.
Believe it or not, the screen in this tweet was also a mockup from forever ago. (Evident by Wrath & LexAIO logos as placeholders lol, RIP). This file has been sitting in Figma dormant but after the tweet received such great feedback it’s worth trying our hand to bring it to life.

Back in the day, we were hoping to create Scope as a paid subscription product to add on to peoples existing subscriptions to paid info servers (”cook groups”). However, if we are able to make Scope a reality, we are leaning towards free/foss/free+donations at the time of writing. We are very much in product infancy (ideas, designs and mockups), so you’re on this journey with us too. If you are interested in contributing, please join our Discord!
On this page I’ll include some other product screenshots from 2020, thought writings from around that time, and misc notes.
Improved Direct Messages
Pinned DM’s like iMessage, Folders of people & group chats, and more.
Multiple Columns View
Like Tweetdeck (now X Pro), but for Discord. Optimized for monitoring multiple channels (Read only option)
Channel Popout View
Isolate a single channel, so you can focus on whats important.
Horizontal / Vertical Split Views
Because sometimes you need to be in more than one place at a time.
