₍^. .^₎⟆ Orin [open beta]

Orin is a discord bot that detects and counts the number of cat pictures or GIFs your server members send.

It uses a local model called ViT-L/14 (OpenAI CLIP) that is pretty accurate at filtering out cats with minimal false positives. From a test on 4993 sets of cats and not-cats, it hit 7 false positives, and 96 false negatives.

You get per user statistics, leaderboards and pretty graphs with time controls:

Note: The model is heavily configured to avoid false positives, which tends to cause more false negatives. Orin normally reacts with 🐱 whenever it detects a positive. If there's a false negative, just react manually, and Orin will run that image again with lower confidence.

~ FAQ

Is this free?

For now, during the open beta, yes. We do not have the hardware to run enough models for this to be used en masse for free so it'll be a premium bot after launch. However, testers during this open beta will receive a key to have indefinite full access as thanks :)

Why does it require administrator?

It's just easier to roll out beta features without worrying about Discord's permission shenanigans. On official launch this will be finegrained.

Some of the WIP features we're testing that would require elevated permissions:

New features will never be enabled by default.

Are the images sent anywhere?

Nope, they are processed locally on small models (ViT-L/14)
This miiiiight result in downtime occasionally but we'll try our best to keep uptime over 99%

What's the response time?

This depends on the size of images, but generally expect it to process in about 2-3 seconds. GIFs will take a bit longer as we run 5 extracted frames.

Why only cats?

This is proof of concept!! If we get enough positive feedback we'll add more filters for other animals, memes, objects etc. Possibly even custom filters for specific usecases.

How do I add this?

If you're interested in helping us test Orin, add it to your server with this link and mess around with it. A -report command will be available with bug reporting details after 12 hours.
