What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“I'm releasing Piecewise into the Early Access program to help focus on what is important to you. Whether it's working on new platforms, writing documentation, or improving the UI - this is an experience driven around Piecewise's users.”

Approximately how long will this software be in Early Access?

“I plan to keep Piecewise in Early Access for at least a year to make sure I have collected enough feedback on how it should be shaped, and so I have enough time to finish all of the features I plan to ship in the full version.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“In the full version of Piecewise, I plan to add support for more platforms, better coverage of all of the functionality that comes with each platform, extension blocks, loads of documentation, and feedback from users like you.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The editor itself is finished and you can create, run, and export fully-functional bots. Right now, I'm finishing up and polishing Discord support and starting work on Matrix and Mastodon support.”

Will this software be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“As a thank-you to Early Access participants, Piecewise is priced at a discount. Gradual price increases should be expected as more features are shipped.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“I'm enrolling Piecewise in the Early Access program because it is a very customer-focused project. I want to make the product you want to see, and will take feedback received via the Steam Community forums, Discord, and the Fediverse to heart.”

About This Software

Piecewise is a tool for assembling (literally!) Discord, Mastodon/Pleroma/Misskey, and Matrix chat bots (with more platforms planned in the future!) using a friendly puzzle-like format.


Skip confusing syntax and dive right into logic. Piecewise provides a friendly and familiar interface - even to beginners - based on a visual scripting framework.


Thanks to Piecewise's large coverage of the platform tools it uses, you'll have full control of a lot of the features you'd expect from a bot written from scratch.


Create bridges from one platform to another, or make your bot play nice with everyone: the possibilities are endless.


Write an interesting function? Share it with the world using the "Share Blocks" feature, or turn to the community to find functions to add to your bots.


Purchase extension packs or make your own to plug into services that provide rich data.


Ready for prime time? Easily export and run your bot anywhere; on your computer or on a remote server.


Looking for a rapid development tool for chat bots? Piecewise provides a simple interface - no more syntax errors, no finagling with your environment, no more mess. Build bots of any complexity, click the Play button, and you're online.
