# Group Services

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bf%5FKLb%5Fi2eY](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bf%5FKLb%5Fi2eY)

SmartBots Group services are used to control various functions within your group such as Automatic direct group invitations and Automatic notices.

All SmartBots services use the abilities of SL bots: group inviters, group chat translators, automatic notice delivery system etc. All bots are hosted on our servers, so you don't have to keep your PC turned on.
