The app works without a guild. Guild uploads are held during this beta.
Under the hood
Read-only, by design
How it works, and what it never does.
It comes from the same codebase as the capture app, whose code is public on GitHub under GPL-3.0.
It reads the game’s network traffic as it goes past. It never types, clicks, moves or changes anything in Albion, and it sends nothing to the game.
Sandbox Interactive’s technical lead said in 2017 that tools which only look and analyze are fine. This app only looks and analyzes. It never changes the game or plays for you, and it isn’t made or endorsed by Sandbox Interactive.
The same AO Loot Logger engine (GPL-3.0), extended to read combat and activity, as a separate program.
It keeps the zone’s name and nothing more. Your position on the map is never read, kept or sent.
Prices come from the Albion Online Data Project, item and spell pictures from Albion’s own image service, and your kills and deaths from Albion’s public killboard.

Questions
What players ask first
01 / 06
Is it allowed?
It only observes: it never types, clicks or changes anything in the game, it sends nothing to the game, and it draws no overlay. You are responsible for making sure that running it complies with the rules of Albion Online.
02 / 06
Does it log in to my account?
No. It never logs in to your account, never changes anything in the game and never sends anything to it.
03 / 06
Will it catch everything?
Not always. It sees what the game sends to your computer, so only nearby combat, and we don’t guarantee that every pickup is captured.
04 / 06
Does it show other players?
Nearby ones. The game broadcasts nearby pickups to your client, so the log also names pickups by players you were near.
05 / 06
Do I need a guild or the bot?
No. The app works without a guild, and your records are yours either way.
06 / 06
How is it different from the capture app?
Albion Butler Capture is the small, stable app for guild sync: it sends the energy log, the daily bonuses and a loot log to the bot. This is the full app for your own sessions, and the two install side by side.
Tonight’s haul, on the record.
Your loot and silver, recorded as you play and kept on your computer.
