☾ ✦ MONTHLY CREATOR HIGHLIGHTS ✦ ☾

〔 OCTOBER • 2026 〕

╭───── ☾ ✦ ☾ ─────╮

Another month, another handful of creators whose work caught my attention around JanitorAI.

Every month, I like to highlight some of the creators I've discovered, followed, or simply enjoyed seeing around JanitorAI. Whether it's their bots, writing, character choices, creative ideas, or overall style, these are the people who managed to stand out to me personally.

These aren't objective rankings of the "best" creators on the site, and they're definitely not meant to be a competition. It's just my personal selection for the month, featuring one Creator of the Month, two runner-ups, and a few honorable mentions worth checking out.

✦ ────── ☾ ◈ ☾ ────── ✦

☾ #1 — CREATOR OF THE MONTH ☾

GoonSpider

“An up-and-coming creator who earned my top spotlight this October.”

〔 WHY THEY STOOD OUT 〕

Taking my #1 spot this October is GoonSpider! One of the things that makes this pick particularly interesting to me is that they're still a relatively small, up-and-coming creator, sitting at around 200 followers when I put this list together.

Follower counts obviously aren't what determine these highlights, and GoonSpider is a pretty good example of that. Sometimes a creator doesn't need a massive following to catch my attention. I wanted to give this one the main spotlight this month, especially while they're still growing and more people might not have come across their work yet.

〔 FAVORITE BOT 〕

Astra Yao — Is There Someone Else?

My recommended bot from GoonSpider is their Astra Yao bot, "Is There Someone Else?" It's the particular character I'm choosing to highlight alongside their first-place feature this month.

My Recommendation:

If GoonSpider isn't a name you've come across yet, I'd suggest starting with the Astra Yao bot linked above. It's my pick for anyone interested in checking out their work, and I'd definitely encourage giving this smaller creator some attention while you're at it.

✦ #2 — RUNNER-UP ✦

UN-Night

UN-Night takes the runner-up spot this October, and I really do mean runner-up by the smallest of margins. They were barely behind my first-place pick this month.

This was an especially close decision, and I don't want the #2 placement to make it seem like UN-Night was somehow a distant second. They were absolutely in contention for the main spotlight, and their work deserves some attention regardless of where they ended up on this list.

✦ BOT PICK — Hehe, Didja Miss Me?

This is my recommended starting point for UN-Night. Considering just how close they came to taking the top spot, I'd definitely suggest checking out their profile and giving this bot a look.

✦ #3 — RUNNER-UP ✦

Taika Lukat

Rounding out my top three this month is Taika Lukat, a creator I'd particularly recommend to anyone who enjoys Wuthering Waves bots.

Their WuWa content is what earned them a place on my list this October. If you're someone who likes exploring bots based on characters from that game, Taika Lukat is definitely a creator worth having on your radar.

✦ BOT PICK — Rebound Ex — Lynae

This is my recommended bot to check out from Taika Lukat. If their Wuthering Waves creations sound like your kind of thing, I'd suggest starting here before exploring the rest of their profile.

☾ HONORABLE MENTIONS ☾

A couple more creators I think deserve some love this October.

✦ #4 — RedzosMineTurtle

An extremely underrated creator, in my opinion. RedzosMineTurtle makes some genuinely good Reverse: 1999 and Honkai: Star Rail bots, and I think their work deserves more attention than it gets.

My recommended bot is Evanescia — Dude, I Don't Want to Watch Your Stupid Anime. Definitely worth a look, especially if you're into either of those games.

✦ #5 — DukeOBrunswick

If you're an Azumanga Daioh fan, this is another creator I'd recommend checking out. DukeOBrunswick makes good bots based on the series, and honestly, I don't even have one specific favorite to recommend because I think their bots are good across the board.

One thing worth keeping in mind, though: a large majority of their bots are smut-oriented, so just be aware of that before browsing. If that doesn't bother you, their profile is worth exploring.

✦ A LITTLE NOTE ✦

As always, don't take the exact placements too seriously. These highlights are based entirely on my personal discoveries, preferences, and the creators whose work happened to catch my attention during October. They're not meant to be some definitive judgment of who's better than whom.

There are plenty of talented creators on JanitorAI that I haven't discovered yet, along with others whose work I simply haven't spent enough time looking through to include in one of these posts.

Whether someone landed in first place, barely missed it, rounded out the top three, or appeared as an honorable mention, everyone included here earned a shoutout because something about their work stood out to me.

And if there's one thing I especially want to encourage with these posts, it's giving smaller and underrated creators a chance. You never know when you'll stumble across someone whose bots end up becoming your next favorites.
