Your Rust server, run from any browser.
Console, players, bans and automation in one panel that stays connected around the clock. Your staff get their own logins, and the RCON password stays with you.
Free while we're in beta. Runs next to the tools you already use, so you can try it without switching anything.

Why connect your server.
Not a feature list. This is what actually changes once your server is on GameSentry.
- 01
The RCON password stays with you
Staff work through their own Steam login. The password is encrypted the moment you save it and nobody sees it again, not even you.
AES-256-GCM · never sent back to the browserHow we protect your server - 02
The console never sleeps
We hold the connection day and night and keep the log, so the last few hours are already there when you open the panel. After a restart it reconnects on its own.
Persistent WebRCON · reconnects by itself - 03
Every player has a memory
Names, sessions, reports, notes, bans and VPN checks build up into one profile per player, across all of your servers.
One profile per player, every server - 04
Players can find you
Your servers get public pages with live player counts and history in our server browser, and your community gets its own page. Verified owners get a badge.
2,316,597 players on 2,236,264 servers we track, right now - 05
Made for how Rust actually runs
Wipe schedules, F7 reports, Oxide groups and plugins, and VAC bans are part of the product, not bolted on later.
Wipes · F7 reports · Oxide · VAC - 06
Stronger together
Follow the ban lists of communities you trust and share yours, so a cheater banned next door does not start fresh on your server.
Shared ban lists between communities - 07
Works on your phone
The whole panel works in a phone browser, so you can check a report or ban a cheater from wherever you are. No app to install.
Any modern browser · no app - 08
No plugin, no contract
Nothing to install on the server and nothing to sign. Connect it, try it, and remove it whenever you like.
Free in beta · remove any time

“I've been around Rust since legacy and spent years on the staff of community servers, always with a pile of scripts that never worked together. GameSentry is the tool I wanted back then.”
You start on the Free plan straight away: one server, three staff and three rules. Want more servers or tools like VPN detection and the live map? Ask for Beta Tester access, also free.
Every other game we track already has public server pages. Server management comes one game at a time.
Questions owners ask us.
Do I need to install anything on my server?
No. GameSentry talks to your server over RCON, which Rust already has. No plugin, no mod, nothing on the box.
What do I need to connect my server?
Your server's address, the RCON port and the RCON password. On Rust the RCON port is usually the game port plus one, so 28015 becomes 28016. If you'd rather not use RCON to prove it's yours, you can paste a code into your server description instead.
It says it can't connect. What should I check?
Most of the time it's the game port typed instead of the RCON port, or a password that doesn't match your server config. Also check that the RCON port is open for TCP in your firewall, and that RCON is turned on in your host's panel if they have that option.
What happens when my server restarts or goes offline?
Nothing you need to do. GameSentry reconnects on its own once the server is back, usually within a minute, and the log picks up where it left off.
Can my staff use it without knowing the RCON password?
Yes. Each moderator signs in with their own Steam account and works through GameSentry. You choose their role and which servers they can manage, and the password is never shown to anyone after you save it.
How much does it cost?
Nothing during the beta. New organizations start on the Free plan with one server, three staff and three automation rules. If you need more, request Beta Tester access from your organization or on Discord. It's free too, reviewed by hand and lasts six months.
Which games can I manage?
Rust has the full toolset today. Other games are in the server browser with live stats, and management is being added game by game.
Is this a web RCON client?
Yes, and it stays connected. GameSentry keeps the RCON connection open on our side and keeps the log, so there's no desktop client to leave running.
Can I keep using my current RCON tool?
Yes. Rust lets several tools connect over RCON at the same time, so GameSentry can run next to what you use today while you try it.
Can I remove my server later?
Yes, any time, from the server list in your organization.
