Telegram

The quickest way to start is the shared Power Horse bot — add it to your group and you're running. If you'd rather run under your own brand, you can bring your own bot: create a bot with Telegram's BotFather and connect its token in Settings → Connect → Telegram. Either way, your groups, moderation, XP, and analytics work the same.

Add the bot to your Telegram group and make it an admin — it needs admin rights to delete messages, restrict members, and post. Once it's added, the group is registered automatically and shows up in your dashboard under Community. You can also register a group manually by chat ID from the Telegram connect page if needed.

New members are muted the moment they join and sent a quick challenge (a CAPTCHA-style question) to prove they're human. When they answer correctly, the bot unmutes them and marks them verified. Accounts that never answer stay muted, which keeps spam bots from posting in your group.

The bot scores risky links and messages and can delete them and mute offenders, with the same risk-based approach used on Discord (see Moderation). New joins are risk-scored too, so suspicious accounts are flagged.

Members earn XP for taking part in the group, just like on Discord, and the bot can post a welcome message to greet new verified members.

Connected groups are snapshotted on a schedule, so you can track member counts and growth over time alongside your other platforms in Analytics.

You can also link Telegram to your Veyramesh account as a sign-in method and to receive bot notifications — manage it from Settings → Profile under your linked accounts.
