Telegram bots · Qualia Labs, Kent, UK
Telegram bots: a service your customers use without installing anything.
A bot lives inside an app people already have. It can send a morning briefing, take a subscription or answer a question, and nobody has to download a thing or wait for app store review.
01 / What we build
What that looks like.
aDaily digests and alerts
Scheduled messages built from live data and sent to each subscriber on time, every time.
bSubscriptions and payments
Paid tiers inside the chat, so the service can pay for itself.
cAnswers and lookups
Quick answers to the questions your customers ask most, from your own information.
dAdmin and analytics
See who is subscribed, what was sent and what people actually use.

03 / How it works
Fixed price, after one week.
Every build starts with a paid one-week scoping sprint. We take the idea apart and hand back a written spec and a fixed price, which is yours to keep whether or not you continue, and its cost comes off the build. Then clickable screens before any production code, the build in two-week blocks, launch, and a handover with everything in your name.
There are two of us, Sharan on software and product and Daniel on design and brand, and we do the work ourselves. How we work · Ways to work together
Most projects run between £25,000 and £75,000 depending on scope.
04 / Questions
Before you ask.
Why Telegram instead of an app?
Nothing to install and no app store review. Your customers open a chat they already have.
Can a bot take payments?
Yes. Bandwagon charged subscribers less than the price of a coffee, inside Telegram.
What does it cost?
Fixed, after the one-week scoping sprint. Most of our projects run between £25,000 and £75,000 depending on scope.
Who owns the bot?
You do. The bot, the code and the hosting accounts are in your name.
