Telegram is the easiest way to keep your AI co-founder in your pocket. Briefings land in your DM with the bot (or a group you’ve added it to) and you can ask it anything in plain text — same brain as the dashboard, same memory, same persona. Unlike Slack, Telegram has no OAuth — pairing happens in 10 seconds with a one-time deep link.

​
Setup

  1. In the dashboard, open Co-founder → Integrations → Telegram and click Connect Telegram.
  2. You’ll get a t.me/<bot>?start=<code> link. Open it on your phone — Telegram launches and shows a Start button.
  3. Tap Start. The bot replies with ✅ Connected to <your email>. That’s it.
The link is single-use and expires in 30 minutes. You can re-pair (or pair from a different chat) any time by clicking Connect Telegram again. To pair a group instead of a DM: add the bot to the group first, then /start <code> from inside the group. The agent will use that group as the briefing destination.

​
Daily briefing

Once paired, your daily briefing is delivered to that chat as a Markdown message right after the run completes. Same content as Slack and email — headline, top highlights, prioritized actions. To stop briefings without disconnecting: turn off Telegram in Preferences → Enabled integrations. To unpair entirely: send /disconnect from the chat.

​
Conversational chat

Just send the bot a message. It picks up your most-recent live app’s context and answers using your latest briefing plus the full memory.
The agent has the same tool set in chat as in the briefing pipeline — keyword tracking, competitor lookups, ASO, ASC metrics, and semantic memory search so it can recall what you’ve tried even when the wording is different.

​
Approve actions with one tap

When the agent proposes a write action (metadata update, review reply, version create…), you get a per-action card in the chat with inline ✅ Approve / ❌ Reject buttons:
  • Tapping Approve executes the action immediately (same path as the dashboard’s Approve button) and replies with the result.
  • Buttons disappear after a decision — no double-approves from an old message.
  • Button presses are cryptographically signed, so a forged Telegram update can’t approve someone else’s action.
You can also approve/reject conversationally (“approve the subtitle change”) — the chat agent has the same action tools.

​
Slash commands

Examples:
/remember is the fastest way to teach the agent something on the go — you’ll typically use it the moment you make a decision (“OK, we’ve decided we won’t localize to JP”) so the agent stops re-proposing it.

​
Privacy & security

  • The bot only stores: your chat_id, the chat type (private/group), the username that paired it, and the time of pairing.
  • Webhook delivery is verified with a secret_token shared header — Telegram replays are deduped in-process by update_id.
  • Messages from other bots in a group are ignored.
  • The agent never echoes credentials or API keys, even if you paste them.
  • /disconnect instantly stops all delivery and disables tool execution from that chat. Re-pair any time.

​
API

Programmatic equivalents (for scripted setup):
  • POST /v1/cofounder/oauth/telegram/start — mints a fresh link code, returns the deep-link URL.
  • GET /v1/cofounder/integrations/telegram — current pairing status.
  • DELETE /v1/cofounder/integrations/telegram — unpair from the dashboard side.
