Telegram has 900M+ monthly users and the most developer-friendly bot platform of any messenger. Bots are first-class citizens — with rich formatting, inline keyboards, and group support built in.

How it works

Get a bot token from BotFather

Open @BotFather in Telegram, send /newbot, pick a name and username. BotFather gives you a token instantly.

Paste the token and choose a model

Enter the token in Clawship, pick your AI model (Claude, GPT-5, Gemini, or Ollama), and hit deploy.

DM your bot

Your Telegram bot is live. DM it or add it to a group — it responds with your chosen AI model in real-time.

What you can build

Community moderation

Add the bot to a Telegram group to answer FAQs, moderate discussions, and keep conversations on track.

Personal AI assistant

Deploy a private bot for yourself — use it as a writing assistant, research tool, or coding helper, all inside Telegram.

Content creation

Generate social media posts, email drafts, or blog outlines by chatting with your AI bot on the go.

Language practice

Set up a bot that responds only in your target language — practice conversation anytime, anywhere.

Switch models anytime — no redeployment, no downtime.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get a Telegram bot token?

Open Telegram, search for @BotFather, send /newbot, and follow the prompts. It takes about 30 seconds and gives you a token like 123456789:ABCdefGHI.

Can the bot work in group chats?

Yes. Add the bot to any group and @mention it to trigger a response. The bot will only respond when mentioned, so it won't spam the group.

Is there a limit on messages?

Clawship has no message cap. Telegram's Bot API allows about 30 messages per second, which is more than enough for most use cases.

Can I use inline mode?

Currently, Clawship bots respond to direct messages and group mentions. Inline mode support is planned for a future update.
