Telegram

Index and search public Telegram channels — with your own Telegram account, not a shared bot.

Telegram is on paid plans and draws on the Recall & Telegram searches allowance.

#Connecting your account

The tool signs in as you. It asks for:

Your phone number
The login code Telegram sends to it
Your Telegram cloud password, only if your account has two-factor enabled

That authorised session is what performs the searches. We do not supply an account: without connecting one, this tool cannot search anything.

#What we store, and for how long

Your session is stored encrypted at rest, along with a masked phone number and the connection status. It is used only to run the searches you ask for.

Disconnecting revokes it. Press disconnect in the Telegram panel and the session is invalidated with Telegram and deleted from our side immediately. What you have already indexed stays yours.

If Telegram ends the session on its side — which it does periodically, and whenever you revoke it from your own device's active-sessions list — the panel says so and asks you to sign in again. Nothing you have indexed is lost.

#What it does

Index a channel. Point it at a public channel and it collects the history into your own workspace, where it can be searched offline afterwards.

Search inside a channel. Keyword, message type and author, in one native query — Telegram's own search, not a scrape of the web view. Searching what you have already stored costs nothing.

Discover channels. Find public channels by keyword.

Indexed messages become part of your collection: they are searchable by meaning through Recall, they feed profiles, and they come out in an export.

#The limits worth knowing

Public channels only. Nothing here reads private groups, direct messages or anything your account cannot already see.
Indexing is the expensive call in this product — a Telegram round trip plus an embedding per message. Reading your working set and searching stored messages are free; indexing, live search and discovery are the metered operations.
You are responsible for what you collect. See Your data.
