How it works
From idea to channel post
1
Make your bot an administrator
Create a bot with @BotFather, enter its token in the dashboard and add it as a channel administrator with “Post Messages” permission. To edit posts not published by your bot, also grant “Edit Messages”.
2
Write a post
Choose a regular post or article. Bold, italics, spoilers, quotes, links, emojis, buttons and link previews are available in the toolbar, without manual markup. Click “Send to me” to check the post in Telegram before publishing.
3
Choose when and where
Publish now, on a specific date and time, or repeatedly—daily or on selected weekdays, with a start and end date. Choose your main channel plus other channels and groups where the bot is an administrator.
What’s included
Publishing tools in one place
Recurring posts
Publish daily or on selected weekdays at the same time, with a start and end date.
Cross-posting
One post goes to several channels and groups where your bot is an administrator. If it fails in one destination, you receive an alert.
Telegram articles
Headings, lists, tables, quotes, collapsible sections, images and videos within the text, plus buttons. Publish an article through the bot without Telegram Premium.
Timed pinning and auto-deletion
Pin a post indefinitely or temporarily, for example during an offer. Delete after N hours or publish without sound.
Edit published posts
Edit text, media and buttons after publishing. Posts published manually in Telegram also open in the editor with their formatting.
Dashboard screenshots
What it looks like
All channel posts on one page, a full-screen editor and scheduling on the right. These screenshots use a demonstration coffee shop channel.
Two formats
Regular post or article
Both formats use the same editor and scheduling process.
| Regular post | Article | |
|---|---|---|
| Best for | News, announcements and short thoughts | Guides, price lists, explanations and collections |
| Length | Text up to 4096 characters; photo or video captions up to 1024 | Long text with headings and blocks |
| Formatting | Bold, italics, spoilers, code, quotes, links and emojis | All of these, plus headings, lists, tables and collapsible sections |
| Media | Photo, video or file attached to the post | Images and videos within the text |
| Buttons below the post | ||
| Telegram Premium required | No | No—the bot publishes the article |
Before and after
What changes in channel management
Manual publishing
- Someone has to publish at exactly the right time, even on weekends.
- The same post is copied into every channel and group.
- Pinned posts have to be unpinned manually when an offer ends.
- Tables and long instructions have to be put on a website.
With auto-posting
- The post publishes automatically at your chosen time or on a recurring schedule.
- One post reaches every selected channel and group.
- Posts are unpinned or deleted on a timer.
- Articles with tables and lists appear right in the channel.
The limits
What the bot can’t do
- It can’t see views or reach, because Telegram doesn’t share them with bots. View these in Telegram itself.
- It doesn’t inflate subscribers or views, read other people’s channels or log in as you. Your administrator bot performs every action.
- Telegram only lets the bot delete a post during the first 48 hours, whether the bot or a person published it. After that, delete it in Telegram itself.
- Publishing is available on Plus and Premium, not free Starter. AI in the editor is Premium only.

FAQs
Telegram publishing FAQs
How do I schedule a Telegram channel post?
Add your bot as a channel administrator, write a post under “Posts” and choose “Later” to set its date and time. It publishes automatically. Telegram itself supports scheduled messages; the bot adds recurring series, cross-posting, timed pinning and auto-deletion.
Can I publish to several channels at once?
Yes. Under “Where”, add other channels and groups where this bot is an administrator alongside your main channel. If publishing fails anywhere, you receive an alert.
Do articles require Telegram Premium?
No. Telegram’s own article editor requires Telegram Premium, but articles sent through a bot don’t. Use headings, lists, tables, quotes, collapsible sections, images and buttons.
Can I edit a published post?
Yes. Change text, media and buttons, or pin and delete it. Posts published manually in Telegram also open in the editor if your bot has “Edit Messages” permission. Telegram only lets the bot delete posts during the first 48 hours, regardless of who published them.
Can I see post views and reach?
No. Telegram doesn’t share channel views or reach with bots. Check these metrics in Telegram itself.
What does auto-posting cost?
Publishing is on Plus (19,99 €/month per bot) and Premium (34,99 €), not free Starter. AI in the post editor is Premium only. See pricing for details.
