Do I need Telegram Premium?
No. Chat Automation works without it. If you don’t see it, update Telegram.
Does the bot read my personal chats?
Only the chats you opened to it when connecting. You can exclude personal chats in the same place. You can change the list in your Telegram profile: Edit → Chat Automation.
In which languages does it work?
The bot replies to your clients and talks to you in Russian, Uzbek or English.
How do I fill in the knowledge base?
Dictate or type: your price list, about you, address and schedule, booking rules, questions and answers, and topics not to answer. The secretary recognises speech and sends the finished text of each section for you to confirm. It does not add prices, addresses or hours that were not in your speech. If something needs fixing, you don’t have to dictate again: copy the text with one tap, fix it and send it back. The price list also works as a photo, PDF or Word file. Voice messages during setup do not use your plan’s minutes, and the recordings are not stored: only the confirmed text stays.
Will clients know a bot is replying?
Yes. In the first reply of the day the secretary says it is an automated assistant and that you answer difficult questions in person. You can change the wording in the settings, but you cannot remove it.
How does the secretary remind clients of a visit?
A day before the booking, the secretary sends the client the service, time and address with “I’ll be there”, “Reschedule” and “Cancel”, and two hours before it reminds again. You can change or turn off the second reminder in the settings. “Reschedule” and “Cancel” continue as a normal chat with confirmation. If the client last wrote to you more than a day ago, Telegram does not let the bot write first. For this, the booking confirmation has a “🔔 Remind me” button: the client starts the reminder bot once, and it reminds about visits a day and two hours before, with your name and the service, even without a recent chat. “I’ll be there” and “Cancel” work right there, and you get a message. If the client did not tap the button, you get a ready reminder text: send it yourself and tap “Reminded”. In the app calendar, each booking shows whether the reminder was sent and what the client answered. The booking confirmation comes with a file, so the client can add the visit to their calendar.
Does the secretary understand voice messages?
Yes: voice messages, video notes and audio in Russian, Uzbek and English. It answers in text, just like a normal message, and does not send voice replies. The plan includes 60 minutes of voice messages a month, and you can buy more as a pack. Voice messages you use to fill in the knowledge base do not use these minutes. The recordings are not stored, only the recognised text. If the minutes run out or the speech is unclear, the client gets a short reply, and you get “Your answer is needed”.
How does prepayment work?
If you have a Click account, enter its details and the deposit amount in the app settings. A client booked by the bot gets a payment link right away, and the time is held for them, 30 minutes by default. Payment confirms the booking automatically, and the money goes to your account. If the client does not pay in time, the hold is released; if they pay with the same link within a day and the time is still free, the booking comes back. For now prepayment works only with Click.
Can bookings wait for my confirmation?
Yes. Turn on confirmation for all bookings or for selected services: the time is held, and you get “Confirm” and “Decline” buttons.
How do I pay?
With Telegram Stars in the bot; the subscription renews automatically. If paying with Stars doesn’t work, write to /paysupport: we will send a link to pay by card in euros through Stripe and turn on your plan by hand. If you have a promo code, enter it in the bot: /plan → “Enter promo code”.
How do I turn it off?
Remove the bot in Chat Automation: it stops replying right away and deletes your data after 30 days. To delete at once: /delete_my_data.
