A Telegram chat window: a customer asks the StarlixAI bot for the status of order #4821, and the bot answers that it shipped yesterday and is out for delivery today, linking to the shop's shipping and delivery help page as its source.

Message

Goes well beyond slash commands

It reads from your sources, keeps up with the conversation, and can operate the Telegram Bot API for you.

Responds using what you feed it

Describe its personality and instructions in everyday language, then link your docs, help center, or FAQ. It draws its answers from those sources rather than making things up.

Private chats, groups, and supergroups

For one-on-one messages, Telegram keeps a single running thread per contact. Once added to a group, the bot replies whenever it's mentioned or someone replies to it.

Keeps track of the thread

It reviews the recent message history before responding, so a follow-up question like “and what about returns?” gets handled properly instead of being treated as a fresh start.

Understands images, not just words

Someone sends a screenshot of an error, a receipt, or a chart. The Agent reads what's in the image and bases its answer on that.

Interacts with the Telegram Bot API

Convert Bot API methods into AI Actions — posting and pinning announcements, muting or banning members, looking up chat details. Sensitive calls only execute for admins Telegram has verified, checked on our end before anything is sent.

Fluent in whatever language shows up

Telegram groups rarely stick to one language. It picks up the language of each incoming message and answers in kind, with zero configuration needed.

One bot, however you need to use it

A support rep, a group's memory bank, a plain-language admin assistant, or an internal helpdesk — pick the job.

Customer support

Meet customers on the app they already use

For many customers around the globe, Telegram is their first choice for reaching support. Your Agent takes care of order, shipping, and billing questions in private chats, with every message logged in your Inbox.

my order hasn't arrived and it's been six days

It cleared customs this morning and is out for delivery today. Here's the tracking link.

Communities & groups

For the members who never check the pinned post

The same handful of questions come up from every new member. The Agent draws on your group rules, FAQ, and pinned messages to answer them automatically, freeing your moderators from repeating themselves.

how do I get the contributor role?

Open a PR, then post it in the showcase topic. A mod adds the role within a day — it's in the pinned rules.

Moderation & admin

Give moderation commands in ordinary language

An admin replies to someone's message with “mute them for an hour.” The Agent triggers the Bot API call itself, identifying the target from the reply thread — never from text the model generated.

mute them for an hour

Done. @sam is muted until 15:40. You're the only one who can do that here.

Internal helpdesk

A helpdesk that lives inside a work chat

Feed it your handbook, runbooks, and internal policies, then add it to the team's group. IT and HR questions get resolved instantly, no support ticket required.

how many holiday days do I have left?

12 days. Anything not booked by 31 December doesn't carry over — the policy page has the details.

Getting started

Three quick steps — no bot token, nothing to code, nothing to host.

1

Set up your AI Agent

Name it, shape its tone, and describe what it should do in everyday language. Feed it your documentation, help center, or FAQ so answers come straight from your own material.

2

Drop the bot into your group

From the Telegram tile inside StarlixAI, choose Add to a Telegram group, select the group, and the shared StarlixAI bot joins on its own. No token or code snippet to juggle.

3

Approve it and you're live

The new group shows up under Waiting for your confirmation. Hit Confirm, tag the bot inside the group, and it starts replying. The whole thing takes roughly 5 minutes.

This isn't a typical Telegram bot

Most Telegram bots either follow fixed commands or wing it with generic training data. This one is shaped around your knowledge, your tools, and your group's own rules.

Sourced answers, not improvisation

Basic command bots just fire back canned replies, and generic AI bots make things up from their training data. Yours draws only on the instructions and sources you provide, and the Inbox shows exactly which source backs each answer.

It can take action in the group

Any Bot API method can be turned into an AI Action — announcing, pinning, muting, banning, pulling up chat info. The sensitive ones are gated by a Telegram-verified admin check enforced on the server, not just a prompt instruction.

One Agent, every channel you use

The exact same Agent running on Telegram also covers your website, WhatsApp, Slack, Discord, and Intercom — a single set of instructions, one knowledge base, one shared Inbox.
