Telegram bot: ideas from anywhere

Link your Telegram to the Sayweek bot: text, links, voice notes or captioned photos all land as ideas.

Updated:

Send Sayweek's Telegram bot anything on the go – a few lines, a link, a voice note or a photo with a caption – and it waits in Sayweek as an idea. The bot can also write the draft for you.

Before you start

The link is personal: each team member links their own Telegram to their own Sayweek account. The bot saves ideas for owners and editors; viewers and team voice contributors can't send ideas through it.

Connect

  1. Open Settings → All integrations.
  2. Click the Telegram card – its panel opens on the right (at the bottom on a phone).
  3. Click Connect. A one-time code appears (valid for 15 minutes).
  4. Click Open in Telegram.
  5. In Telegram, tap Start. The bot replies that your account is linked.

What you can send

  • Text or a link – it lands in the Ideas box.
  • A voice note of up to 5 minutes – Sayweek transcribes it and the transcript becomes the idea.
  • A photo with a caption – the caption becomes the idea; the photo isn't downloaded.
  • A meeting transcript as a file (.txt, .vtt, .srt, .docx) or as a longer text with several speakers – it becomes meeting ideas.
  • Commands: /draft – write the last idea for the best free slot, /week – the next 7 days, /help – help, /stop – unlink.

What Sayweek stores

Only the idea text (with names masked), the link and a voice note's transcript – never the audio or the photo. Nothing from unlinked chats is stored. Each chat can send up to 10 messages a minute and 60 an hour.

Disconnect

  1. Open Settings → All integrations.
  2. Click the Telegram card – its panel opens on the right (at the bottom on a phone).
  3. Click Disconnect.
  4. Confirm the question. The bot won't save your messages any more.
I want to use a different Telegram account. What do I do?

On the Telegram card, click Link another chat and link the new chat the same way. You can also unlink from Telegram with /stop.
