A ManyChat alternative built only for Telegram

Multi-channel tools price and design for the channel you do not use. If your audience is in Telegram, that breadth is cost without benefit.

A ManyChat alternative built only for Telegram

BotLaunch is built specifically for Telegram: channels, groups and Telegram Mini Apps, and nothing else. That narrowness is the point. You get moderation, automation, broadcasts and AI replies per channel plus a storefront that opens inside the chat, configured from a web dashboard with no code. The free plan never limits members or messages.

Breadth you pay for and never open

A multi-channel platform has to keep every channel at parity, which means the interface asks you which one you mean before it lets you do anything, and the pricing is built around the total. If Telegram is where your people are, you are carrying the rest of it for nothing.

Everything in BotLaunch assumes Telegram. A bot is added to a channel as an admin, modules are toggled per channel, and the shop opens in the chat rather than in a browser tab. There is no channel picker because there is no second channel.

What you can actually build

165 module types, grouped by job: moderation (anti-spam, anti-flood, CAPTCHA, word and link filters, warnings, ban management, raid protection), user management (tags, VIP, verification, welcomes), engagement (polls, reputation, gamification), analytics, automation (scheduler, broadcasts, auto-responses, triggers, conversation flows), and AI replies. Vertical tools cover crypto, e-commerce, courses and real estate.

Each one is configured from the dashboard. Browse the list on Modules before you decide whether the trade is worth it.

The half that is usually a separate product

Selling normally means a second tool and a second bill. Here the Mini App storefront sits on the same bot: a block-based builder, a theme engine, and more than 100 ready-made designs. Customers browse and order without leaving the conversation. An AI shop builder can generate a whole storefront from one sentence if you would rather start from something than from nothing.

Prices

The channel side is $0, $15, $39 or $99 a month. The Mini App side is separate: $0, $19, $49 or $99. You can buy either ladder on its own. The full tables are on Pricing.

When the multi-channel tool is the right answer

If half your audience is somewhere else and you need one inbox across both, buy the tool that spans them. Narrow software is a bad trade when your problem is wide. It is a good trade when it is not, and most Telegram sellers we see never touch a second channel.

Frequently asked questions

Does BotLaunch work outside Telegram?

No. It is built for Telegram channels, groups and Mini Apps only, and is not a multi-channel tool.

Do I need to code anything?

No. Modules are toggled and configured from the web dashboard, and no bot creation or coding is required.

Can I use the interface in my language?

Yes, the platform interface is available in 12 languages.
