Moderation in Telegram

Moderate your Telegram community

Stop spam, screen new joiners and enforce your rules automatically, with a bot that watches the group so you do not have to.

The bot must be a group admin to moderate.

You can moderate a Telegram group with BotLaunch by turning on modules for anti-spam, a join captcha, anti-flood, banned words, warnings and bans. The bot applies your rules automatically as messages arrive, keeps a record, and lets your admins act from the chat. It needs to be an admin, or have privacy mode off, to see group messages.

What you get

Automatic anti-spam

Catch spammy messages and links by your rules, and act on them without an admin having to be online.

Screen new joiners

A captcha challenge on join filters out bots before they can post in your group.

Warnings, bans and word filters

Warn repeat offenders, ban on a threshold, and block a list of forbidden words. Everything is configurable per group.

A record of what happened

Moderation actions are logged so you can see what the bot did and why.

How it works

01

Add the bot as admin

Telegram only shows group messages to a bot that is an admin, or that has privacy mode off. That is what lets it moderate.

02

Turn on the modules you want

Anti-spam, captcha, anti-flood, banned words, warnings, bans, and more, each configured to your rules.

03

Let it run

The bot applies your rules as messages arrive. Your admins can still step in from the chat.

Questions about moderation

Does the bot need to be an admin?

Yes, to moderate it must be a group admin, or have Telegram privacy mode disabled, so it can see and act on messages. This is a Telegram rule, not a BotLaunch one.

Which moderation tools are included?

Anti-spam, a join captcha, anti-flood, banned words, warnings, ban management and more, across the moderation modules. You turn on the ones you need per group.

Does moderation use AI?

The moderation modules apply your configured rules, not a language model. AI features in BotLaunch are separate and run on your own OpenAI key.
