What I build for Telegram

Four common project shapes

Telegram covers a wider surface than most developers realise — bots, WebApps, Mini Apps with the new Mini App Center, channels with monetisation, Stars-based payments, TON wallet integration. Most projects fall into one of these four shapes.

Telegram Mini Apps & WebApps

Full applications running inside Telegram with a native-feel UI. E-commerce stores, mini-games, dashboards, content portals. Frontend in HTML/JS, backend in Python (Flask or FastAPI), data in SQLite or Postgres. Riverhold is a working example: full RPG with on-chain token payments, runs inside Telegram.

Community moderation bots

Anti-spam, anti-scam, anti-raid, role assignment, captcha gating, admin tools. Thorak (currently moderating a 5,000-member private community) is the live reference build. Customised to your group's rules, not a one-size-fits-all template.

Customer-service & sales bots

FAQ answering, order capture, lead qualification, appointment booking. Integrates with your existing CRM, calendar or e-commerce stack. The bot handles tier-1 questions so your team handles the ones that matter.

Automation & trading bots

Price alerts, on-chain monitoring, signal forwarding, treasury management, scheduled posts to channels. Custom logic over public APIs — Solana, Ethereum, CoinGecko, GeckoTerminal, Telegram's native APIs.

Stack

Boring, proven tools

Python 3.12, python-telegram-bot or aiogram for bots, Flask or FastAPI for backends, vanilla HTML/CSS/JS for WebApps (no React tax), SQLite for small projects, Postgres for scale. WeasyPrint or ReportLab for PDFs. Solana / TON web3 libraries when on-chain payments matter. Deployed on Hetzner, DigitalOcean, or your existing infra — your choice. No vendor lock-in.

Pricing

Quoted per project — typical ranges

Telegram work doesn't fit a fixed price list. A simple moderation bot might be £400 finished; a full WebApp with payments is £3,000-£12,000+. Quoted after a free 15-minute discovery call. Fixed price, not hourly — you know the bill upfront. Working in GBP, USD or EUR.
