What Cole does on Telegram
A full AI workforce accessible from your favorite messaging app.
Native Telegram Integration
Cole runs inside Telegram, in private chats and group chats. Connect once from your Pocodot dashboard, then message Cole like you message anyone else. In a group, tag @Cole_chief_of_staff_bot or reply to one of its messages.
Full AI Chief of Staff
Not a keyword bot. Cole understands natural language, keeps notes on what you tell it, and handles complex multi-step tasks.
Built-in Skills
Behind one Telegram chat, Cole uses built-in skills for research, email, scheduling, reminders, drafting and phone calls.
Cross-Channel Memory
Link Telegram, WhatsApp and Slack to one Pocodot account and your private chats with Cole share notes and recent context. Each group keeps its own.
Group Chats
Add Cole to a Telegram group. Anyone with their own Pocodot account linked to Telegram can tag Cole for research, a draft, or a reminder that Cole posts in the group when it is due.
Your Apps, Connected
Connect your tools - Google Workspace, Outlook, Notion, Slack and more - and use them from Telegram.

Frequently asked questions
How do I connect Cole to Telegram?+
Sign up at pocodot.ai, open Integrations and choose Telegram. The dashboard gives you a one-time CONNECT code and a link to Cole's Telegram bot; send the code there and Cole replies in that chat.
Can Cole work in Telegram group chats?+
Yes. Add Cole to a Telegram group, then tag @Cole_chief_of_staff_bot or reply to one of its messages. Unless Cole is a group admin, Telegram passes it only those messages, so it cannot follow the rest of the conversation. If you make Cole an admin, Telegram sends it every message, but Cole answers only messages that tag it, reply to it or call it by name (for example "Cole, can you check this?"), not ones that only mention it in passing, and Cole does not keep the other messages. It can post reminders in the group. Everyone who asks needs their own Pocodot account linked to Telegram.
Is this just a ChatGPT wrapper on Telegram?+
No. Cole is a purpose-built AI coworker with built-in skills, memory shared across your private chats, and the ability to take real actions - send emails, put meetings on your calendar, update the CRM you connect, make calls. ChatGPT wrappers can only chat.
Does Cole remember previous Telegram conversations?+
Yes. Cole keeps notes on what you tell it, such as your preferences, ongoing projects and past instructions, and brings up the relevant ones in later conversations. Notes from your private chats are shared across the apps you link to your Pocodot account; in a group, Cole uses only the notes and messages from that group.
How much does the Telegram bot cost?+
Telegram access is included in all Pocodot plans. The free tier gives you 150 one-time credits to try it. Paid plans start at $19/month with the same Cole on every channel.
