TGStat Alert Bot: Telegram Monitoring

Someone mentions your channel, reposts your post or writes about your brand, and you find out a week later. Or never. TGStat Alert Bot exists so that these events reach your private messages right away. 🔔

The bot runs on data from the Telegram channel analytics service TGStat. You subscribe to a channel or a word and receive alerts instead of monitoring everything by hand. Around 19 thousand people use it each month.

What it watches

• Reposts and mentions of a channel. You see who links to you and where.
• New posts for a keyword. Give it a word and the bot tells you when it appears in public channels and chats.

The first is useful for channel owners. The second suits people who follow a topic, a brand, a competitive market or their own name.

How to subscribe to what you need

Setup takes a couple of minutes. All main actions are bot commands.

1. Press /start and pick a language with /setlanguage. The bot understands Russian, English and Uzbek.
2. To follow a channel, use /new_channel.
3. For a keyword, use /new_word.
4. If something is unclear, open /help or /support.

You can create several subscriptions for different tasks. One bot then builds a whole feed of events around you. 🧭

Who really benefits

Admins who want to know where they are quoted. Social media managers tracking brand mentions. Marketers who need to spot a new wave of discussion in time. Journalists looking for fresh posts on a topic.

An ordinary reader has no use for it: the bot is made for work, not for fun.

Picking words so you do not drown in alerts

A word that is too broad gives you a stream of messages you stop reading. A word that is too narrow stays silent for weeks.

• Use exact phrasing. A brand name, a surname, a product name.
• Check the spelling. People write names differently, so add variants as separate subscriptions.
• Review your list. Once a month, delete subscriptions you no longer need.

Real-life use cases

The owner of a small cooking channel wants to know who shares his recipes. He subscribes to his own channel and gets a signal on every repost. He can thank the author right away or propose a mention swap.

A shop watches the name of its product: when someone posts a complaint in a chat, an employee replies the same day. A blogger subscribes to their own name and learns in time when people write about them. 📣

Paid or free

Access terms are set by the TGStat service and can change. Check current plans in the bot itself or on the service's page. If you do not want to pay, first test whether the free options are enough for you.

What the bot does not do

It does not write for you or run your channel. The bot only tells you where you are mentioned, and the decision stays with you: reply, thank someone for a repost, or catch negativity and react in time. ✅

Remember the limits of the search too: the bot sees public channels and chats, not private conversations. For the full picture, use it alongside other sources.
