BOTS: FORGET APPS, NOW THE BOTS TAKE OVER

Bots send us a message when we need to know or respond to something, but stay invisible otherwise

Your personal bot will supervise other bots on your behalf, per your personal preferences. You may choose to delegate authority to bots that act autonomously on your behalf

Bots are simply Telegram accounts operated by software and AI features. They can teach, play, search, broadcast, remind, connect, integrate with other services, or even pass commands to the Internet of Things.

Bots are the new app
