Full definition
A Telegram bot is a special type of Telegram account managed by software instead of a human. Created via @BotFather (Telegram's official bot for creating bots), each bot has a unique token used to send and receive messages programmatically. Telegram bots are popular in Türkiye, MENA, Russia, and Eastern Europe — regions where Telegram has heavy adoption. Bots can handle DMs, post in groups, send media, support inline keyboards and rich content.
