Business Idea: Help People Create Telegram Bots

James Potter tweets…

I think everyone should have their own Telegram bot.

Mine is called Baldrick. He tells me:

– MRR/ARR and other stats across all of my apps (max once per day, I try to never check them otherwise)

– If error rates for a worker task went above 50%

– Refunds issued by my customer support person

– Weekly app usage metrics

Baldrick runs on a basic Python script with a scheduler that calls Telegram’s API

Someone replied to James…

Mine sends me the weather every morning and tells me what I should wear based on that. It’s been delivering every day successfully for 5 years now.

I’m thinking somebody could turn this kind of thing into a freelance service

Set up custom Telegram bots for companies or individuals. 

Or perhaps you could build a platform that makes it easy for people to create their own Telegram bots.

Apparently Telegram has almost 1 billion monthly active users so plenty of people could use something like this.
