Setup

Connect Telegram Channels in 3 min

No engineers, no pipelines to maintain. Kimo asks for the minimum access it needs and tells you exactly what it will read.

  1. 1

    Create a read-only key in Telegram Channels

    Use a dedicated key scoped to read access, so it can be rotated independently.

  2. 2

    Paste it into Kimo

    Keys are encrypted with a per-workspace key and never shown again.

  3. 3

    Choose streams

    Pick which objects to sync, starting with messages.

  4. 4

    Validate and sync

    Kimo tests the key, backfills history and keeps it fresh (real time).

Read-only, encrypted, revocable. Credentials are encrypted with a per-workspace key, never logged, and can be rotated without breaking your models.
