Extract posts and stats from any public Telegram channel โ€” no API key, no login, no phone number. Just channel names in, structured data out.

What does it extract?

Per post: text (plain + HTML), post ID and URL, publish date, view count, photos, video/document flags, polls, link previews, forwarded-from source.

Per channel (optional): title, description, subscriber count, photo/video/link counts, avatar URL.

Why this scraper?

  • ๐Ÿ”‘ Zero setup โ€” no Telegram API credentials, no bot token, no login. Works instantly.
  • ๐Ÿ’ฐ $0.50 per 1,000 posts โ€” pay only for what you get.
  • ๐Ÿงพ Complete post metadata โ€” views, media, forwards, polls, service messages.
  • ๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ Graceful edge handling โ€” private, age-restricted, or nonexistent channels are reported, not crashed on.
