Send scheduled Telegram reminders for multiple clients automatically

Each client's deadlines are checked every minute and reminders go out on Telegram automatically, with no duplicates.

How the work actually flows

It repeats. Repeats next scheduled check; runs once per per client.

The problem it solves

If you manage reminders for multiple clients or teams, keeping track of who needs to be notified and when becomes a spreadsheet nightmare. Manual reminders get sent late, sent twice, or forgotten entirely as your client list grows. Every client also wants their own message wording and channel, which is hard to manage by hand.

Who it fits

Agencies and service businesses that send deadline reminders to several separate clients or teams.

How it works

  1. An external system sends an event with a client's ID and details
  2. The system looks up that client's channel and message template
  3. A scheduled check runs every minute for approaching deadlines
  4. The right reminder is sent through Telegram, checked against past sends to avoid duplicates
  5. Every reminder sent is logged with its status
What you get

Deadlines your clients never say they missed

Each client gets the right reminder in Telegram before their deadline hits, without any duplicate messages going out.

What you get

A timely Telegram reminder for each client, sent once and logged, plus a record of every attempt made.

What you need

A PostgreSQL database and a Telegram bot account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
