Let customers request AI-generated images through a Telegram bot

A Telegram bot generates custom AI images for your customers, logs each request, and enforces a daily limit automatically.

How the work actually flows

It branches. Exactly one path is taken.

The problem it solves

You want to offer quick custom graphics but don't have time to design each one by hand. Fielding image requests one at a time eats into your day, and it's hard to keep track of who's asked for what.

Who it fits

A marketing or social media team that fields frequent requests for quick custom graphics.

How it works

  1. A customer sends an image request in Telegram
  2. The system checks their daily usage against a preset limit
  3. AI improves the wording of the request for better results
  4. An image is generated and a caption written for it
  5. The finished image is sent back in Telegram and logged in Google Sheets
What you get

Custom images delivered without a designer on call

You let customers request custom AI-generated images right in chat, with usage limits and captions handled automatically.

What you get

A ready-to-use AI image delivered instantly in the chat, plus a running usage log in Google Sheets.

What you need

A Telegram bot, an AI image generation account, and a Google account for the sheet.

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.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
