The Where to look step sets the campaign's sources. You can pick several channels - signals from all of them land in one feed. Each card shows the price of a post, for example «Credits per post: 1, AI check included».

Clicking a card opens that channel's settings window. Done saves them, Cancel removes a channel you have just added. To remove a channel that is already selected, click the cross on its card.

ℹ️ Note: on a trial every channel is available, but one campaign can hold no more than 3. A counter such as «2 of 3 selected» shows above the cards. Paid plans have no limit on the number of channels.

Telegram

Where to look

• My chats only - groups and channels your connected Telegram account is a member of. To add a new group, join it in Telegram and refresh the list.
• All of Telegram - every public group Telegrin already reads itself, plus new ones we keep finding. Nothing to pick, and no account is required: an account is what lets you reply and watch your own chats. With no account connected, the window opens on this option.
• My chats + all of Telegram - your chats and all of Telegram in one campaign.

ℹ️ «All of Telegram» reads groups only: a post in a channel has no author you could reply to.

Monitoring rules

• Keywords only (default) - the AI analyses only messages that contain the campaign's words.
• Every message - the AI reads every message in your chats, even without the words. Each message read costs 1 credit, even when it is not a lead. Applies to your own chats only.

At the bottom of the window is Shortest message to analyse: shorter messages do not go to the check. Threads, Bluesky and Hacker News have this setting too.

What to watch on Telegram

For your own chats, choose:

• Chats - we look for people in groups. Such a message becomes a lead you can reply to.
• Channel posts - posts from channels your account follows. These are news on your topic, not leads: you cannot reply to them.
• Everything - leads from groups and news from channels together. The two source lists are separate.

In groups with topics you can tick only the topics you need, so you do not pay for the rest.

Chats we already read

The Pick from the chats we already read block is there whichever option you chose: search by name, grouping By topic, By city, By kind, By language, and a Select all or Clear all button for each group. The People ask here mark means people ask for services in that chat, not just talk about the topic.

• In «All of Telegram» and «My chats + all of Telegram» every chat is already ticked. Untick one you do not need, and it stops reaching the campaign.
• In «My chats only» a tick works the other way: it adds a chat from the catalogue to your list. This is free, and the chat starts working at once.

No account connected

«My chats only» and replying both need a connected account. Telegrin offers to connect one and brings you back to this same step - the campaign draft is saved.

Threads

You need a connected Threads account: the campaign searches and replies on its behalf. If you have several, pick one in the settings window. The source is the campaign's keywords.

⚠️ Important: without an account the wizard lets you move on, but the campaign cannot be launched. Connect Threads in advance: Settings → Accounts.

LinkedIn

Nothing to connect: the search covers all of LinkedIn by the campaign's words. On paid plans you can narrow it with Author industries and Author companies. These filters are applied during collection, so posts they drop cost nothing.

⚠️ Important: on LinkedIn, a word that finds nothing in a check costs 1 credit. Remove words that bring nothing for a long time.

Reddit

The main setting is Subreddits. Not sure where to look? Describe the topic in Topic to find subreddits for and press Find subreddits.

• An empty list means searching all of Reddit: more posts, and every collected post costs a credit. On a trial at least one subreddit is required.
• What to read on Reddit: Posts only or Posts and comments. Comments are read only under posts that matched, and cost the same as a post. Comments per post - 10 by default.

Jobs (vacancies)

A company hiring for your topic is a company with a job to do. The campaign's keywords are not sent here; the search is set in the channel window:

• Job titles - required, for example «Salesforce Administrator»;
• Countries and cities - optional: with no country we look wherever the boards have this role;
• Where the work happens - Remote, Hybrid, On-site;
• First search - the last 7, 14 or 30 days;
• Show vacancies from recruiting agencies - off by default;
• Narrow the search - optional filters by company industry and size, job family, seniority and employment type.

Vacancies are collected once a day, 1 credit per vacancy. There is no language filter. You apply or contact the company yourself.

X (Twitter), Bluesky, Hacker News

Nothing to connect: the search runs on the campaign's keywords. On X every collected post costs a credit; on Bluesky and Hacker News collecting is free. Here, as on LinkedIn and Reddit, the AI prepares the reply as a draft - you publish it yourself.

Where to start

Start with one or two channels: that makes it easier to see where good signals come from. You can add a channel at any time with Edit. The last channel cannot be removed - to stop searching, pause the campaign or archive it.

If a card is marked Upgrade needed or Not available yet, the reason is written under the channel grid.
