Matching businesses and clients in real time
Your clients from Telegram chats, on autopilot
Intentscanner runs AI monitoring of demand signals in Telegram chats. Every hour, in relocation chats, business communities and special-interest groups, someone is looking for a specialist: a lawyer, a tradesperson, an insurance broker. That request reaches you the moment it is posted.
from 42 €/mo on annual billing
“Looking for a two-bed flat in Valencia as an investment, budget up to 250,000 €. Who works with non-residents?”
“Need insurance for a residence permit for a family of three – what about price and timing?”
“Can anyone recommend a manicurist in the centre, need one urgently”
“Looking for someone to set up a CRM for a small clinic, budget is there”
These are examples of demand signals.
Intentscanner forwards messages like these the moment they are posted. You see them before your competitors and reply first.
What's happening right now
People in Telegram chats want your service
“Can anyone recommend an immigration lawyer in Spain?”
The client goes to whoever replies first, not to whoever is better
Someone asks the group and messages whoever answers.
Thousands of new messages a day, under 1% of them are demand signals. Intentscanner finds them and forwards them to you the moment they are posted.
Mechanics
How a signal reaches you
1
We connect a Telegram account – yours or a separate work account
The scanner reads the same chats you do – it simply misses nothing and works around the clock.
2
AI tells a request from a conversation
A cascading filter: keywords, pre-filter, AI intent analysis with a matching threshold above 80%.
3
A sound alert the moment it is posted
A person writes in a chat – a second later you have the alert: chat name, time, signal. We store nothing: delivered means deleted.
For startups
First clients for a startup – with no ad budget
If your startup is at the demand-validation stage or its first sales, Intentscanner will pass you the signals from your first clients.

Prices exclude VAT. It is added at checkout at your country's rate. EU companies with a valid VAT number are not charged it.
What counts as a niche. A separate configured topic: its own dictionary, its own markers, its own matching threshold. Real estate and insurance are two niches, while “renting” and “buying” inside real estate are one.
What's inside
What's here now and what arrives before 2027
Working now
- The signal the moment it is postedWe forward every signal as a separate message right after it is posted, rather than as a digest once a day.
- Into your own groupSignals arrive in your private Telegram group – everyone you add there sees them.
- Comments under postsThe scanner also reads the public discussion chats under channel posts – the ones your account is in.
- Five message languagesWe find signals in messages in Spanish, English, Russian, German and French.
- Control botYou change the matching threshold yourself: higher means stricter selection and fewer signals, lower means more of them, and more irrelevant ones with them. The same bot holds the chat blocklist and the pause button.
- You install nothingThe scanner runs on our server and only reads. From you: a work Telegram account that is already in the chats you need.
- Manual setup for your nicheThe founder configures the dictionaries, markers and matching threshold.
- Tuning on your feedbackWe adjust dictionaries, markers and the matching threshold for the whole subscription period. Tell us irrelevant signals are coming through and we will make the selection stricter.
- Chat maintenanceWe watch the chats, flag the ones that have gone quiet and suggest new ones in your niche. You join them yourself, from your own account.
- Development for your tasksTell us what is missing in your day-to-day work. Suitable improvements go into the product.
- New features at no extra costA feature built at one client's request appears for everyone. Your chats, dictionaries and settings stay yours alone.
Arriving before 1 January 2027
- Self-learning filtersThe scanner adds stop words on its own and takes spam chats off monitoring. It takes no action from your account while doing so – the chat simply stops being read.
- Material for your channelWe gather news from your market from Telegram channels. What to publish and how is your call.
- Daily reportHow many messages were read, how many signals forwarded, how many words added to the dictionaries.
Niche checkSignal volume depends on the niche and the number of active chats, so before you pay we show example signals from your market and match you to a plan.
Cancel at any timeYou cancel the subscription and that is it: no renewals, no calls, no reasons to explain.
The price stays the sameWithin a paid period the price is the same. Prices will rise; that reaches you only at renewal.
Privacy and legality
Where Telegram is allowed, Intentscanner is allowed
The scanner does exactly what any chat member does: it reads open messages.
- Public messages onlyThe scanner reads the public chats you are in. It has no access to private conversations.
- Read-only modeThe scanner is technically unable to write, post or send anything on your behalf.
- Sensitive topicsThe filter discards requests about health, religion and politics: we leave those topics unprocessed.
- Signals are not storedDelivered means deleted. The service marker that keeps a signal from being sent twice is erased after 15 minutes.
- EU servers, or your ownServers in the Netherlands, processing under GDPR rules. Need a server in your own country – we will deploy one.
- Minimal dataA signal carries only the text of the request and a link to it. We do not pass on the author's name or contact details.
- Roles in the contractUnder GDPR someone else's text is data too, so the contract states it: you are the controller, we are the processor.
- The account runs as usualTelegram's limits are aimed at mass messaging. The scanner reads the chats you are already in; none of our clients has been blocked.
- You revoke accessThe scanner's session sits in your Telegram settings, in the device list. You can close it yourself, without contacting us.
The legal basis, the list of providers and people's rights are in the privacy policy.
Common questions
What people ask before connecting
What is Intentscanner?
Intentscanner is a service for AI monitoring of demand signals in Telegram chats. Intentscanner finds messages in open chats from people with an intent to buy a service and forwards them to businesses the moment they are posted. You see the request “looking for a real estate agent in Valencia” seconds after it is written, and you answer first.
What is a demand signal, and how is it different from a lead?
A demand signal is a message from a person who is looking for a service right now: “recommend an immigration lawyer”, “who does insurance for a visa?”. Unlike a “lead”, this is not a contact card from an ad form and not a record from a purchased database: we do not collect or sell personal data. We deliver you a public request the moment it appears – and from there you answer the person directly, in the same chat where they asked. Most often several other experts will be answering the person at the same time as you, so the potential client will most likely carry on the conversation with whoever gives a good answer first. The opposite happens too: a person is looking for a very rare service – then you may turn out to be the only provider, and a “match” happens.
Is this spam?
No – it is an answer to a request. People write “recommend someone” in a chat so that they get an answer: your answer is the whole point of their message. In many communities the administrators themselves add company representatives, because quick answers from providers make the chat more useful. Intentscanner does not publish anything and does not send anything out – it only shows you where people are looking for you. If you used to go through chats by hand, now Intentscanner finds you communities that need your advice, your service or a word said at the right moment on your topic.
How fast do signals arrive?
The moment they are posted: processing takes fractions of a second. A person has written in a chat – the signal is already with you. That speed is what the service is built on: the client goes to whoever answers first.
Is this legal?
Yes. The service reads only open chats – publicly available information, no private correspondence. The mode is strictly passive: reading only, no posting. Processing is built for GDPR: the legal basis is legitimate interest with a documented assessment (LIA), signals are not stored (delivered – deleted; the technical deduplication marker is erased after 15 minutes), processing takes place in the EU. The legal roles are set out in the contract.
Doesn't this break Telegram's rules? Will my account get banned?
The scanner only reads the chats the account belongs to – it publishes nothing, sends nothing out and adds no contacts; it performs no unlawful actions and breaches no limits. Telegram's restrictions are aimed at mass mailouts and automated actions; passive reading of your own chats has nothing to do with them. For peace of mind you can use a separate work account – we will help you set one up in ten minutes. In the time the service has been running, none of our clients has been banned. We cannot guarantee Telegram's decisions – which is exactly why we recommend a separate work account.
Do you store people's messages and data?
No. The signal is delivered to your chat straight away and is not saved in the system; auto-deletion is set up in your private chats (usually after a week). Technical deduplication keeps data for 15 minutes. The principle: delivered – deleted.
How much does Intentscanner cost?
From 42 €/month when paid annually (monthly – from 50 €). Three plans, prices per month when paid annually: Start (1 niche, up to 250 chats) – 42 €; Business (up to 3 niches, up to 500 chats) – 75 €; Scale (up to 9 niches, up to 1,000 chats) – 158 €. Paid monthly, the same plans cost 50, 90 and 190 €. Every plan includes personal consultations with the founder: Start – 30 minutes, Business – 1 hour, Scale – 2 hours a month. The Custom plan, on request: up to 25 niches, chats in blocks of 1,000, custom development on a dedicated server, 4 hours of consultation a month. Prices are shown without VAT: it is added at checkout at your country's rate – more on this in question 71, “What tax gets added to the price?”.
Which businesses is Intentscanner for?
The ones whose service people look for in chats: real estate, insurance (including for residence permits and visas), legal services, delivery and cargo, beauty, tourism, pet services, home services and repairs, event management, online business services. The common feature is regular demand that surfaces in open communities. If your niche is not on the list – write to us, we will check.
Will this actually work?
If there are requests in the chats, then yes – especially if there are many such chats; no – if nobody looks for your service in chats. The number of signals depends directly on the number and the activity of the connected chats. That is why we start with a check of your niche: before payment we show you examples of signals from your exact segment.
How do I start and how long will it take?
Write to us about what you do and where you look for clients – city, country or topic. We will show examples of signals and work out the price. The technical connection takes about an hour; in reality the launch usually fits into 1–3 days, including the discussion of the niche, payment and tuning of the dictionaries – and the pace is largely set by you.
