I build custom Telegram bots for businesses in Toruń and across Poland. A simple bot handling FAQs and bookings starts at €600; a full assistant with CRM integration and payments runs €2,500-5,000. Most projects land live in 2-5 weeks, depending on scope.
What the bot handles
A Telegram bot isn't just a chat window. I build tools that work for a business around the clock:
- Instant replies to common questions - pricing, availability, opening hours, location
- Appointment bookings and scheduling without staff involvement
- Order status updates and delivery notifications sent automatically
- Lead capture with qualifying questions routed straight to CRM
- Payment flows via Stripe or local gateways, with receipts sent in-chat
For retail businesses I build in-chat catalogs with cart and checkout. For clinics and service providers - booking systems with calendar sync. For logistics - shipment tracking panels for both dispatchers and customers.
Pricing and timelines
| Scope | Price | Timeline |
|---|---|---|
| Simple bot (FAQ + contact) | from €600 | 1-2 weeks |
| Bot with bookings or notifications | €1,200-2,000 | 2-3 weeks |
| Advanced bot (AI, CRM, payments) | €2,500-5,000 | 4-6 weeks |
Hosting and maintenance: €40-80/month depending on traffic and integrations. A full breakdown of software development costs is on the 2026 pricing guide.
How the work goes
We start with a 30-45 minute call to map out what the bot needs to do and where it saves time or money. I send a fixed quote within 1-2 working days.
I build in stages and share demos after each one - you can test it in real Telegram before it goes live. Scope is locked before we start, so there are no mid-project surprises. After handover I handle any corrections for 30 days at no extra cost.
Toruń and all of Poland, remote
I work fully remote, so location doesn't limit anything. A bot for a business in Toruń gets the same quality of work as one for a client in Warsaw, Gdansk, or Berlin. Calls over Zoom or Teams, documentation in English or Polish, invoices in EUR.
If your business in Toruń needs 24/7 customer coverage or wants to cut down on repetitive inbox work, see the Telegram bots service page and tell me what you want automated.
Why me
I write bots in Python (aiogram) and Node.js - not no-code builders, which handle maybe 20% of what custom code can do. Integrations are built around what the business already uses: Google Sheets, Airtable, WooCommerce, proprietary APIs, popular CRMs.
The Telegram Bot API is free - no per-message fees, no platform license. You pay only for server hosting and any external APIs (e.g. GPT-4o or an SMS gateway). For a typical small business bot, that's €20-50/month total.

FAQ
How much does a Telegram bot cost for a business in Toruń? A simple FAQ and contact bot costs €600-900. A bot with appointment bookings, a calendar, and automated reminders runs €1,200-2,000. Adding AI responses (GPT-4o or Claude) and CRM integration adds €800-1,500 on top of the base. Server hosting: €5-15/month.
How long does it take to build a Telegram bot? A simple bot takes 7-10 working days. A bot with integrations and payment flows - 3-4 weeks. Advanced projects with AI and multiple user roles realistically take 5-7 weeks. Rushed builds come back needing fixes, so I don't promise "ready in a weekend."
What can a Telegram bot actually do for my business? 24/7 customer support without staff, lead capture with qualifying questions, appointment booking with automatic reminders, digital product sales, order status notifications. Telegram messages have roughly 80% open rates - far above email or SMS.
Can I integrate the bot with my existing CRM or store? Yes. I connect bots to WooCommerce, Shopify, Airtable, Google Sheets, and custom databases. For CRM - Pipedrive, HubSpot, Bitrix24. If your system has an API, it can be connected.
What is the difference between a Telegram bot and a Mini App? A bot works through commands and buttons in the chat - fast to build, works on any device. A Mini App is a full web application that opens inside Telegram, with a visual interface, cart, and payment support. Mini Apps start at €2,000 and make sense when you need a richer UI.
Is the Telegram Bot API paid? The Telegram Bot API itself is completely free - no per-message charges, no user limits, no platform license. You pay only for server hosting (from €5-10/month) and any external APIs like GPT-4o or an SMS gateway. A small business bot typically costs €20-50/month to run.
Do you work with businesses outside Toruń? Yes - I work with companies across Poland and Europe. Location is not a factor. Everything runs remotely, with invoices in EUR and contracts in English or Polish.
