VELA turns a regular Telegram bot into your own personal AI assistant — no code, set up in a few minutes through BotFather. The bot runs 24/7 on the platform's servers and is powered by Claude (Anthropic). Ask it anything in plain language and it replies in your own language — any language, not just English.

What it can do:

• Weather — current conditions and a 5-day forecast for any city

• Currency, crypto and stock prices — real-time, plus indices, commodities and precious metals

• Reminders — one-time and recurring; it messages you at the right time

• Web search — answers using live results from the web

• Photo & document analysis — reads and summarizes images, PDF, DOCX, TXT, XLSX; recognizes text; estimates calories from food photos

• Morning digest — weather, prices and your reminders in one message each morning

• City guide — finds the best places near your location

• Flight search — finds tickets by route, month and budget

• Price alerts — notifies you when an asset hits your target price

• Image generation — creates pictures from a text description

• Long-term memory — remembers your name, city and preferences

• Google Workspace — Gmail, Calendar, Tasks and Drive in one connection

• Notion — search, read and create pages and database entries

• Telegram channel reading — summarizes posts from your channels

• Voice messages — transcribes and acts on them

Plans: Basic is free forever; Pro is $9/month ($7/month billed annually) and unlocks every module.

One assistant in the messenger you already use all day — instead of ten separate apps.
