Read any public Telegram channel or group into structured JSON — message text and media, view counts, forward totals, reactions, and author handles, from public previews only.
Telegram hosts vast public channels and open groups used for news, crypto, and community broadcasting, all viewable through public web previews. The Telegram Scraper API reads these public channel and group pages, parsing each message with its media, view count, forwards, and reactions into clean JSON — no private chats or direct messages are ever accessed.
OSINT analysts, crypto researchers, and newsrooms use it to monitor public broadcast channels at scale without joining each one manually. We capture public channel and group content only and standardize message metadata so high-volume feeds stay queryable and joinable.

Broadcast reach and forward analysis
No. We only read public channels and groups exposed through Telegram's public web previews. Private messages, closed groups, and DMs are never accessed.
Yes. For public channels we capture each message's view count, forward total, reactions, and timestamp so you can measure the reach of broadcast content over time.
Structured JSON straight from the API, or pushed to your stack natively — S3, BigQuery, Snowflake, Postgres, Kafka, or any HTTPS webhook. Call it from Python, Node, Go, Rust, or any HTTP client. The data lands where your pipeline already lives.
No. You pay for valid, schema-passing rows only. Retries, blocks, CAPTCHAs, and 5xxs are on us. If a run doesn't return data that conforms to the schema, it isn't billed.
Every request routes through the same engine behind our Web Unblocker API: compliant residential IPs, real browser fingerprints, TLS-level evasion, behaviour modelling, and built-in CAPTCHA solving. Hard targets become routine.
Yes. We respect robots policies, rate budgets, and ToS-aware allow/deny lists. We deliver and move on — no row-level retention beyond your replay window. GDPR DPA, PII redaction, and custom data residency available on request.
