Full-text search over marketplace listings published on tgden's public Telegram storefronts across Thailand, UAE, Turkey, Vietnam, USA and Russia: what sellers offer and what people seek, with price, place and date. Returns listing snippets with dates. For Telegram channels use search_telegram; for what people ask for in chats use telegram_demand.

Discovered
search_telegram

Full-text search over the tgden catalog (1.8M+ channels, 456k+ group chats, 228k+ bots) with subscriber/member counts, categories and trust scores. Needs no Telegram account — this is the public catalog, so it finds communities the user has NOT joined. Use type to restrict to one entity kind.

Discovered
telegram_demand

Live weekly index of REAL buyer requests posted in public Telegram group chats — what people are looking for / asking for in a country right now. Use it for questions like 'what are people looking for in Telegram in <country>' or 'is there demand for <service> in <city>'. Ads, sellers, bots and mass mailings are excluded, so every number is actual demand from real people, counted per weekly index. Pass `topic` in the asker's own words (any language), `country` as an ISO-2 code, and optionally `query` to also get recent example requests (anonymised: contact details and links to the message are redacted).
