Use the Telegram bot for voice notes and expenses

Connect Telegram once, then forward voice notes to get transcripts back and send expenses, receipts and bank alerts from your phone.

  2. Step 2. Press Start in Telegram

    Press Start. The bot replies “Connected to …” with your workspace’s name. The chat is linked to the workspace you were in; to change it, press “Use this workspace instead” on the Transcribe page of the other workspace.

  3. Step 3. Forward a voice note

    Forward a voice note from WhatsApp or record one in the chat (audio files up to 20 MB work too). The transcript comes back in the chat with Speaker A, B… and is saved in Transcripts, where you can name the speakers. Paid plans also get a summary.

  4. Step 4. Send an expense

    Type what you spent, for example “₦3,500 lunch at Chicken Republic, cash”, or send /expense and then a voice note saying it within 5 minutes. It is added to your latest open trip (a new trip is started if you have none), and the bot confirms with a link.

  5. Step 5. Send receipts and bank alerts

    Send a receipt photo or PDF: it is saved to your latest trip, and a photo sent within 10 minutes of a voice expense is attached to it. Forward your bank’s debit alert and it is added, marked “Please check” so you can confirm it in the app.
