Scan Telegram for copies of your content
Detect illegal copies of your titles on Telegram, one of the largest online platforms with nearly a billion monthly active users
What is Telegram
A brief history behind Telegram journey to becoming one of the biggest online media platforms in the world with almost a billion monthly active users
What is Telegram
Launched in 2013, Telegram is one of the world’s largest and fastest-growing online platforms, with nearly 1 billion monthly active users.
Originally a messenger app focused on high-level encryption, Telegram has evolved into much more. It now allows users to:
- Exchange messages
- Share media and files up to 4GB
- Hold private and public livestreams
- Create public groups with up to 200,000 people
- Share content with unlimited audiences
- Make audio / video calls, publish stories, and more
For a platform of this scale, the real challenge is monitoring content effectively. Telegram’s moderation, largely powered by AI, relies heavily on volunteers. This approach leads to a lack of proactive measures in preventing the distribution of illegal copyrighted material.

Telegram Copyright Policy
Telegram complies with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). The main challenge lies in efficiently detecting infringements and notifying the platform accordingly.
When a bot, channel on Telegram infringes on copyright, the affected party has the option to report the violation. Telegram handles such complaints through a designated email, dmca@telegram.org, where copyright owners or their authorized agents can submit their reports. However, Telegram specifies that it does not handle issues related to private chats and group chats, as these communications are considered private among the participants.
It’s also possible to remove content on Telegram via the App Store or Google Play, directly through channel managers, or via support.
Even with various content removal methods available, the biggest challenge remains detecting illegal copies on Telegram. Telegram Scan by WebKyte solves this problem, helping to keep Telegram free of unauthorized copies of your content.
