# LeadGenRunner — an AI radar for active demand in Telegram > LeadGenRunner is not classic lead generation — it is a radar for active demand. Your future customers have already said what they need in public Telegram chats; LeadGenRunner makes sure you hear it first. It monitors public Telegram groups and channels 24/7, detects buyer-intent messages (e.g. "looking for an accountant", "need a contractor"), filters out noise with AI, classifies each lead as hot / warm / cold, and drafts a suggested first reply. LeadGenRunner turns the chaos of Telegram into a manageable stream of inbound requests. Demand ("I'm looking for a master / lawyer / accountant") is scattered across hundreds of local, regional and niche chats and is impossible to track manually; the most valuable requests are intercepted by competitors within minutes. LeadGenRunner is an "AI radar for active demand inside Telegram": you set the criteria, and the service continuously brings you live requests from people who need your product or service right now. It is a self-service B2C SaaS: the decision maker, user and payer are the same person (a business owner, freelancer, or micro-business). The core paying audience today is Russian-speaking service businesses and independent masters, with a growth focus on the Russian-speaking diaspora in the EU. ## How it works 1. Connect a Telegram account via the official Telegram API (MTProto). The password is never stored; sessions are encrypted; chat content is not retained. 2. Select the groups and channels to monitor (or let AI Channel Discovery suggest relevant ones from a description of your business). 3. Set keywords and stop-words (an AI assistant can generate both from your niche). 4. The system watches those chats in real time (reaction time ~30 seconds), matches keywords, filters spam, and classifies each lead with AI as hot / warm / cold. 5. You get real-time alerts via the Telegram bot, plus a ready-to-edit AI-drafted reply for each relevant lead. ## Key features - 24/7 monitoring of public Telegram groups and channels - Keyword + stop-word filtering, plus AI classification (hot / warm / cold) to remove noise - AI-drafted suggested replies for each lead - AI Channel Discovery: describe your business and AI finds and ranks relevant chats - AI keyword & stop-word generation from your niche - Real-time notifications through a Telegram bot - Contacts / pipeline view with lead statuses and notes - Statistics: timeline, heatmap, per-chat and per-keyword performance - Multilingual interface (8 languages) ## Pricing - Starter — $9/mo: 1 Telegram account, up to 9 chats, 500 leads/month, AI keyword & stop-word assistants, AI lead classification (hot/warm/cold). - Pro — $29/mo: 1 account, up to 100 chats, 5,000 leads/month, everything in Starter plus AI Channel Discovery and advanced statistics. - Business — $59/mo: 2 accounts, up to 150 chats, 15,000 leads/month, everything in Pro plus AI-drafted replies and priority support. - Agency — $99/mo: 3 accounts, up to 200 chats, unlimited leads, white-label and API for resale. - Enterprise — custom pricing, dedicated manager, SLA, custom integrations.

Responding to a request that was posted publicly is not cold outreach. ## Links - Web app: https://app.leadgenrunner.com - User guide: https://leadgenrunner.com/guide - Blog: https://leadgenrunner.com/blog - Terms of Service: https://leadgenrunner.com/terms - Privacy Policy: https://leadgenrunner.com/privacy - Telegram channel: https://t.me/leadgenrunner ## FAQ - Is it legal to message people who asked in a public chat?
