Telegram Project Management Bot
Your team already answers Telegram in seconds and opens the PM tool twice a day. Corcava's bot brings the work to the chat: create and update tasks, start and stop timers, and get deadline alerts — with instant two-way sync to your workspace.
No credit card required · Included in the $9/user/month plan
What the bot does
Most of what you can do through the Corcava dashboard, you can do through the bot. It's not a notification firehose bolted onto a PM tool — it's a working interface to your projects and timesheets, in the app your team actually keeps open.
Task Management
Create, assign, and update tasks via Telegram commands — capture work the moment it comes up in conversation.
Time Tracking
Start and stop time tracking directly from Telegram, so hours get logged when the work starts — not reconstructed on Friday.
Notifications
Real-time updates about tasks, projects, and deadlines, delivered where your team will actually see them.
Quick Reports
Request project status and summaries via bot commands — answer "where are we?" without opening a dashboard.
Team Coordination
Coordinate with team members while keeping work organized — decisions in chat become tracked tasks, not lost messages.
Two-Way Sync
Changes sync between Telegram and Corcava instantly. Update in either place, both stay current.
Command reference: what you can do from chat
Everything below runs through bot commands in Telegram and syncs to your Corcava workspace instantly.
| You do this in Telegram | What happens in Corcava |
|---|---|
| Create a task | A new task appears on the project board, ready to assign and schedule |
| Assign or update a task | Assignee and status change on the board; the assignee is notified |
| Start time tracking | A timer starts against the task — hours land on the same timesheet as desktop and mobile tracking |
| Stop time tracking | The time entry is saved and available for reports and billing |
| Request a quick report | The bot replies with project status and summaries on demand |
| Nothing — just stay in the chat | The bot pushes real-time notifications about tasks, projects, and approaching deadlines |
Where teams get the most out of it
Agencies that live in Telegram with clients
Plenty of agencies run day-to-day client communication in Telegram groups. The gap is what happens next: a request lands in chat, someone says "on it," and nothing enters the PM tool.
With the bot, the account manager turns the request into a tracked task without leaving the conversation — assigned, on the board, visible to the whole delivery team. Nothing lives only in a scrollback.
How agencies run on Corcava →Field and on-the-go teams
Installers, on-site consultants, photographers, event crews — people who work away from a desk won't open a web dashboard between jobs, but they will tap a Telegram message.
They start the timer when they arrive, stop it when they leave, and get their next assignment as a notification. Back at the office, the hours are already on the timesheet — billable and report-ready.
Worked example: the untracked-hours leak
A 6-person studio bills $60/hour. Like most teams, work that starts in chat often never reaches the timesheet — quick fixes, small client requests, "while you're at it" tasks.
Before the bot
After the bot
- ✓Requests become tasks in the same chat where they arrive — nothing depends on someone "logging it later."
- ✓Timers start from Telegram, so even 20-minute jobs get tracked.
- ✓Recovering even two-thirds of that leak puts ~$1,250/month back on invoices.
- ✓Cost of the whole platform for the team: 6 × $9 = $54/month — the bot included.

Telegram bot FAQ
What is a Telegram project management bot?
It's a bot that connects your Telegram to a project management system, so you can create and update tasks, track time, request status reports, and receive notifications directly in chat. Corcava's bot syncs two ways with your workspace — a change made in Telegram shows up in the dashboard instantly, and vice versa.
Can I track time from Telegram?
Yes. You can start and stop time tracking directly from Telegram. The hours land on the same timesheet as time tracked from Corcava's desktop, web, and mobile apps, so they flow into reports and billing like any other entry.
What notifications does the bot send?
Real-time updates about tasks, projects, and deadlines — assignments, status changes, and approaching due dates. Your team gets nudged in the app they already check constantly instead of in an inbox they don't.
Do I need the dashboard at all if I use the bot?
Most day-to-day actions — tasks, timers, quick reports — work from chat. The dashboard remains the place for bigger-picture work: boards, detailed reports, invoicing, and client portal management. The two stay in sync, so use whichever fits the moment.
Is the Telegram bot an extra paid add-on?
No. It's included in Corcava's single $9 per user per month plan, along with project management, time tracking, CRM, invoicing, and the client portal. You can try everything free for 14 days, no credit card required.
