Insights and tracked links
Find out where your fans come from, which posts sell, when to post and whether your ads pay off.
Insights answers the questions that decide what to do next: where your fans come from, how many of them pay, which posts are worth repeating, when to post, and whether money you spend on promotion comes back.
The numbers and the funnel
Pick a period (7, 30 or 90 days) to see new people, first payments, revenue and how your channels grew. From Start to paying follows the people who first opened your bot in that period step by step — age check, saw your plans, opened the payment, paid. Each percentage is of the step before: where it drops, that is where to look.
Many people stop between saw the plans and opened the payment? Try an introductory offer. Many open the payment but do not finish? Switch on the unpaid-checkout reminder (see Referrals and reminders).
Where people came from
Every promo post gets its own link for each network, and your public channel gets a named invite for each network. So Insights can tell you that, say, Bluesky brought 40 people this month and 6 of them paid. People are counted by the first link they came through.
For places promo posts do not cover — your Instagram bio, Linktree, a forum signature — create your own tracked links on the same page. A bot link opens your offer; a channel link is a named invite into your public channel.
Worth repeating
Posts that did best on the networks, at least two weeks old and not repeated yet. Shares and replies count double — they carry a post further than a like. Promote again makes a draft for the networks only, ready to schedule.
Best time to post
A map of the week shows when your fans paid and joined over the last 90 days, hour by hour in your time zone. Once there are enough payments, VelocityBot picks your three best slots — they appear as quick picks next to the time in the post editor and are used by evergreen recycling.
Ad spend and return
Paid for a shoutout or an ad? Create a tracked link for it and enter what it cost. Ad spend and return then shows, for all time, how many people came through it, how many pay, what they brought, the cost per paying fan and the return on your money.
Revenue is shown in euros as an estimate of your payout: Stars × the value of one Star (about 0.012 € by default — roughly what Telegram pays out). Change the value to what actually reached you.
Reports in Telegram
You do not have to open Insights every day. Your bot sends the operators a daily summary at the hour you choose — the day's numbers, what is planned for tomorrow, the best promo post and anything that needs your attention — and short notes about new subscribers, sales or problems as they happen. Choose what you get under Settings › Figures.
