Hi Product Hunt 👋
I built VELA because every AI assistant I tried lived in yet another app. I already
spend the day in Telegram, so the assistant should be there too.
You create a bot in BotFather, paste the token into VELA, pick what it should do —
and you have a private assistant running on Claude. No API keys, no server, no code.
Basic plan (free): 15 messages a day, weather, reminders, notepad, morning digest, web
search, photo and document analysis, currency/crypto/stock and commodity quotes, city
guide, long-term memory.
Pro plan ($12/mo, $9/mo billed yearly): unlimited messages, flight search, price alerts,
advanced crypto search, image & video generation, Telegram channel reading, Google
Workspace (Calendar, Gmail, Tasks, Drive), Notion.
Happy to answer anything in the comments.

Who hunted VELA?
VELA was hunted by Boris Komarov. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it.
