One phone.
Three ways to own it.
Every Telegotchi is the same phone. It holds no passwords. What changes is where the rest of your life lives: on the phone alone, on a home server we run for you, or on your own home server that nobody else can see.
Phone only. No server. For people who live in Telegram.
- Telegram: chats, voice notes, push-to-talk, Tune In invites
- Dictaphone. Recordings stay on the phone
- Spotify listen-along with friends
- Radio: sleep sounds and meditations
- Nearby, over Bluetooth
- Telegotchi lock screen. No Google
- AI through your own provider (your API key)
- No email, WhatsApp, Signal or calendar
What leaves the phone: your Telegram messages, and AI requests to the provider you choose. Nothing else.
Join the list →Phone plus a home server we run for you. Everything in one place, nothing to set up.
- Everything in Pocket
- Email, WhatsApp and Signal on the phone
- Calendar
- Voice memos turned into notes and actions
Where your data lives: on a server we run. We hold it. We say so plainly: if that matters to you, choose Sovereign.
Join the list →Phone plus your own home server: a Mac mini, set up and shipped to you.
- Everything in Hosted
- Agents that read, draft and plan for you
- Finance and leads
- AI and transcription run on your own Mac mini
- A private network between your phone and your home
Where your data lives: in your house. We hold none of it.
Join the list →Telegotchi is in beta. Expect rough edges: features change, some things will occasionally break, and updates arrive often. You get it early and help shape it. Prices may change before the first batch ships.

Same phone. It pairs with the server and your Telegram carries over.
We ship your Mac mini, move your data across in one step, then delete our copy.
We will let you know when the next batch is available.
Telegram on every tier. Email, WhatsApp and Signal come with a home server (Hosted or Sovereign).
Pocket costs €0–5 a month for updates. Hosted is €19 a month because we run the server. Sovereign is €9 a month for updates, the private network and support. The phone is yours either way.
