BotifyModBot
Telegram Mini App moderation, powered by a Node-RED flow.
BotifyModBot is the Telegram Mini App side of the Botify moderation toolkit. Hosted at botifymodb.xyz and powered by a dedicated Node-RED Railway deployment, it pairs a captcha-backed onboarding flow with a Mini App dashboard so group admins can review state, configure protection, and approve members from one place.
This page is a practical briefing for BotifyModBot. It covers what the tool does in plain terms, any outside helpers it works with, the real things to know first, and clear next steps if it fits what you need.
What it does
The features that make BotifyModBot useful inside the rooms it lives in.
Telegram Mini App moderation
Admin-authorized moderation workflows exposed through a Mini App so group admins can review and act from inside Telegram.
Captcha-backed onboarding
New joiners are routed through a captcha gate before they can post. Verification state is tracked per (group, user) pair.
Configured group protection
Group-level protection profiles. Each profile controls how the bot acts inside the groups where its admins have configured it.
PostgreSQL-backed state
Persistent gate state and audit records. Self-serve recovery flows let timed-out users re-enter on admin-approved terms.
Public dashboard
The public dashboard lives at botifymodb.xyz so admins and installers have a stable entry point for setup, status, and configuration.
