About

A simple directory for public Telegram

Tenthon is a search engine for public Telegram channels, groups, and bots — a place to find them without digging through invite links passed around in chats.

What it does

Search pulls up public channels, groups, and bots by name, description, and category, ranked with the most-subscribed listings surfacing first. Every listing links straight to the real Telegram page — Tenthon is just an index, not a replacement for Telegram itself.

How listings get added

Anyone can submit a public link through Add Link — no account or sign-up needed. The link is checked against Telegram's own public preview page, and only added once it clears a short set of requirements:

Public

No private invite links — it has to be reachable at a normal t.me/username address.

Has a name

At least 4 characters, so it's recognizable in search results.

1,000+ members

Applies to channels and groups, based on their public subscriber count.

Bots need a bio

Telegram doesn't expose a bot's user count publicly, so a real description is required instead.

Keeping listings current

Telegram data changes — names get updated, subscriber counts rise and fall, channels sometimes shut down. Update Link lets anyone refresh a listing's details on demand. If a channel or group has dropped below the subscriber threshold, or is no longer reachable at all, it's automatically removed rather than left stale.

What Tenthon doesn't do

It doesn't read or index private messages, private groups, or anything requiring an invite link.
It doesn't create accounts or require a login for searching, submitting, or updating a listing.
It doesn't sell or share data with advertisers.
