Connect a Messaging Platform
Opening the Admin Panel every time you want to talk gets old fast. Connect your AI companions to a messaging platform you already use, and your phone becomes the chat window.
Fastest: Telegram (5 to 10 Minutes)
Telegram is the easiest platform to set up.
- Search for @BotFather in Telegram and send
/newbot - Follow the prompts to create a bot and copy the Bot Token (a long string)
- In the Admin Panel, open the Ada (oc-2) tab → Settings → Messaging
- Paste the Bot Token and save
- Back in Telegram, find your bot and send
/start - Ada replies — you are chatting from your phone

Advanced: WhatsApp and LINE
Both require a developer account. Setup is longer, but the AI companions work the same way.
- Requires a WhatsApp Business API account
- Designed for businesses; not recommended for personal use
- Full steps
LINE
- Requires a LINE Developers channel
- Popular across East Asia
- Full steps
Which Companion Goes on Which Platform?
There is no strict rule, but a common setup:
- Ada — platforms your customers use (Telegram, LINE for support)
- Rose — platforms for internal admins (team channels, system alerts)
- Vi — data-oriented channels (upload spreadsheets for Vi to analyze)
Each platform can be bound to one companion. Each companion can serve many platforms at once.
What to Do After Connecting
- Train your AI — teach Ada your product knowledge, FAQs, and tone → Personality
- Set up automation — have Rose send you a daily system report → Daily Reports
- Connect more platforms → Messaging Overview
