Turn well-formatted Telegram channel posts into a filterable spreadsheet
- Problem
- A user follows movie resources in a Telegram group where posts are consistently formatted but mixed with endless short dramas they never watch, forcing manual scrolling. Telegram itself can't export channel history as structured data, and common export tools dump raw JSON or choke on media, with no way to filter out unwanted categories.
- Solution
- A lightweight exporter that reads history from a chosen Telegram channel using the user's own account, parses messages through a custom field template (name, type, quality, link) into a table, filters out blacklisted keywords, and exports Excel or CSV with incremental updates.
- Users
- Telegram users subscribed to well-formatted resource channels, and community operators building searchable archives.
- MVP
- Read selected channel history via the user's account; parse posts with custom regex field templates; filter by keyword blacklist; export Excel/CSV; remember the last exported message for incremental runs.
- Revenue
- Free limited exports plus a subscription for unlimited exports, multi-channel sync and auto-increment at ~$3/mo; or a one-time desktop license.
- Why now
- Channels keep growing while official and mainstream tools only dump raw JSON — nobody does goal-specific structured conversion, a durable need in resource communities.
