Getting Started
Link your Kolbo account to the WhatsApp or Telegram bot in 30 seconds
Linking the Kolbo bot to your account takes one email and one 6-digit code. Total time: about thirty seconds.
Step 1 — Open the bot
Pick the messenger you already use:
- WhatsApp: wa.me/13022661639
- Telegram: @kolboai_bot
Or scan the QR codes from the Kolbo Bot landing page.
Step 2 — Say hi
Send hi (or any message). The bot will greet you and ask for the
email address on your Kolbo.AI account.
Step 3 — Send your email
Reply with the email you use to sign in to kolbo.ai. If you don't have a Kolbo account yet, the bot will create one for you automatically on the free plan and grant 100 free credits to start.
Step 4 — Enter the 6-digit code
Kolbo will send a one-time verification code to that email. Reply to the bot with the code. Once accepted, your Kolbo account is now linked to this WhatsApp / Telegram identity.
The code expires after a few minutes and allows up to 3 attempts. If it expires, just send your email again to request a new one.
Step 5 — Start creating
You're in. Send any of the following to try it out:
a lone samurai meditating in an empty dojo, god rays through shoji screens— creates an image- Reply to that image with
now animate it— turns it into a short video upbeat 80s synthwave, instrumental, 120 BPM— generates musicread this aloud: "Welcome to Kolbo"— converts text to speechwhat's the weather in Tel Aviv?— chats with web search- Send a voice note instead of typing — Kolbo transcribes it and acts on what you said
Intent is auto-detected, so you don't need slash commands. See the Commands reference if you want to force a specific action.
Linking on both platforms
You can link the same Kolbo account to both WhatsApp and Telegram — just repeat the flow on the second platform with the same email. Both links share one credit balance and one generation history.
Privacy
- The bot never sees your Kolbo password. Linking uses a one-time code sent to your verified email.
- Your messages are processed by Kolbo's backend to run the requested generation. Kolbo does not forward your content to the messaging platform beyond what's required to send the reply.
- To unlink at any time, send
/logout— see Credits & Account.
