The bot
VUST · @vustSearchBot · 30% · 6-months window
Answers with sources are the upgrade everyone wants. Now your link earns on every one.
A question goes in, an answer comes back with the links it stands on. Every time someone who arrived through your link pays the bot in Stars, Telegram credits 30% to your balance, for 6 months.
VUST is an independent developer of Telegram bots. Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Telegram.

For anyone who needs a defensible answer: ask the bot a real question and it comes back with sources you can check. Costs Stars, works inside the chat.

Why this bot
01 · Why this bot, for this audience
The recommendation a tech or research channel can make honestly.
The paying user is anyone who needs an answer they can defend with a link, not a shrug — a weekly reality for four specific audiences, not a general pitch.
What it does
A question in. A sourced answer out.
Citations arrive with the answer — the audience can check before trusting, which is exactly the pitch.
Who pays for it
Students, researchers and anyone whose answers get challenged.
The audience already compares AI tools for a living; this is the one they end up keeping open.
Why it converts here
It answers a question your channel already gets.
You are not introducing a category. You are naming the tool for a job the audience already does badly.
Fits
Tech and AI channels — the sourced-search angle is the one they end up keeping.
Fits
Student, research and professional audiences who need answers with a defensible basis.
Poor fit
Entertainment or lifestyle channels where accuracy isn't the audience's concern.
Poor fit
Anywhere you would not check the bot's own sources yourself. The post reads as filler.
Fit beats rate. A 30% commission on a recommendation nobody taps is 0.

Model it yourself
02 · Model it yourself
Your channel, your assumptions.
Three presets move the two rates that decide everything: how many tap the link, and how many of those pay. Audience and spend stay where you put them. The horizon is capped at the 6 months the window actually runs.

Worked from assumptions
03 · Worked from assumptions
One tech channel, line by line.
The Expected preset, applied to a mid-sized AI and technology channel. One sentence per line, so you can see where every number comes from and disagree with it.
A model, not a record
A tech and AI channel with 11,000 subscribers
- 0111,000 subscribers see one post comparing search tools.
- 02220 of them tap the link — 2 in 100.
- 037 start paying for sourced answers — 3 in 100.
- 04Each spends 100 ⭐ in a month, a handful of real questions.
- 0530% of that spend is your commission: 210 ⭐ a month.
- 06The window is 6 months, so one post keeps paying for all of it.
- 07Nothing here compounds. It accrues, which is a different and duller promise.
1,260 ⭐ across the window. About $25.
A model, not a record. No payment described here has happened.
Comparison content converts here better than a plain review.
A tech audience already benchmarks tools against each other — the post that shows sources beating a guess does the work for you.
One payer moves a small channel's whole line.
Under about 2,000 subscribers the model returns fractions of a person. Read those as a coin flip, not a number.
Repeat spend is the part worth watching.
The commission is a share of payments, not of signups. A tool the audience returns to is worth more than one they try once.

How the money moves
04 · How the money moves
Real time, in Stars, straight from Telegram.
- When
The moment a referred person pays.
Not on a monthly cycle, not after a hold, not once a minimum is cleared.
- In what
Telegram Stars.
Credited to the balance of whoever joined — your channel or your personal account. You choose which at the moment you join.
- For how long
6 months from the moment they arrive.
Telegram keeps paying out the stated window even if the program is discontinued early.
- Who sets the terms
Telegram, on the bot's profile.
The exact rate and window are shown on that screen before you agree to anything. That screen is the source of truth, not this page.
VUST never mints a link, holds a balance, or approves a partner.
05
05 · Who owns what
Three parties, no overlap.
Nobody owns a promise of income. There isn't one.
06
06 · No form, no application
Nothing on this page to submit.
No application, no approval queue, no dashboard to be accepted into, and nobody at VUST deciding whether a tech channel is good enough.

Questions from DMs
Asked by channel owners, answered plainly.
The questions that actually arrive before someone joins, in the words they arrive in.
A channel you own can join, and so can your personal account. You choose which one earns at the moment you join, and the Stars land on that balance.
No, and this page doesn't claim it does — the pitch is sourced answers your audience can check, not infallibility. That honesty is easier to recommend, not harder.
New payments from that person stop counting toward your commission. Payments inside the window were already paid out in real time, and Telegram honours the full window even if the program ends early.
No. One post starts the attribution for everyone who taps it. Posting again reaches people who missed the first one — it does not reset or extend anyone's window.
No. Telegram runs the link, the attribution and the payout. We set the rate on the bot and nothing else. Your balance is not visible to us.
Nobody can tell you that, and the calculator does not pretend to. It multiplies out assumptions you set yourself. It is a model, not a forecast and not an offer.
Next step
Start with a question you actually have.
Ask the bot something your audience argued about this week. If the sourced answer convinces you, the program terms and your link are both on the bot's profile in Telegram.
The terms you agree to are Telegram's, shown in full before you join.
