AI Personal Assistant
One Assistant for the Day's Asks — in Telegram.
Ask, summarize the thread that landed on you, read a contract screenshot, verify a number against sources — the four verbs of daily work in one place that's already open on your phone. No new app, no access to your inbox: what you paste is what it works on.
Honest scope
An assistant you feed — not an agent that roams
VUST doesn't connect to your email, calendar or files and never acts autonomously: the workflow is paste-in and forward-in. There are no reminders and no calendar writes. Screenshots go through text OCR — it reads what's written, not "the image." If you want an agent with autonomous inbox access, that's a different product category with different risks; our boundary is drawn on purpose.
See the difference
Three moments of an ordinary day — and what the assistant does in each.
A day's worth of asks — one assistant in Telegram
- Forwarders
- A long work thread, a dense email you pasted, a screenshot of a contract clause — you need the gist and a reply draft
- Forward or paste it into @vustbot: long text gets summarized, a photo or screenshot is OCR'd so you can ask about what it says, and the reply draft comes back in your tone.
- Fact-checkers on the go
- Someone states a number in a meeting and you need to verify it before you repeat it
- @vustSearchBot returns a synthesized answer with openable source links — and for a claim you'll really lean on, the Council of Sages cross-checks it across Claude, Grok and Gemini.
- One-account minimalists
- You want one assistant setup, not five subscriptions across five apps
- Chat, summarization, sourced search and cross-checking share one Balance in Telegram — free tier to start, one Pro subscription when you go daily.
How the daily workflow actually runs
- 01
Ask and switch models
Open @vustbot and ask — GPT-5.6 Luna and Gemini 3 Flash answer free; switch to GPT-5.6, Claude or Gemini 3.1 Pro mid-chat when the task deserves a heavier model.
- 02
Feed it what lands on you
Paste a long email or thread for a summary right in chat; PDFs (up to 50 pages), YouTube links and article URLs are handed over to the summary specialist @vustSummaryBot on the same Balance. Screenshots get their printed text OCR'd so you can ask about it.
- 03
Verify before you act
For facts, ask @vustSearchBot and open the sources it cites. For high-stakes answers, run the Council of Sages and see where three models disagree before you commit.
One assistant in the app you already have
Ask, summarize, OCR a screenshot, verify with sources — @vustbot and its sibling bots share one Balance, free tier to start.
Honest scope — an assistant you feed, not an agent that roams
No inbox or calendar access
VUST does not connect to your email, calendar or files, and won't act autonomously on your behalf. The workflow is paste-in and forward-in: what you give it, it works on. If you need an assistant that reads your inbox on its own, that's a different (and riskier) product category — we're not it, by design.
Screenshots are read, not seen
Photos and screenshots go through text OCR — the printed text is extracted (up to ~6,000 characters) and handed to the model. It reads what's written; it doesn't reason about a chart's shape or a photo's contents beyond the text in it.
No reminders, no scheduling
There's no reminder engine or calendar-write feature — asking "remind me tomorrow" won't set anything. VUST's job is the thinking work: answers, summaries, drafts, verification. Your calendar app keeps the calendar.
Frequently asked questions
What can this AI assistant actually do day to day?
Four verbs: ask (multi-model chat — GPT-5.6 Luna and Gemini 3 Flash free, GPT-5.6/Claude/Gemini 3.1 Pro above), summarize (pasted threads and emails in chat; PDFs up to 50 pages, YouTube links and article URLs run through the summary specialist @vustSummaryBot — @vustbot hands the link over, same Balance), read (screenshots and photos via text OCR, so you can ask about what a document says), and verify (sourced search with openable citations via @vustSearchBot, plus a three-model cross-check for high-stakes answers). All of it inside Telegram on one Balance.
Does it read my email or calendar?
No — and we treat that as a feature, not a gap. VUST has no access to your inbox, calendar, files or accounts, and never acts autonomously on your behalf. The workflow is paste-in and forward-in: you decide what the assistant sees, message by message. If a product promises to roam your inbox unsupervised, ask it how — we'd rather be honest about the boundary.
Can it set reminders or manage my schedule?
No. There is no reminder engine and no calendar integration — "remind me tomorrow at 9" won't set anything, and we won't pretend it will. VUST covers the thinking work of a personal assistant: answers, summaries, drafts, verification. Scheduling stays with your calendar app.
How does the screenshot feature work — is it a vision model?
It's text OCR, not open-ended vision. Send a photo or screenshot and the printed text is extracted (up to about 6,000 characters) and handed to the model as context — so questions about a contract clause, an error message or a menu work well. It does not interpret charts by shape, recognize faces, or reason about image content beyond the text in it.
What does it cost — and what's actually free?
Starting is free: the free tier answers on GPT-5.6 Luna and Gemini 3 Flash, and new users get a welcome bonus for the pay-per-use tools. Two paid tiers above that: Core ($7 / 30 days) unlocks the everyday pre-flagships — GPT-5.6 Terra and Claude Sonnet 5; Pro ($19 / 30 days) adds the flagships, including Claude Opus 4.8, Gemini 3.1 Pro, Grok 4.5, GLM-5.2 and Kimi K3, daily sourced-search allowances, the Council of Sages and specialist-bot access. Either way it's one Balance across VUST bots, not five separate meters.
Why an assistant in Telegram instead of a dedicated app?
Because the assistant you actually use is the one with zero switching cost. Telegram is already open, already synced across your devices, and your Telegram account is the login — no new app, no email signup, no card to start. The trade-off is honest: you get chat-shaped workflows, not a dashboard; if you want folders of saved workspaces, a dedicated app fits better.
The pieces of the daily workflow.
