If you are looking for an Entergram alternative because you sell inside Telegram as an IB or forex affiliate, the short answer is that the two tools do different work. Scalegram is the Telegram CRM for IBs and forex affiliates: one AI bot on your own Telegram answers every lead, checks the deposit against the broker's own records over a read-only API, opens the paid group and files the client. Entergram sells a shared workspace where a team works Telegram chats as CRM rows and support tickets.
That split decides most of the choice. A team of five agents handling customer chats needs a shared inbox. One owner with a channel, a broker link and leads arriving at 3 am needs the questions answered and the deposit confirmed without anyone watching.
What Entergram says it sells
The Entergram home page is headed "Scale your business. Telegram CRM & Support Platform" and lists "Turn Telegram Chats Into a CRM", "Telegram Analytics & Response-Time Tracking" and "Turn Telegram Chats Into Linked Support Tickets". It also lists integrations with Slack and Notion, a REST API, and a Telegram MCP for AI tools.
The CRM page describes "Stage columns, tags, reminders and personalized broadcasts" and a "Shared workspace, contact records and saved views". Import a contact list and, in its words, "the columns you imported become custom CRM fields". Replies "land in the shared inbox against the CRM record", and the page mentions "an AI agent that triages and drafts replies".
The support page is about tickets: "Turn any Telegram message into a tracked ticket - status, priority, assignee and SLA, no bot." It adds response time, reply rate and per-agent SLA compliance.
The broadcast tool page says you can "Send a Telegram broadcast or newsletter from real personal accounts, not a bot", with a maximum of 100 recipients per job. The same page advises spreading volume across accounts and starting with a small batch such as 20 recipients.
On price, the Entergram pricing page lists Basic at €29 a month and Pro at €39 a month, with 5 Telegram accounts in every plan and €5 a month for each extra one. Pro adds analytics, ticketing, the API and MCP, and the Notion and Slack integrations, among others. It offers a 3 day free trial on Basic.
That is a tidy product for support desks, community teams and sales teams that live in Telegram chats, and it is cheaper at the entry point than Scalegram's Lite plan. Its outbound broadcasts are also something Scalegram deliberately does not have.
What Scalegram is built to do
Scalegram starts from one sale. A lead comes from an ad or a post, signs up at the broker, deposits, and the owner has to know before opening the paid group. Everything in the product hangs off that sequence.
- The bot answers every message in the language it arrived in, from the product knowledge, saved replies, pictures, PDFs and cloned voice you gave it.
- An AI condition reads the conversation and decides whether this person is ready to buy, still deciding or not a buyer, and each gets a different branch.
- The ready branch sends your broker link and asks for the email or account number when it needs one.
- The bot looks the email up in the broker's IB portal or the prop firm CRM over a read-only API: whether the account exists, whether a payment completed, which plan, whether KYC passed. Every call is a GET.
- When the records say yes, it approves the join request for the paid group, writes UID, email, broker, deposit and a dated note onto the client card, and moves the stage forward.
- Anyone who goes quiet gets a follow-up that cancels itself the moment they reply.
The walk through is in the AI bot for Telegram leads guide, and the deposit check has its own page: how to verify a broker deposit automatically.

| Pipeline | Stage columns, tags, reminders, custom fields | New, Contacted, Interested, Account Opened, Deposited, Active, Churned, moved by the bot |
| Tickets and SLAs | Status, priority, assignee, SLA | Not a support desk |
| Outbound broadcasts | Personalized broadcasts from real personal accounts | None. The account connection is read-only |
| Broker deposit check | Not described on the pages read | Looked up live in the broker's records, read-only |
| Ad tracking | Not described on the pages read | Tracked links, joins reported server side to Meta, TikTok and Snapchat |

Where the difference shows up
Broadcasts against a read-only connection
Entergram's broadcast page is candid about the trade: sending from personal accounts carries a risk, and it advises pacing and dedicated IPs. Scalegram took the opposite position. Its personal-account connection is read-only by design, with no bulk sending and no drip campaigns, and the only write it can make is saving an address-book contact when you click it. If your offer depends on mass outreach to cold lists, Entergram's broadcast tool fits that job and Scalegram does not. If your leads come to you from ads and you would rather not risk the account, the read-only design is the point.
The lead who says "I already deposited"
A shared inbox puts that message in front of an agent, who checks the broker portal by hand. In Scalegram the bot asks for the email, looks it up at the broker and answers from the record, so a claim in the chat is confirmed at the source. The lead who is telling the truth gets into the group at 3 am. The one who is not gets an honest answer.
What is kept
Entergram's home page says "message bodies and chat history aren't warehoused beyond what the live product needs". Scalegram stores no message at all: there is no message table in the product, and the bot reads an earlier chat only when the per-bot Earlier Conversations switch is on, for that one reply. The reasoning is in why a Telegram CRM should not store messages.
From ad click to deposit
Most IB leads are bought with ads, and the ad platform stops at the click. Scalegram gives every link a tracked address with UTM parameters, reads fbclid, gclid, ttclid and sccid, and reports each join server side, so the deposit is tied to the ad that bought it. The Entergram pages I read describe analytics on response times and reply rates, not ad attribution. For that problem see the best Telegram tracker list.
Who should pick which
Pick Entergram if a team shares Telegram accounts, works support tickets against SLAs, or runs personalized broadcasts, and if you want the API, Slack or Notion connections. Its own pages describe that job, and the entry price is low.
Pick Scalegram if you are an IB, forex affiliate, prop firm affiliate or channel owner and the sale ends with a checked deposit and an opened door. It runs on your own Grok, OpenAI or DeepSeek key and is priced by counts: Lite is $99 a month with one bot, one Telegram account and 10,000 clients, and Scalegram is $999 a month with no counts. Every feature is on both plans. The pricing section has the rest and how it works shows the flow. For the wider field, read the best Telegram CRM 2026 list.
