Telegram may have become the central hub for Web3 communities, but managing groups, automating workflows, and keeping conversations clean can overwhelm even the most active teams. This is where Nova, an AI-powered Telegram bot, steps in.
Built to answer blockchain questions, automate tasks, prevent spam, and execute scheduled actions, Nova delivers real utility with full on-chain accountability — while relieving users of any underlying blockchain complexity. And, powered by Geomi's infrastructure, Nova is scaling faster, responding smarter, and delivering ever more seamless experiences to Telegram communities everywhere.
Nova In a Nutshell: An AI Assistant for Everything Crypto + Community
Nova began as a simple idea: make Telegram communities smarter and easier to manage. Today, it's an all-in-one AI assistant that helps groups stay informed and safe while automating tasks that normally require multiple bots.
With Nova, Telegram communities can:
- Get real-time blockchain data (eg "What's the price of GUI right now?" or token price history)
- Protect groups from spam with automated moderation
- Schedule daily or hourly prompts, such as recurring price updates
- Automate payments, such as ambassador rewards
- Use Nova as an AI chat assistant capable of answering technical questions
- Customize welcome messages, rules, and user onboarding
- Soon: enable cross-chain funding via Circle Wallet integration
Although Nova's functionality expands with each update, one feature remains constant: every action is fully transparent on-chain.
On-Chain Everything, Thanks to Aptos
One of Nova's key innovations is that each bot request can become an on-chain transaction on Aptos. This means actions are verifiable, trackable, and secure. But it also creates a challenge – bots generate a lot of requests.
This is where Aptos shines. According to Nova founder Francisco Cortes:
"For an app like Nova, every AI request is a transaction. We need fast execution and ultra-low fees. Aptos makes that possible."
Francisco previously operated Nova on other chains, and explored alternatives like Alchemy and Solana. But as soon as Nova shifted to Aptos, the difference was immediate:
- Sub-second execution keeps the AI responses snappy
- Low fees eliminate the need to batch or compress activity
- High throughput ensures Nova can scale effortlessly as more users join
For a bot that may process thousands of micro-interactions inside Telegram groups, this reliability is essential.
How Nova Uses Geomi: Gasless Onboarding + Scalable Micro-Transactions
Two Geomi features are essential for Nova's user experience: Gas Station and API access.
1. Gas Station: Frictionless Account Creation
Most Telegram users don't have Aptos wallets – nor should they need one just to use a bot.
Nova uses Geomi's Gas Station to let users:
- Create an on-chain account instantly
- Interact with Nova without holding APT
- Try the bot with zero setup, no wallet apps, and no onboarding hurdles
"With Geomi, users can create an account without needing gas or even knowing about Aptos. This is one of the biggest reasons why we chose it."
Smooth onboarding is even more critical as Nova prepares to integrate Circle Wallet, which will let users fund their Aptos account via tokens from other chains like BNB Chain.
2. Geomi API: No Rate Limits
Nova fires off enormous numbers of requests—spam checks, AI queries, scheduled messages, price updates, and more.
Every one of those interactions can become an on-chain event. Without Geomi, Nova would hit rate limits immediately.
"We use Geomi to avoid rate limits on all these micro-transactions. Every message Nova checks—spam detection, price requests—consumes resources. Geomi makes it all possible."
The result is a Telegram bot that behaves like a consumer app: always responsive and always consistent.
Why Nova chose Geomi for the Long-Term
Launched in September 2025, Nova is still early in its journey — but momentum is building quickly as Web3 communities discover the value of AI-powered automation, real-time blockchain intelligence, on-chain transparency, and zero-friction onboarding.
Nova's decision to build on Geomi wasn't just about technical performance — it was about trust. Francisco has been building on Aptos since early 2023, back when Geomi was still known as Aptos Build. As the infrastructure evolved, it consistently delivered stable, predictable performance while other platforms introduced friction.
"We've never had any problems with multi-process execution. Transactions go fast. Everything works. So yes — we're confident that Geomi will support Nova as it scales."
As more Telegram communities integrate Nova, the volume of on-chain activity it drives will only accelerate. Looking ahead, the team's roadmap includes:
- Circle Wallet integration for multi-chain deposits
- Expanded token support beyond the current SES token
- Deeper moderation tools
- Richer AI chat capabilities
- More advanced transaction tracking across all micro-actions
- A dedicated dashboard for group management and automation
With Geomi's infrastructure at its core, Nova has the foundation it needs to scale into one of the most powerful automation platforms in the Telegram ecosystem.
What This Means for the Future of Telegram Automation
Nova may be young, but its adoption is already picking up as Telegram communities look for smarter automation, real-time blockchain insights, and onboarding that feels familiar to Web2.
Geomi has become a core part of that momentum. Its fast, reliable infrastructure lets Nova execute micro-transactions, process automations, and maintain on-chain transparency without slowing users down.
Nova is accelerating its growth with multi-chain deposits through Circle Wallet, broader token support, deeper moderation tools, richer AI chat capabilities, enhanced transaction tracking, and a unified dashboard that brings everything together in one place.
With these upgrades on the way, Nova is moving towards making advanced on-chain automation effortless for every Telegram community.
