How to Efficiently Screen Telegram Numbers After Global Number Generation? — A Complete Pipeline Operation Guide

In overseas marketing and B2B SaaS customer acquisition scenarios, Telegram has become a core channel for connecting with international users. However, obtaining a large number of real, active Telegram users usually requires first preparing a phone number database for the target country, then screening out numbers that are already registered on Telegram and meet activity requirements. The traditional approach is to manually collect numbers or purchase cheap data sources, then use a single tool for screening—this is inefficient and cost-uncontrollable. The pipeline model of post-generation Telegram number screening—first batch-generating potential phone numbers using a global number generator, then verifying their Telegram status using a screening platform—is becoming the industry best practice. This article uses KK-DATA as an example to break down each step of this pipeline in detail, compare the pros and cons of mainstream tools, and help you avoid detours in customer acquisition.

Why Do You Need the “Global Number Generation → Telegram Number Screening” Pipeline?

Pain Points of Traditional Customer Acquisition Methods

Many teams face the following difficulties when acquiring Telegram users:

• Unreliable number sources: Phone number lists purchased from third parties often contain many invalid, expired, or even fake numbers, leading to wasted screening costs.
• Time-consuming manual screening: Checking contact status one by one in Telegram allows at most a few hundred checks per day, which cannot meet batch requirements.
• Lack of activity judgment: Even if a number has registered for Telegram, the user may have long abandoned it. Traditional methods cannot distinguish between “logged in” and “recently active” users, resulting in low conversion rates for outreach.

These pain points make the linear process of “first get numbers, then screen them” inefficient and expensive. The pipeline model seamlessly integrates number generation and screening, greatly improving data quality and output efficiency.

How the Pipeline Improves Efficiency

By integrating global number generation and Telegram number screening into one process, you can:

1. Generate on-demand targeting: Generate random numbers within specific number ranges for target markets (e.g., Southeast Asia, Middle East, Latin America), avoiding purchasing irrelevant data.
2. Generate once, screen multiple times: The generated numbers can be used repeatedly for detection on different platforms (Telegram, WhatsApp, iMessage, etc., as needed), maximizing data reuse value.
3. Automated execution and result export: After submitting a screening task, the system performs batch detection in the background and automatically sends notifications upon completion—no need to manually monitor.

The core value of the pipeline is: Generate a massive number of potential numbers at low cost, then use precise screening to eliminate invalid numbers, so that only valid and active Telegram users enter your marketing list.

Step 1: Use a Global Number Generator to Batch Generate Target Numbers

KK-DATA offers a free global number generation feature, covering random number generation in 240+ countries/regions, global number range generation, and custom number range CSV import. The generation operation itself does not consume balance; only subsequent screening is charged per record.

Comparison of Generation Methods: Random Generation vs. Number Range Generation vs. CSV Import

Generation Method	Use Case	Advantages	Disadvantages
Random Generation	Get an overall activity rate of numbers in a country, or need a large batch of new numbers	Simple operation, one-click generation	Numbers are relatively scattered, cannot precisely control the range
Number Range Generation	Target specific carriers (e.g., Telcel, Aircel) or region number ranges	Numbers are concentrated, high hit rate	Requires prior knowledge of the target number range (can be obtained from carrier data)
CSV Import	Already have a number file, need to deduplicate or supplement generation	Retains existing data, can combine with deduplication warehouse	Requires a pre-prepared number list

Operation Steps (using the console as an example):

1. Log in to the KK-DATA Application Console.
2. Go to the “Global Number Generation” module, select the “Telegram” platform (or do not select a platform yet and generate numbers first, then screen later).
3. Choose a country (e.g., Indonesia) and quantity (recommended 100,000–500,000 per batch), then click Generate.
4. After generation, the number list is automatically stored in “My Numbers” library and can be directly used for screening tasks.

Balance Planning Before Generation

Since global number generation is free but screening is charged per record, it is recommended to estimate the target scale before generation. For example, if you need about 50,000 valid Telegram numbers and the Telegram registration rate in the target country is about 30%, you need to generate about 167,000 numbers. The screening cost will be 167,000 × unit price. Refer to the official pricing page or the real-time price in the console. It is recommended to recharge at least 50 USDT to ensure a smooth process.

Step 2: Import Generated Numbers into the Telegram Screening Module

After generating numbers, proceed directly to the screening stage. KK-DATA’s screening tasks can select multiple detection types simultaneously, and a single task can support up to about 1 million numbers.

Select Detection Types: Opened/Valid/Active/Gender

Detection Type	Meaning	Typical Use Case
tg opened	Whether the number is registered on Telegram	Basic filtering, exclude unregistered numbers
tg valid	The number can be searched or contacted on Telegram (not a restricted account)	Ensure the number can be used for direct messaging or group invitations
tg active	The number has logged in within a specified period (e.g., 7/15/30 days)	Suitable for scenarios requiring high reach rate, e.g., event notifications
tg gender	Identify user gender through Telegram avatar (only for public avatars)	Used for targeted marketing, e.g., female cosmetics, male games
tgid export	Export the user’s unique tgid for subsequent API operations	Commonly used by developers to automate friend adding via Telegram Bot

It is recommended to combine according to business needs: for general customer acquisition, “tg valid” + “tg active (30 days)” is sufficient; if you need more precise targeting, you can add “tg gender”.

Task Submission and Cost Estimate

1. In the console, go to “Screening Tasks” > “New Task”, select platform “Telegram”.
2. Check the required detection types, upload the generated number file (supports CSV, TXT).
3. The system automatically calculates the estimated deduction from balance; confirm and submit the task.
4. During task execution, you can view progress in the “Task List”.

Note: When submitting a task, the balance must be greater than the estimated cost. If the balance is insufficient, you can recharge via USDT (TRC20), with a minimum of about 50 USDT.

Step 3: Execute the Screening Task and Receive Result Notifications

After submitting the task, the system automatically performs batch detection in the background. The detection time depends on the number of records and the combination of detection types. Generally, detecting 100,000 records for “opened + valid + active” takes 10–30 minutes.

Result Export and Data Deduplication

• Export format: Supports CSV and TXT. You can customize fields (number, detection status, active days, tgid, gender, etc.).
• Deduplication warehouse: Imported numbers are automatically cross-task deduplicated against historical task data, preventing duplicate detection of the same number and saving balance. This is one of KK-DATA’s core designs to avoid waste.

Comparison of Mainstream Screening Tools: Features, Pricing, and Use Cases

Mainstream Telegram number screening tools on the market include 007data, thdata, etc., each with its own characteristics. The table below provides an objective comparison from key dimensions (prices are subject to real-time data on each platform):

Dimension	KK-DATA	007data	thdata
Number Generation	Free, 240+ countries random/range/CSV import	Charged or included as a gift with recharge	Requires separate purchase or custom upload
Telegram Detection Types	Opened, Valid, Active (7/15/30 days), Gender, tgid	Opened, Valid, Active (1–30 days optional)	Opened, Valid, Active (customizable days)
Billing Model	No subscription, pay per record, pay as you go	Both top-up and package models	Mainly per-record, minimum recharge required
Recharge Methods	USDT (TRC20), minimum 50 USDT	USDT, TRC20, Alipay (some available)	USDT, cryptocurrency
Data Deduplication	Automatic cross-task deduplication	No automatic deduplication, manual management required	Some versions support
Multi-Platform Support	Telegram, WhatsApp, iMessage, RCS, Number validity check	Mainly Telegram	Telegram + WhatsApp
Task Notifications	Telegram Bot notification	Email / in-site notification	In-site notification

Selection Suggestions:

• If you need free global number generation and value data deduplication and low-threshold pay-as-you-go, KK-DATA offers high cost-performance.
• If your team is already accustomed to the 007data interface and the price is acceptable, you can continue using it. However, note that its number generation usually requires additional payment.
• thdata is suitable for high-precision screening scenarios that need very short activity windows (e.g., 1 day), but it typically does not include built-in number generation.

Pipeline Best Practices and Notes

1. Test small-scale first, then scale up: Use 1,000–5,000 numbers to test the registration rate and activity rate of the target country. Evaluate ROI before expanding the generation scale.
2. Make good use of the deduplication warehouse: Before each screening, check the “Deduplication Warehouse” to see if historical detection results exist for the same numbers, avoiding duplicate charges.
3. Combine multi-platform screening: If you need both WhatsApp and Telegram users, first generate a set of numbers, run Telegram screening, then import the valid numbers into WhatsApp screening (note: ensure the numbers are already registered on WhatsApp). KK-DATA supports cross-platform task chaining.
4. Back up after export: Screen results should be exported locally and stored in the cloud to avoid data loss due to platform cleanup.
5. Anti-fraud inquiry: KK-DATA’s official channel @kkdata_channel posts anti-fraud reminders. Make sure to identify the official customer service @kkdata_cc and do not trust any private messages claiming to be “official customer service.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: After global number generation and Telegram screening, will invalid numbers be wasted?

A: Number generation is free; only screening is charged per record. It is recommended to generate first, then use “tg opened” detection to quickly filter out unregistered numbers (lowest unit price), and only perform subsequent “valid + active” detection on those that pass. This can save about 70% of costs.

Q: Generation is free, but screening is charged. How to control costs?

A: It is recommended to recharge at least 50 USDT first, test the registration rate of the target country with a small batch (e.g., 5,000 records). If the registration rate meets expectations, scale up proportionally. Additionally, use the deduplication warehouse to avoid re-screening the same numbers.

Q: Which is more suitable for Telegram screening, KK-DATA or 007data?

A: The features are similar. The main differences are that KK-DATA offers free global number generation and automatic cross-task deduplication, while 007data’s packages may include more detection day options (e.g., 1-day activity). If your business requires frequent generation of new numbers and has a limited budget, KK-DATA is more economical. It is recommended to try out small batches on both and choose based on your experience.

Q: After exporting results, how to import them into a friend-adding tool or other CRM?

A: The exported CSV contains numbers, tgid, gender, etc. For Telegram friend-adding tools, the number column is usually sufficient. If tgid is required, refer to the tool’s API documentation. KV-format CSV can be directly opened and organized in Excel.

Q: Can I generate numbers for all countries at once and then screen them all together?

A: Yes. But note that a single task supports a maximum of 1 million records, and costs may vary by country (some countries have slightly higher unit prices). It is recommended to generate and screen in batches by target market for easier analysis of conversion rates.
