US TG Number De-duplication Guide: How Cross-Task De-duplication Repository Helps You Save Screening Costs

When batch screening numbers, have you noticed how many numbers are tested twice or even three times? Each repeated test is a wasteful consumption of your balance. For operational teams focused on US Telegram numbers, US TG number de-duplication is not just a data management issue—it’s a direct cost optimization strategy. This article will detail how the De-duplication Repository helps you achieve automatic cross-task de-duplication, avoid repeated charges, and ensure every penny is spent on “new numbers.”

Watch Out for the Cost of Repeated Testing

Each repeated test incurs a per-number charge. The higher the repetition rate, the greater the cost waste. The De-duplication Repository can save you up to 30% on screening fees, especially for US TG number screening scenarios with frequent multi-batch, multi-task operations.

Why Can US TG Number De-duplication Reduce Screening Costs?

How Much Money Is Wasted on Repeated Testing?

Take a team running US TG communities as an example: Suppose you need to test the activity of 10,000 numbers weekly, but 2,000 of them have already been tested before. If you submit the raw list without de-duplication, those 2,000 numbers will be charged again. With a repetition rate of 10%–30%, running this for a month could waste enough money to fund a full week of new number screening.

This waste is particularly severe in high-frequency operational scenarios:

Multi-batch number generation: Repeatedly using the same number range produces highly overlapping numbers.
Regular re-testing: Checking the same client list every 7 days for activity, even though some numbers never change.
Team collaboration: Multiple colleagues submitting their own tasks, resulting in overlapping numbers.

Without a De-duplication Repository, teams often rely on manual Excel comparisons or memorizing past results—which is inefficient and error-prone.

How Does the De-duplication Repository Enable Cross-Task Comparison?

The De-duplication Repository is a built-in cross-task number de-duplication mechanism on the KK-DATA platform. Once you submit a screening task and complete the test, all tested numbers are automatically stored in the de-duplication repository. The next time you submit any new task, the system will first compare the current numbers against the historical data in the repository, automatically remove already-tested numbers, and then execute the test. This means “test once, never repeat,” and it’s fully automated—no manual intervention needed.

This is the core advantage of cross-task de-duplication over ordinary single-task de-duplication: No matter whether you test 10,000 numbers today and another 5,000 tomorrow, as long as they are under the same account, the de-duplication repository automatically spans time and task types to achieve true multi-task unified de-duplication.

What Is the De-duplication Repository? How Is It Different from Ordinary Number De-duplication?

Ordinary number de-duplication usually refers to “de-duplication within a single task,” i.e., removing identical numbers from the same batch. This only solves “repetition within one list” and cannot handle repetitions across multiple tasks.

In contrast, the De-duplication Repository is a database that stores all historical test results, with the following characteristics:

Comparison Dimension	Ordinary De-duplication (Excel / Single Task)	De-duplication Repository (Cross-Task)
De-duplication Scope	Within the same batch file	Across all historical tasks under the same account
Time Span	Current task only	Across days/weeks/months
Automation Level	Manual filtering	Automatic comparison + removal
Cost Savings	Limited	High (avoid repeated charges)
Data Consistency	Relies on manual maintenance	Guaranteed by the system

In simple terms, the De-duplication Repository upgrades “one-time” post-hoc cleanup to “continuous” pre-filtering, fundamentally eliminating repeated charges.

How to Use the De-duplication Repository for US TG Number Screening and Save Costs

Below is a directly applicable workflow that helps you leverage the De-duplication Repository to control costs from number preparation to result export.

Step 1: Prepare a US Number List (Generate or Import)

You can obtain number sources in two ways:

Global Number Generation: In the console, select the “Number Generation” module, choose “United States” as the country/region, and the system will automatically generate random numbers that conform to US number ranges. Generation is completely free, and you can adjust the quantity as needed.
CSV Import: If you already have your own number list, upload the CSV file directly. Custom column names are supported.

At this point, you have a raw number list that may include numbers already tested in previous tasks.

Step 2: Enable the De-duplication Repository and Submit a Screening Task

Go to “Number Screening” → Select the test type “Telegram Activation/Activity Check.”
On the task configuration page, find the “De-duplication Repository” option, which is disabled by default. Be sure to check “Enable De-duplication Repository.”

De-duplication Repository Note

The De-duplication Repository is disabled by default. We recommend manually checking it before submitting each screening task. To achieve unified cross-task de-duplication, keep your account logged in; the system will automatically compare historical data.

Before submitting the task, the system will automatically compare the current numbers with the data in the De-duplication Repository, and display the “Number of Deduplicated Numbers” and “Actual Screening Count” in the estimated fee. The estimated fee shown is the actual charge after de-duplication, not the fee corresponding to the original number count.
Confirm and submit the task.

Step 3: View De-duplication Results and Export

After the task is completed, go to the task details page. You will see several key data points:

Total Submitted Numbers: The total number of numbers originally uploaded.
Number of Deduplicated Numbers: The count of historically repeated numbers automatically removed by the De-duplication Repository.
Actual Screened Numbers: The final number of new numbers tested.
Cost Savings: An estimated saving based on the number of deduplicated numbers multiplied by the unit price.

When exporting, you can choose “Newly Screened Numbers Only” or “All Numbers (with Deduplication Markers).” We recommend selecting “Newly Screened Numbers Only” to obtain unique results for this task, enabling precise operations.

Common Use Cases for the Cross-Task De-duplication Repository

Screen after Generating Multiple Batches of Numbers: You generate a batch of US numbers each week, with quantities ranging from 5,000 to 20,000. Since the same number range may be generated repeatedly, the De-duplication Repository ensures that only brand-new numbers are tested each time.
Regular Activity Re-testing: Re-check a previously tested list every 7 days. The De-duplication Repository automatically removes “non-expired” numbers—you only need to submit the full list, and the system charges only for numbers that need re-testing.
Shared Account for Multiple Users: Multiple colleagues submit their own tasks under a shared account. Each person’s task automatically shares the De-duplication Repository, preventing accidental duplication of new numbers across tasks.
Stage-by-Stage Screening Process: First screen for activation, then for activity, then for gender. Numbers from the same range appearing in different stage tasks are automatically identified by the De-duplication Repository, avoiding repeated testing of already-tested numbers in later stages.

Important Considerations When Using the De-duplication Repository (Avoiding Mistakes and Waste)

The De-duplication Repository does not delete original numbers: It only filters out already-tested numbers before submitting a task. It does not modify your original imported file. Each task result will list the “deduplicated count” for easy verification.
If you need to re-test: If a number’s status has expired (e.g., user deactivated), you need to manually clear that number’s record from the De-duplication Repository. Specifically, in the task settings, select “Clear the deduplication record for this number,” then submit the task. The system will treat it as a new number and charge accordingly.
Regularly back up your results: Although the De-duplication Repository saves automatically, for data safety, we recommend exporting the complete results of each task and saving them locally.
The De-duplication Repository is not suitable for numbers that require re-validation: For example, when a number has passed its validity period and needs to be re-tested for activity, clear the deduplication record first; otherwise, the system will automatically skip it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will numbers identified as duplicates by the De-duplication Repository still be charged?

A: No. The De-duplication Repository filters out duplicate numbers before submitting the task. Only new numbers are tested and charged by the piece. The “deduplicated” portion is completely free and incurs no charge.

Q: Can I share the De-duplication Repository across multiple tasks?

A: Yes. All screening tasks under the same account share the same De-duplication Repository, achieving true cross-task de-duplication and maximizing cost savings.

Q: What if I want to re-test a number that was previously deduplicated?

A: In the console task settings, select “Clear the deduplication record for this number,” then submit the task. The system will treat it as a new number and charge accordingly. Please note that after clearing, the number will no longer be blocked by the De-duplication Repository.

Q: Will the De-duplication Repository reduce my valid numbers?

A: No. De-duplication only excludes numbers that have already been tested; it does not accidentally remove numbers you need. Each task result lists the “deduplicated count” separately for verification, and you can export either “All Numbers” or “Newly Screened Numbers Only” as needed.

Q: After US TG number de-duplication, can I export only the unique new numbers?

A: Yes. When exporting the task, select “Newly Screened Numbers Only” to obtain the unique new results for this task, enabling precise operations.
