Frequently asked,

Everything you'd want to know before letting a witty bot into your group chat.
Is Gepetel free? +
Yes. Adding Gepetel and using every feature is free. Each group gets a generous daily allowance of replies. The only thing you'd ever pay for is bumping that limit up — and only if your group is chatty enough to hit it.
How do I add it to a group? +
Scan the QR on the home page (or tap Add to a group) to open a chat with Gepetel, and save it to your contacts as "Gepetel". Then open your WhatsApp group → Group info → Add member → choose Gepetel. It'll drop a quick hello and then mostly leave you alone until needed.
Will it spam my group? +
No — being quiet is the whole point. It only speaks when you mention it, when you're clearly replying to something it just said, or when a long-dead chat could use a nudge. It won't butt into your conversations, list its features, or fish for things to do.
What can it actually do? +
The crowd favorite is finding places — ask it for a nice restaurant on the beach in Vourvourou, Greece and it'll come back with the spot, its hours, phone, and what it's known for. Beyond that: reminders (one-off and recurring), polls, splitting bills, generating and editing images, tracking action items, web searches, and reading the links you share. Just ask in normal language — no commands to memorize. Full rundown on the features section.
What languages does it speak? +
Whatever your group speaks. It picks up the group's language automatically and replies in the same natural, everyday register — loanwords and all. It also handles voice notes, images, and shared links.
Does it read all our messages? +
It receives group messages so it can decide whether a reply is warranted and stay in context — same as any group member. Unread messages are cached only briefly and cleared once processed, and its activity log auto-deletes after 14 days. The full breakdown is on the privacy page.
Can I message it privately? +
You can, but a 1:1 chat is deliberately limited to three things: extending a group's daily limit, passing a message to its creator, and helping you build a bot like it. For everything else, it's a group act — that's where it shines.
How do I remove it? +
Like any other member: open Group info, tap Gepetel, and remove it. No hard feelings — it won't even make it weird.
Still curious?
The fastest way to understand Gepetel is to just add it.
