How it works

Four steps. Half a second.

No SMS codes. No copy and paste. No friction.

User enters their phone number

Your app collects the phone number. Vorht SDK takes over from here — no SMS gateway configuration, no carrier contracts.

We dispatch a Telegram confirmation

A one-tap confirmation message is routed through our global edge network and delivered directly inside the user's Telegram app.

User confirms with a single tap

No codes to memorize, no links to open. One tap inside Telegram authenticates the session. Average confirmation time: 0.3 seconds.

Session is established

Vorht validates the response, creates an encrypted session token, and returns control to your application. Done.

app.vorht.com / telegramLIVE

// Install the SDK
npm i @vorht/sdk

// Initialize with your Telegram bot token
import { Vorht } from "@vorht/sdk";

const vorht = new Vorht({
  apiKey: process.env.VORHT_API_KEY,
  telegram: {
    botToken: process.env.TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN,
  },
});

// Send a verification — that's all
await vorht.verify({
  phone: "+1234567890",
  channel: "telegram",
});

Why Telegram

Faster than SMS. Cheaper than SMS. Better than SMS.

Sub-500ms delivery

Our edge network routes Telegram webhooks through the nearest regional node. Messages land faster than SMS infrastructure can physically deliver.

End-to-end encrypted

Verification payloads are encrypted at rest and in transit. Telegram's MTProto encryption plus our cryptographic challenge layer — zero plaintext exposure at any point.

190+ countries covered

Telegram operates globally with no carrier dependencies. No regional rate limits, no country-specific compliance hurdles — one integration, worldwide reach.

Real-time analytics

Track delivery rates, confirmation times, and drop-off points by region. Every webhook event is logged, indexed, and searchable in your dashboard.

Intelligent fallback routing

If Telegram delivery stalls, Vorht automatically fails over to WhatsApp or email. Your user never sees an error — the experience is seamless.

Five lines of code

Install the SDK, configure your bot token, call vorht.verify(). No infrastructure provisioning, no webhook wrangling — we handle the orchestration.
