Activate Group Premium on Telegram

Group premium on Telegram lets one subscribed member unlock unlimited voice transcription and AI for the whole group. Send /upgrade in the group, tap Activate premium for the group, and every member can mention @DoublegramScribeBot.

Group premium upgrades a standard @DoublegramScribeBot Telegram group from free transcription (50/hour) to unlimited voice + AI for all members. One active Doublegram subscription powers the entire group.

Who can activate

  • Any group member with an active Doublegram subscription
  • Admin status is not required to activate premium
  • The activator's subscription must be linked and active at activation time

Step-by-step activation

  1. Open the Telegram group where @DoublegramScribeBot is present.
  2. Send /upgrade (any member with a subscription).
  3. Read what group premium includes — unlimited AI, transcription, reminders, history search.
  4. Tap 💎 Activate premium for the group.
  5. Scribe confirms: ✅ Group premium activated by @yourusername

Activation uses a confirmation button so accidental /upgrade messages do not silently change the activator.

If the group is already premium

Scribe shows that premium is already active and who activated it. Only one premium activation applies at a time. To switch activators:

  1. The current activator opens /startSettings🔓 Release premium activation
  2. Another subscribed member runs /upgrade and activates

If you are not subscribed

/upgrade shows subscription perks and buttons to link account or choose a plan. After subscribing, run /upgrade again in the group.

What premium unlocks (summary)

  • Unlimited voice transcription (no 50/hour cap)
  • AI for all members — mentions, replies, reminders, history search
  • Full chat memory search for the group

Automatic replies (/reply) already work on the free tier — premium adds AI and unlimited voice.

AI credits

Group AI responses may consume AI credits from the activator's plan. The activator can set per-user and group credit limits in Settings → AI Management → Credit limits.

Quick reference

  • Command: /upgrade in group
  • Who: any subscribed member
