Gupshup vs Telegram Bot API: What are the differences?
Developers describe Gupshup as "Build, deploy and host your bots across all messaging channels". Build interactive services and messaging bots for any messaging channel using our REST APIs. Most of the APIs are common across channels, while a few are channel-specific, due to differences in channel formats. Our APIs support both plain-text messaging as well as smart-messaging formats. On the other hand, Telegram Bot API is detailed as "HTTP-based interface created for developers keen on building bots for Telegram". Bots are third-party applications that run inside Telegram. Users can interact with bots by sending them messages, commands and inline requests. You control your bots using HTTPS requests to our bot API.
Gupshup and Telegram Bot API can be primarily classified as "Chatbot Platforms &" tools.
