# Aria on Telegram and Slack

> Talk to Aria from Telegram or Slack with the same brand voice as web Chat.

You can message Aria from Telegram or Slack — same brand context as web Chat. Start in the app, connect the channel, then pick which brand Aria should use.

## Use Aria in Telegram

Best when you want quick answers on your phone.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Message the Aria bot">
    Open Telegram and message the Aria bot. It replies with a secure link to connect your Engram account.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Confirm in Engram">
    Open the link, sign in if needed, and wait for **Telegram connected**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Tell Aria which brand">
    Back in Telegram, send `/use` followed by your brand name (Engram shows the exact command after you connect). Example: `/use acme`.
  </Step>
</Steps>

If the link expires, send `/start` (or any message) in Telegram to get a new one.

## Use Aria in Slack

Best when your team already works in Slack channels.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Connect Slack">
    In Engram, open **Connectors**, connect Slack, and finish signing in to your Slack workspace.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add Aria">
    Choose **Add Aria to Slack** and complete the connect flow until you see **Slack connected**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Pick the brand">
    In Slack, send `/use` plus your brand name (Engram lists the exact commands after you connect).
  </Step>
</Steps>

## What you can ask

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="On the go">
    In Telegram: ask for a quick take on a competitor post, then continue the same brand work later in web Chat.

    In Slack: ask Aria to draft a Monday brief, edit it, then share the approved version in the channel.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Tips

* Brand Brain still sets voice and facts. Telegram and Slack only change **where** you talk to Aria.
* During first-run setup, Engram may also offer a **Web call** or **Phone call** with Aria. That is separate from Telegram and Slack.
* Each person who wants Aria in Telegram or Slack should connect their own account.
