public channels only · private chats need an upload

Forwards lose their source. Frames keep it.
Save the video
Tap save on the message, then drop the file here. Nothing connects to your account.
We extract keyframes
Compressed and re-encoded forwards still match — we index on structure, not file hash.
You get the first publication
Where and when the footage appeared before it entered the forward chain.
Channel forwards are occasional. So is the cost.
You check a suspicious forward now and then, not daily. A subscription prices you as if you did.
Top up $5, spend it whenever. Your balance never expires, and a search with no matches gets 50% back.

Do you connect to my Telegram?
No. You upload a file or paste a public channel link. We never touch your account.
Heavily compressed forwards — still works?
Yes. Matching is visual, so re-encodes and resizes survive it.
Can you identify the channel that posted first?
If it was public and indexed, yes. Private channels are invisible to every tool.
Is there a subscription?
No. $0.90 per search, balance never expires.
