Question 1

How many countries does Telegram Ads Spy cover for Telegram advertising?

Accepted Answer

Telegram Ads Spy currently tracks ads served in 93 countries on Telegram, with 205,261 classified creatives in total. Coverage is strongest in markets with active Telegram Ads cabinets and high paid-channel activity. Top countries by volume: Russia (86,042), India (21,583), Iran (17,412), Indonesia (11,461), Myanmar (Burma) (10,535).

Question 2

How is a country assigned to each Telegram ad?

Accepted Answer

Each creative is classified by advertiser intent, reading the strongest available signal in priority order: the landing-page country-code TLD (.de, .tr), the writing script (Cyrillic, Arabic, Burmese, Devanagari…), an explicit country flag emoji, the unambiguous language of the ad or its destination channel, and only as a last resort the region of the Telegram pool account that observed it. Every assignment carries a confidence tier (strong, medium or weak). A creative that matches a country on observation alone — with no content, language or TLD signal — is treated as a global blast and excluded from that country's confident total, so per-country counts reflect real targeting rather than fan-out noise.

Question 3

What signals does each country page expose?

Accepted Answer

Per country: total ad volume, top niches (e.g. crypto in TR, gambling in DE, dating in IN), top advertisers running in that geo, channel coverage, payment source split (TON vs EUR Telegram Ads Cabinet) and ad-creative gallery. Drill into /countries//niches/ for cross-cuts.

Question 4

Is geo data available via API?

Accepted Answer

Yes — https://tgadsspy.com/api/v1/geos returns per-country aggregates; https://tgadsspy.com/api/v1/ads?geo=DE filters the creative archive. Both endpoints are documented at /api-docs. Free tier 60 req/min, CC-BY-4.0 license.
