I made a Telegram bot to bring a little more fun to your chats

Hi! I built Mirra, a Telegram bot for couples, families and friends. I wanted to make something people could enjoy with the people they already talk to.

The idea is simple: give people another reason to talk, laugh or do something together, right where they already chat. No need to get everyone onto a new app or explain a long list of rules. Mirra offers a conversation starter or something to try together.

For a couple, that might be putting your phones away and spending ten minutes hugging. Or answering a question separately, with your partner’s answer revealed after you write yours. A small thing you can do together instead of spending another half-hour scrolling side by side.

In a family group, it might be sharing a childhood memory or an old photo. One person writes a few lines, another sends a voice message, someone else digs out a picture. Little by little, those contributions become a family chronicle. Everyone can join in however they feel comfortable.

There’s a playful friends mode too, although its content is still being translated beyond Russian. The couple and family chronicle features are already available in English. I am still working on the remaining translations.

You start the couple mode in a private chat with the bot and invite your partner using a link. The family mode works in your group. The basic features are free, with optional paid extras. I’d rather be clear about that upfront.

If this sounds like something your people might enjoy, you can try it here: https://t.me/AskMirraBot

If it gives you a good moment together, I’d honestly be happy. I would also appreciate feedback on the setup: is inviting a partner or starting a family group clear enough? What would you change?
