Getting Started
Welcome to Lynkly Guide. This documentation will help you set up your personalized information hub, bridging the gap between your digital communications and AI-powered insights.
Quick Tip
For the most seamless experience, we recommend setting up your Telegram integration first. This serves as your primary notification and command interface for all Lynkly summaries.

Open the @LynklyBot on Telegram.
Click "Start" and copy your unique Activation Code.
Paste the code in your Lynkly dashboard under "Integrations".

Automated Fetching
Lynkly scans your priority emails and creates smart summaries every 6 hours by default.
Privacy Controls
We only access the "subject" and "body" of non-sensitive categories for summarization.
Add Website Subscriptions
Stay updated with your favorite blogs, news sites, and journals without leaving Telegram.
