Multi-source lead pipeline with dedup
Problem
Handyman leads surface in Facebook groups and Telegram expat groups, in four languages, faster than anyone can manually watch — and scraping Facebook directly with automation risks getting the account banned.
Solution
Two independent, ban-safe intake sources feed one pipeline: a Telethon-based Telegram userbot reading expat group chats from a real logged-in account (no scraping, no automation flags), and a push-based Facebook relay through n8n. Both land on a single intake listener that keyword-filters across EN/DE/FR/RU, dedupes by content hash in SQLite, and fuzzy-matches near-duplicate leads from different sources into one card before pushing it to Telegram. A read-only stats dashboard tracks demand across two independent business verticals from the same data.
