    On Telegram you don't know someone's age or job title. You know what they've done with your bot — clicks, replies, orders, time of day. That's enough.

    Behavioral segments outperform demographic ones because the signal is fresh and the action is recent. Someone who clicked a product link yesterday is a better segment than 'female 25-34.'
