Born out of my obsession with GDB Iben Gabirol and the pain of checking Wolt every 5 minutes to see if they're open for delivery. Now the bot does it for me.
GDBot is a Telegram bot that watches Wolt restaurants and pings you the moment they open for delivery.
You: "vitrina"
GDBot: 🔶 Vitrina Iben Gabirol - Pickup only (no delivery)
Want me to notify you when delivery opens?
You: [Yes, notify me]
... 20 minutes later ...
GDBot: 🟢 Vitrina Iben Gabirol is now OPEN for orders!
👉 Order here: https://wolt.com/...
