# Commands

Telegram bots for years have been built purely to run commands and with the Modr8 platform we have a set of built-in commands and the ability for you to create and customise your own.

Modr8 built-in commands are there to help you manage your bot and your community from within Telegram. If you are looking to issue a warning, ban someone or even promote a user to be an admin you can do this with our built-in commands. We've provided a [full list of them here for you.](/features/commands/built-in-commands.md)

Custom commands are those which you can build with the Modr8 platform. These are a great way for you to offer quick content, news and announcements in your chat for users to self-serve. You can take a look at [how to build a custom command](/features/commands/creating-and-managing-custom-commands.md) with Modr8 here.

If you have a use-case which a command or custom command can not meet, then you'll be glad to know Modr8 can be customised with "Actions", which are "if this happens then do that" type of rules and offers a much larger set of features than a simple command could offer you. Feel free to check out our overview and guide pages here to learn more about [Modr8 Actions.](/features/actions.md)
