Could you build this?
Partial The UI, channels and bots are buildable, but a real messenger needs audited end-to-end encryption, reliable calls and message delivery at scale, which are demanding to get right.
What it would actually take: A prototype can use the open Signal protocol libraries for encryption, WebRTC for calls, and a real-time backend for delivery and channels. The hard parts are security (key management, secret chats that stay on one device, and an independent audit) and infrastructure for calls and message fan-out. Import from Telegram and WhatsApp also needs format reverse engineering. A production version requires cryptography and distributed-systems expertise.
