Why comment to DM beats link in bio
"Link in bio" asks someone to leave the reel, open your profile, find the link and tap it. Most people stop at the first step.
A comment takes one tap, and the link arrives where they already are. Every comment also tells Instagram the post is worth showing to more people, so the automation helps reach as well as clicks.
Set it up in four steps
- 1Connect your Instagram creator or business account.
- 2Choose the reel or post, or every post.
- 3Add the keyword and an optional public reply.
- 4Write the DM with a link button and turn it on.
When a post gets bigger than Free
The first reel that really lands is usually when people upgrade, and not only for the DM count. Pro adds follow guard, which sends the link only to people who follow you and asks everyone else to follow first. That turns a viral post into followers as well as clicks. Pro is $12 a month, and new accounts get 14 days of it free.
What the free plan includes
Not a trial and not a demo. These stay on for as long as you use the account.
500 automated DMs a month
Resets on the 1st. No contact cap, so a reel that lands never uses up the plan by itself.
3 live automations
Each one can watch a post, a reel, every post, or your DMs for its keywords.
Comment to DM and DM keyword replies
Someone comments or messages a keyword, they get your DM in seconds, with an optional public reply.
Link buttons with click tracking
Every DM can carry a button. You see who clicked, per keyword, on the dashboard.
1 lead form, 1 document, 1 link page
Collect emails from the DM button, or send a hosted guide instead of a file link.
Official Instagram API
Meta OAuth only. We never see your password, and disconnecting deletes the stored tokens.
Free and Pro, side by side
Free is built to do one job well. Pro is for when automation becomes part of how you sell: more posts running at once, DMs only to followers, leads going straight into a sheet.

Questions about the free plan
Can I auto DM people who comment on Instagram for free?+
Yes. On autoreplyig's free plan you can run 3 comment to DM automations and send 500 DMs a month. Anyone who comments your keyword gets your message in their inbox within seconds.
Does it work on reels, posts and ads?+
It works on feed posts and reels, either one specific post or every post you publish. Comments on a boosted post count too, since it is the same post.
Do I have to use an exact keyword?+
No. Matching ignores case and finds the keyword inside a longer comment, so "LINK please" and "link!!" both trigger it. You can add several keywords to one automation.
Can the bot also reply publicly to the comment?+
Yes. Add a short public reply like "Sent you a DM!" and it goes out with the message. It tells everyone scrolling that commenting works, which tends to bring more comments.
Will Instagram limit my account for sending lots of DMs?+
Comment to DM through the official API is something Meta explicitly allows: each comment can get one private reply, sent through Meta itself. What gets accounts limited is unofficial tools that log in with your password and imitate a person.
