Engagement triggers

Start the right conversation from the right Instagram interaction

01

Post and Reel Comment-to-DM

Send a private reply after a person leaves a matching comment on selected Instagram content. Use keywords for specific intent or broader matching when appropriate.

02

Story reply automation

Trigger a configured response when someone replies to an Instagram Story with a selected message or keyword.

03

DM keyword matching

Let the same automation recognize a supported keyword sent directly in DMs, so customers can enter through comments or private messages.

Private replies that lead somewhere useful

Build a clear next step into every automated DM

A first reply should do more than say hello. ReplyFlow can deliver a concise message with actionable buttons, helping people reach a product page, booking flow, registration page or another relevant destination.

  • Use URL or postback buttons supported by the connected channel
  • Add up to three buttons in supported Comment-to-DM templates
  • Enable tracked links to measure clicks and unique clicks
  • Apply a click tag for later segmentation when configured
  • Keep the message concise and aligned with Meta messaging rules

Here are the details you requested.

Audience controls

Match the response to customer intent

Keyword-based automation

Create separate paths for requests such as “PRICE,” “MENU,” “BOOK,” “SIZE” or “INFO” instead of sending the same generic reply to every interaction.

Per-entry deduplication

Automation behavior can prevent repeated delivery from the same entry point while still recognizing a later supported interaction through another entry path.

Follower-aware rules

Where Instagram exposes the relationship, audience rules can treat known followers differently. When the status is unknown, a one-tap confirmation flow may be used before delivering the requested content.

Contact tags and segmentation

Use supported tags and custom contact data to distinguish interests and create a more organized follow-up process.

Inbox and conversation management

A clearer workspace for Instagram customer communication

Connected conversations

View supported Instagram DM conversations from connected accounts in a structured inbox.

Comment activity

Review supported comment events and reply through the available Instagram comment workflow.

Conversation context

Use conversation history and contact information to understand what happened before a human follow-up.

Measurement

Understand what happens after the first reply

Available analytics help you evaluate whether customers receive and engage with automated messages and how your inbox workload changes over time.

  • Automation delivery and read activity where the platform provides it
  • Tracked link clicks and unique clicks
  • Conversation and messaging volume
  • Response-time trends and source breakdowns where enabled
  • Post and account analytics when the required permissions are connected

Responsible automation

Designed around Instagram’s supported business permissions

ReplyFlow connects eligible Instagram professional accounts through supported authorization flows. Messaging, comments, publishing and analytics depend on the permissions granted by the account and the capabilities Meta makes available.

Professional account required

Instagram Business or Creator accounts are required for supported API capabilities. Personal accounts cannot use these features.

Messaging rules still apply

Automation does not remove Meta’s conversation windows, permission requirements or limits on follow-up messages.

Availability can vary

Some features depend on account eligibility, granted scopes, plan configuration and changes made by Instagram or Meta.

Feature FAQ

Questions about ReplyFlow features

Can I choose which comments trigger a DM?

Yes. You can use keyword matching for high-intent comments and configure the relevant content or scope supported by the automation.

Can an automated DM contain a link?

Supported private-reply templates can include URL buttons. Link tracking and click-based tagging can also be enabled where available.

Does ReplyFlow support Story replies?

ReplyFlow can use supported Instagram Story reply events as an automation trigger. Configuration and availability depend on the connected account and permissions.

Can I see whether someone read a message?

Read and delivery data are shown only when Instagram or the connected platform provides the relevant signal. Availability is not identical across every channel or message type.

Does ReplyFlow allow unlimited promotional messages?

No. All messaging remains subject to Meta’s policies, permissions and conversation windows. ReplyFlow should be used for relevant, expected and compliant communication.
