Frequently asked questions
What is Instagram DM automation?
It is software that sends an Instagram direct message automatically when someone takes an action, such as commenting a keyword on a Reel, replying to your Story or messaging you. It works through Instagram's official API and only reaches people who interacted with you.
Is Instagram automation safe?
Tools that connect through Instagram's official login and API, never ask for your password and send within Meta's limits are the supported approach. Browser extensions and password-sharing bots break Instagram's rules. No tool can promise an account will never be restricted.
Is there a free way to start?
Yes. ReplyKaro's free plan includes 1 Instagram account, 3 active automations and 1,000 DMs a month, with no card and no expiry. Other tools also have free plans with different limits; our alternatives page lists them with sources.
