Webhooks catch comments instantly + polling reconciliation so nothing slips through.

01

Handle the spike

When a reel gets thousands of comments at once, the queue absorbs the burst, respects Meta rate limits, and logs each outcome.

02

Both reply types

Send a private DM with your tracked link and, if enabled, a short public reply so the commenter knows to check their inbox.

03

Every comment accounted for

See sent, skipped (wrong keyword/cooldown), failed, and rate-limited states with reasons — perfect for agency audits.

FAQ

Search questions,
answered clearly

Everything you need to know before launching your first comment-to-DM campaign.

Can I auto-reply to every comment?

You can, but we recommend keyword scoping so only high-intent comments get the DM. You control the keywords per campaign.

Does polling duplicate webhooks?

No. Comment jobs are deduped by comment ID so a comment seen both ways is processed once.

Turn the next high-intent
comment into a private reply

OpenInstaDM is built for Instagram professional accounts, official Meta private replies, and campaign reporting teams can show clients.
