You reply to Instagram comments and DMs automatically and capture leads in message flows. Five verified tools compared on price, free plan, channels and extra costs.
Instagram DM automation replies to comments and messages with preset flows or AI, then captures leads. Manychat is the Instagram-first option and has a free plan. SleekFlow is a shared inbox with CRM, Robofy and Stammer.ai build AI agents, and Landbot is a no-code chatbot builder for websites and WhatsApp. Three of the five publish no entry price, and only Manychat and Landbot list a free plan. Meta restricts messaging outside its 24-hour window and requires opt-in for marketing messages, so automations must follow Meta's platform policy. Compare channel limits and add-on costs in the table.
