Comment "GUIDE" delivers your freebie automatically while the public reply keeps the algorithm happy.

Is Instagram comment automation free?

Yes. Repli's free plan automates Instagram comment replies and comment-to-DM with daily message credits, keyword triggers and lead capture, with no credit card required.

The free tier is a full sandbox rather than a crippled trial: every feature is unlocked so you can test comment replies, DM flows and lead forms on real traffic. Automated DMs sent on the free plan carry a small Repli watermark, and once your daily credits are used the automations pause until the next day. Upgrading to Pro at ₹499/month removes the watermark and raises the limits.

How does comment automation actually work?

Meta sends Repli a webhook the moment someone comments. Repli matches the comment against your keywords, posts a public reply, then delivers a private DM through the official Instagram Graph API.

Because everything runs on approved API permissions, there is no browser automation, no scraping and no session hijacking — the same channel Meta uses for its own tooling. Repli respects the 24-hour messaging window, so DMs only go to people who engaged with you first.

Frequently asked questions

Is Instagram comment automation free with Repli?

Yes. The free plan includes keyword-triggered public comment replies, comment-to-DM, lead capture and analytics with daily message credits and no credit card.

Will automating comments get my account banned?

No. Repli runs entirely on Meta-approved Instagram Graph API permissions. There is no scraping or simulated clicking, which is what actually triggers Instagram enforcement.

Can I reply to every comment automatically?

Yes. Use the wildcard * trigger to respond to every comment on a post, or set specific keywords to respond only to high-intent commenters.

Does it work on reels?

Yes. Comment automation works on feed posts, reels and live videos, and you can apply an automation to one post or all posts at once.

How many comments can the free plan handle?

The free plan runs on daily message credits that reset every 24 hours. Viral posts keep processing the next day, and Pro plans lift the ceiling.

Do I need an Instagram Business account?

Yes. Instagram only exposes comment and messaging webhooks for Business or Creator accounts. Switching is free inside the Instagram app.

Can I edit an automation after it is live?

Yes. Keywords, replies, media and targeted posts can all be edited at any time and changes take effect on the next comment.

Does Repli delete spam comments too?

Comment Guard AI can hide or delete spam and abusive comments automatically. That feature is available on Pro+ and above.
