Comment → DM
Someone comments a keyword (or any word) under your post and instantly gets your link in their DMs. Plus a friendly public reply under their comment.
Upload a Reel once and it publishes at your best time. Every comment turns into a DM, a new follower and an email on your list. One tool instead of ManyChat + Buffer.
A Reel takes off, 400 people comment, and you spend the evening copy‑pasting the same link. Meanwhile your next post goes out whenever you remember.
Pick a template, write your message, flip it LIVE. Six ready‑made automations cover every way people reach you on Instagram.

Yes. PlanReply only uses the official Meta API (Instagram API with Instagram Login). We respect Meta’s rate limits, never use bots or scraping, and never ask for your password.
On top of that, each person goes through an automation at most once every 90 days, and reminders are only sent inside Meta’s 24‑hour messaging window.
No. For Instagram you only need an Instagram professional account (Creator or Business). Switching is free in the Instagram app settings. No Facebook Page required.
We’re opening access in waves, starting with people on the waitlist. Leave your email and we’ll send you one message when your spot is ready. No spam.
ManyChat does DM automations and Buffer does scheduling. PlanReply does both in one place, for a single price, and shows which Reel brings the most followers and emails.
Trigger on any word or specific keywords, on all posts or only the posts you pick. Reply publicly under the comment, send a DM with a button, require a follow first (with a real follow check), ask for an email, and deliver a link card with an image and button.
They’re checked (fake, disposable and typo emails are rejected), sent to your email list, and you can export all of them as a CSV any time.
Yes. Anyone can reply STOP to unsubscribe and PlanReply won’t message them again.
Free covers up to 100 new contacts per month. If you grow past that, Pro gives you unlimited contacts for $19/month.
Instagram first. Facebook Page Messenger and comments are coming soon, TikTok later.
Join the waitlist and get PlanReply before everyone else. Free plan included.
