How it works

Three steps. Connect an account, build a campaign, and let it run.

Connect your account

Link your Instagram professional account once. No password sharing, no browser automation — just Instagram Login.

Build a campaign

Pick a post or reel, set the keywords to watch, write the public reply and the DM — with up to two tappable link buttons.

Deliver instantly

Webhooks catch comments the second they land, and a polling sweep catches the ones Instagram never pushes. Nothing is missed.

Everything you need

One focused workflow: keyword, post, reply, link, result.

Keyword matching

Match one or many keywords per post, whole-word or partial. LINK, SHOP, GUIDE, PRICE — you decide what triggers the DM.

Tracked links

Swap any link for a tracked redirect and see clicks and CTR per campaign — up to two link buttons per DM, each with its own stats.

Follow gate

Ask for a follow before the link is delivered, verified through Meta’s own follow status — and it always fails open, so real followers are never trapped.

Smart rate limiting

Stays under Meta’s documented cap of 750 private replies per hour, and queues the overflow instead of dropping it.

Workspaces & roles

Owner, admin, and member roles with invite links. Run several Instagram accounts under one roof — built for client work.

Full delivery logs

Every send, skip, and failure is logged with a reason. No black box — you always know what happened.

Questions, answered

Is this allowed by Instagram?

Yes. i8chat is built on Meta’s official Instagram private replies API. It never scrapes, never automates a browser, and never asks for your Instagram password — which keeps your account inside Meta’s rules.

Which Instagram accounts can I connect?

Business and Creator (professional) accounts. Personal accounts can’t receive Meta’s comment webhooks — switching takes about a minute in the Instagram app.

What happens if I hit Meta’s rate limit?

Nothing is lost. i8chat stays under Meta’s documented cap of 750 private replies per hour per account, and queues the overflow — every DM still goes out, just a little later.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Plans are month to month. Downgrade or cancel whenever you like and your campaigns simply pause — your data stays yours.
