Why creators want comment → DM
Built for creators, coaches, and shops who need the link in the inbox — not buried in bio.
I used to miss “link?” comments until hours later. Comment to DM means the offer hits their inbox while they still care.
Contact overages after a viral Reel were the breaking point. Flat DM pricing keeps Instagram auto DM predictable.
Comments without a DM are lost leads. A tracked link in the chat beats hoping they find bio later.

Stop Letting it Leak Revenue
Most Instagram accounts do not have a traffic problem. They have a conversion gap: people raise their hand in comments, then never get the link in time.
COLD LEADS
Comments go cold
The problem
Someone comments “link” or your keyword, then scrolls on. Manual DMs hours later usually miss the moment.
HitDM solution
HitDM sends the Instagram auto DM as soon as the keyword matches.
BIO FRICTION
Link-in-bio friction
The problem
Exit Reel → profile → bio → hunt the right URL. Each tap drops people who already raised their hand.
HitDM solution
Comment to DM puts the exact tracked link in their inbox.
BILL SHOCK
Contact-bill surprises
The problem
ManyChat-style contact meters can spike after one viral post, even when you only needed comment→DM.
HitDM solution
HitDM meters Free and Pro by DMs you send — flat tiers, no contact overages.
Comments without a DM are lost leads. Comment to DM puts the tracked link in their inbox while they still care — a cleaner ManyChat alternative for Instagram-only teams.

Hit their DM
HitDM sends your tracked link (and optional lead ask) the moment they comment.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Comment to DM, Meta's API, pricing, and how HitDM compares as a flat ManyChat alternative.
What is Instagram auto DM / comment to DM?
When someone comments a keyword on your post or Reel, an app sends a private Instagram DM with your link (and optional lead ask). HitDM does that on Meta's official API.
How do I automate a DM when someone comments on Instagram?
Connect a Business or Creator account, pick a post or Reel, set a keyword, and write the DM. HitDM watches comments and hits their inbox with your message and tracked link.
Is Instagram DM automation allowed?
Yes, when you use Meta's official Messaging API through an approved app. Browser bots and password tools can violate Instagram's rules. HitDM is built for the official API path.
What is a free ManyChat alternative for Instagram?
HitDM is a flat-priced comment to DM tool with a usable free DM allowance — not ManyChat's contact-based billing.
How much does Instagram DM automation cost?
Indie tools often run a free tier plus about $9–$29/mo. ManyChat bills by contacts. HitDM is flat Free + Pro with a clear free DM cap (see Pricing).
Can I collect emails or phone numbers in Instagram DMs?
Yes on Pro. After the first DM, ask for email or phone inside the chat and store leads for follow-up.
Do story reply automations work?
Same idea as comment to DM, for story replies. Story triggers ship after day-1 comment→DM — listed as Later in Key Features.
Do I need a Creator or Business Instagram account?
Yes. Meta's API needs a Professional account linked to a Facebook Page. Personal accounts cannot run official comment-to-DM apps.
Will automated DMs get my account banned?
Risk is much lower on Meta's official API than with unofficial bots. Follow messaging limits, avoid spammy copy, and use keyword opt-in comments.
How is HitDM different from ManyChat, LinkDM, and Reachlee?
HitDM focuses on comment→DM + tracked link + optional lead capture with flat DM pricing. ManyChat is multi-channel and contact-priced; LinkDM and Reachlee are peers in the same job.
Is there a free plan with real DMs (not 25 contacts)?
Yes. Free is measured in DMs you can send, not active contacts. The exact allowance is in Pricing.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Cancel from billing. You keep access until the end of the period you paid for.
