Auto-DM, made simple.
Pick your keyword
Choose a word like RECIPE or LINK. We watch for it on any post you choose.
Sends in seconds
The DM goes out about 8 seconds after the comment. No app to keep open.
Every click tracked
See who opened your link and what they bought, all in one place.
Built for viral moments
Reel blows up at 3AM? Every commenter is queued and gets their DM — paced at a speed Instagram trusts. Nothing dropped.
Never looks like a bot
Add more than one wording and Creator Lane rotates them automatically. Same offer, same link — never the same message a thousand times.
Any language works
Keywords and DMs work in Hindi, Tamil, Hinglish — whatever your audience comments in. Set the keyword in the script they actually type.
Better together.
Good to know.
How does Instagram comment-to-DM automation work?
You pick a keyword — like RECIPE or LINK — and connect a post or reel. When someone comments that word, Creator Lane detects it through the official Instagram API and automatically sends them a direct message with your link. It runs 24/7, so you capture the lead even while you sleep.
How fast does the DM get sent after someone comments?
The DM goes out about 8 seconds after the comment is posted. Instagram requires a short delay before an automated reply can be sent, so messages land while the person is still on your post and most likely to tap through.
Is auto-DM allowed by Instagram and Meta?
Yes. Creator Lane sends messages through the official Instagram Graph API using the private-reply feature Meta built for exactly this. We never log into or automate your personal app, so your account stays compliant — no third-party password sharing, no unofficial bots.
Do I need a business or creator account to use it?
Yes. Instagram only allows messaging automation on Professional accounts — either Business or Creator — connected to a Facebook Page. Switching is free and takes a minute in your Instagram settings, and you keep all your followers and content.
Can I send the DM to people who do not follow me yet?
Yes. The trigger fires on the comment, not on the follow, so anyone who comments your keyword gets the message. If you want to grow followers first, pair it with Followgate to ask for a follow before the link is unlocked.
What happens when my reel goes viral?
Every comment goes into a queue and DMs are paced within Instagram's per-account limits. If Instagram asks us to slow down, the queue waits and retries automatically — nothing is dropped and nobody is skipped. You never have to babysit a viral post.
Will sending the same DM to everyone look like spam?
It can — which is why one automation can carry several wordings of the same message. Creator Lane rotates them automatically on every send: the offer and link stay identical, the wording varies, and you can see which version gets the most clicks.
Does it work in Hindi or other Indian languages?
Yes. Keywords and DMs work in any language — Hindi, Tamil, Bengali, Marathi, Hinglish, whatever your audience types. Set the keyword in the same script your audience comments in (for example दाम as well as PRICE) and write the DM however you like.
Is Creator Lane auto-DM really free?
Yes — the free plan lets you run keyword auto-DM with no credit card. You can start a campaign on your next reel in a couple of minutes and only move to a paid plan if you need higher limits or advanced features.
