Features
Every tool between a comment and a conversion.
What each commentfor feature actually does — all of it on Meta's official Instagram API.
Keyword-triggered auto-DMs
Attach an automation to any post, reel, or story. When a comment or story reply contains your keyword — "LINK", "GUIDE", anything you choose — commentfor sends that person a private DM with your message and link, within seconds. Each campaign has its own keyword, message, and destination, so a giveaway, a lead magnet, and a product drop can run side by side without interfering.
DM templates
Write reusable message templates once and prefill any new automation with them. commentfor ships with starter presets for the common plays — link delivery, lead magnet, waitlist, discount, and content upgrade — that you can adapt to your voice.
Tracked links & analytics
Every link you deliver goes out as a tracked short link. The dashboard shows clicks and click-through rate per campaign, so you can see which post, keyword, and message actually convert — from your own data, not guesses.
Public comment auto-reply
Optionally reply publicly under the triggering comment ("Sent you a DM! 📬"). The public thread shows everyone else the keyword works, which keeps new comments — and new DMs — coming.
Follow-gate
Ask people to follow you before the link is delivered. commentfor checks whether the commenter follows your account; if not, the DM politely asks them to follow first and delivers the link right after. Link requests become followers instead of drive-by clicks.
Email gate & lead capture
Turn the DM conversation into a lead form. With the email gate on, the first DM asks for an email address before the link is sent; when the person replies with one, commentfor captures it, delivers the real link, and adds the lead to your dashboard. Captured emails are stored encrypted, exportable as CSV, and — if you connect Kit or Flodesk — forwarded to your email platform automatically. Gates can be chained: follow first, then email, then link.
DM flows & sequences
One comment can start a sequence, not just a single message: deliver the link now, follow up later with a reminder or a next step. Flows are quota-aware and capped, so sequences never run away from you.
Story triggers
Automations aren't limited to feed posts — story replies and story @mentions can trigger DMs too, so "reply to this story" and shout-out campaigns deliver links just like comments do.
Multi-account support
Run campaigns across several Instagram accounts from one dashboard — built for agencies and brands managing more than one presence. Available on Pro.
Rewind
Attach an automation to a post that's already blowing up, and Rewind messages the people who commented before you created it — inside Instagram's 7-day private-reply window, one reply per comment, exactly as the platform allows.
Rate-limit-safe sending
commentfor paces every send safely under Instagram's official platform limit of 750 private replies per hour, queues bursts instead of dropping them, and retries transient failures. Big comment spikes get handled; your account never gets flagged for blasting.
Security by default
You connect through Meta's official business login — commentfor never sees your Instagram password. Access tokens and captured lead emails are encrypted at rest, and everything the platform does happens through the official Instagram Platform API. Read more in our Privacy Policy.
