Sound familiar?

Your comments are full of buyers.
Most never hear back.

You post a Reel at 7 PM. By 10 PM there are 200 comments asking "price?", "link pls" and "how to join?". You reply to the first 40. Then dinner happens.

  • Buyers don't wait Reply an hour late and they've already messaged someone else or scrolled away.
  • Your phone owns your evenings Copy, paste, send. The same link, 200 times, every time you post.
  • Leads go cold after the DM Most tools send the link and stop. No follow-up, no shared inbox for your team, no idea who actually bought.

Put "Comment LINK" in your caption and Happilee DMs everyone who does, in seconds, even while you sleep. See how it works

How Instagram comment-to-DM automation works

From comment to customer in three steps and under three minutes. Keep scrolling to watch one happen.

Step 1 · Pick a keyword

Turn comments into conversations

Choose a keyword like LINK or PRICE, add the other ways your followers type it, or reply to every comment. Works on Reels, posts and stories.

Step 2 · Write your message

Your message, in your own voice

Write the DM once. Add your link as a button, and a follow-up for anyone who doesn't act on it.

Step 3 · Go live

Live in minutes. Working 24/7.

Matching comments get a DM within seconds, even at 3 a.m. On a viral post the rest queue and go out in order. Track every send from one dashboard.

Instagram automation for creators who'd rather create than reply.

Instagram auto DM, comment auto reply and story reply automation, on Reels, posts and stories.

Comment to DM

Keyword triggers that send DMs instantly

Auto reply to Instagram comments with a DM in seconds. Someone comments "LINK" on your Reel and Happilee sends them your link. Works on any post, with as many keywords as you like, or on every comment.

Does it reply to every comment?

Your choice. Pick Any Comment and everyone who comments on that post gets the DM. Or use keywords: one automation can hold several, like LINK, link pls and price, and capitals don't matter.

How fast is the DM?

Usually within seconds. Meta lets each account send up to 750 comment replies an hour, so if a post goes viral, Happilee queues the rest and sends them in order. Nobody is missed: even 2,000 comments are answered in under three hours.

Multiple keywords

Different keywords, different messages

"LINK" for your latest video. "PRICE" for your course. "FREE" for your lead magnet. Run 3 keyword automations on Free and as many as you like on any paid plan.

Can each post have its own keyword?

Yes. Pick specific posts for each flow, or run one keyword across every post.

What if two automations match?

Overlap detection catches it before a follower gets two DMs, on every plan.

Story automation

Auto reply to Instagram story replies and mentions

Someone mentions you or replies to your story? Auto-send your DM. No keyword needed. Capture every warm lead while the engagement is fresh.

Do stories need a keyword?

No. Story replies and mentions trigger the DM on their own.

Can I pause it?

Yes. Pause any story flow from your automations list whenever you like.

Analytics

See which keywords get the most DMs and clicks

Track which keywords drive the most DMs, which posts get the most link clicks, and where your leads come from. Make every automation smarter.

What can I track?

Comments, DMs sent, link clicks and replies, per keyword and per post.

Can I export it?

Yes. Pro exports your data for client or sponsor reports.

More than auto-replies.
A platform you won't outgrow.

Most Instagram automation tools stop at "keyword → send DM." Happilee keeps going.

An automated conversation is one automation firing for one person: they comment, Happilee sends one DM, and if they tap or reply, your link, follow-up and team hand-over all count as that same conversation. Every plan gets every automation feature; plans differ by volume, users and accounts. Contacts and manual replies are never capped, and automations are unlimited on paid plans. Prices exclude 18% GST. Pay monthly or annually by UPI, no contracts.

Questions about Instagram DM automation, answered.

Still curious? Start free and look around. Connecting Instagram takes about 3 minutes, and you can't break anything.

No. Happilee uses the official Instagram Graph API, the same one Meta built for businesses. We're a verified Meta Business Partner. No bots, no browser hacks, no password access.
Yes, but switching takes 30 seconds inside Instagram's settings. Personal accounts can't connect to Meta's API (this is Meta's rule, not ours). A Business or Creator account is free and unlocks insights too.
No. The DM comes from your account, in your words, with your link. The public reply under their comment, like "Sent you a DM 💌", is yours to edit too, so everything sounds like you.
It depends on the follower's own account, mainly whether it's public or private, so some DMs can land in Message Requests. Instagram decides this, not Happilee. Adding "check your DMs" to your caption helps people find it.
Sign up → connect your Instagram (through Meta's own login) → create your first keyword automation → go live. Most creators are sending their first DM within 3 minutes.
