1. Connect the right Instagram account

Guide
How to auto-reply to Instagram DMs without sharing your password
The safest setup for Instagram DM automation is to use an official Meta connection, start with simple repeated questions, and keep a clear handoff path for human replies.
2. List your repeated questions
Write down the questions customers ask every week: hours, location, price, booking, delivery, stock, and contact details.
3. Create approved answers
Keep answers short, accurate, and easy to update. Add escalation rules for refunds, complaints, sensitive requests, and complex orders.
4. Review performance
Track which replies get sent, which questions still need manual work, and where the knowledge base needs better answers.
Frequently asked questions
Can Instagram auto-replies run 24/7?
Yes, automation can answer eligible messages outside business hours when the rules or AI Agent are active.
Should every message be automated?
No. Good automation handles repeated questions and escalates conversations that need judgment, empathy, or manual action.
