Auto-DM everyone who comments a keyword on your Instagram post

Prompt template

Every hour, read the comments on post. For each person who wrote keyword, follow them, send them message, and reply to their comment "Sent! Check your DMs". Skip anyone you already messaged.

Overview

"Comment GUIDE and I'll send it to you" is how creators and brands turn a post into leads. It works because commenting is easy and the comments push the post to more people. The catch is the follow-up: someone has to find every comment with the keyword and send each person the same message, fast, before they lose interest.

Why it's hard

Instagram has no built-in comment-to-DM. The usual answer is a separate tool connected to Meta's API, with its own account, its own flows to build and a monthly plan. And the comment is only the start: the person often needs a follow before a DM can reach them, and a public reply so the next reader knows it works.

How Reduck does it

Your AI agent does it in your own logged-in Instagram, the same session you already use. It reads the comments under your post, keeps the ones with your keyword, follows each of those people, sends them your message, and answers their comment in public. Run it every hour and it handles only the new comments, skipping anyone it already messaged.

What your agent does

  1. Read the comments on your post or Reel, with who wrote each one
  2. Keep the comments that contain your keyword, typos included
  3. Follow each of those people, so a DM can reach them
  4. Send them your message, with a link or an image
  5. Reply to their comment in public, so others see it works

Who it's for

  • Creators giving away a guide, a template or a discount code
  • Coaches and consultants turning a post into booked calls
  • Brands and shops sending a product link to everyone who asks

FAQ

No. It runs in your own logged-in Instagram, in your browser, so there is no Meta app review, no Business account requirement and no new tool to sign up for.
Instagram shows the Message button only on profiles you can reach. Following the commenter first opens that door, so the DM goes through from your account.
It reads the comments Instagram shows on the post. Ask your agent to check the post every hour, and each pass picks up the new ones and skips the people it already messaged.
Yes. Tell your agent which keyword sends which link, for example GUIDE sends the PDF and PRICE sends your pricing page. It also understands a typo or a comment that asks for the thing without the exact word.
Following a private account sends a request. Your agent reports those people so you can message them once they accept.
Every action is a normal action in your own session, one at a time. Keep the pace human: a few DMs a minute, a first message without a link, and a public reply that tells people to check their requests.
