Instagram Auto-DM

Turn every comment into a conversation.

  • Comment a keyword, get the link in a minute
  • Story replies and DMs can start it too
  • A public reply so everyone sees it works
  • Every click counted on a short link
  • Your own link domain on Pro and Studio
  • Sends that read as human, account kept safe
01 · Set it up

Five things that start a DM.

  • Comments, story replies, DMs, reactions. A keyword on a post, any reply to a story, a keyword in your inbox, or a reaction to one of your DMs. Each automation pairs one trigger with one message.

  • Or a public reply. The fifth trigger answers a matching comment out loud instead, starting with the commenter's username.

  • Choose which posts. One specific post, your next post, or every new post. Eden keeps your newest posts armed and retires old ones.

02 · It runs itself

An answer machine that doesn't sound like one.

  • A short natural delay. DMs go out 20 to 60 seconds after the trigger, not instantly. Nobody gets the same automation twice in seven days, and public replies are capped per day.

  • One list, everything on it. The studio is a list of your automations with a status pill and the numbers: clicks, replies, sends. Open one to pause, edit, or delete it.

  • It never stalls silently. Out of credits, it pauses and shows why, then resumes on its own once credits refill. Turn on auto-refresh and it never pauses at all.

Questions, answered

The parts people ask about before they turn it on.

How fast does the DM go out?

Usually within a minute. Messages send after a short natural delay of 20 to 60 seconds rather than instantly, which reads as human and keeps your account clear of spam flags. A very viral post may deliver over a longer window, because Instagram limits how many DMs an account can send per hour.

What can start a DM?

Five triggers. Someone comments a keyword on your post, replies to any of your stories, sends you a DM with a keyword, or reacts to one of your DMs. The fifth posts a public reply to a matching comment instead of a DM.

What does it cost?

Auto-DM is included on Pro and Studio plans. Each DM an automation actually sends costs 1 credit. Creating automations, watching posts, and public comment replies are free. If your workspace runs out of credits your automations pause and resume on their own once credits refill.

Can I see who clicked my link?

You see the numbers, not the people. Each automation card shows how many clicks the link got, along with sends and replies. Individual recipients are never identified.

Will someone get the same DM over and over?

No. The same person will not receive the same automation's DM twice within seven days, no matter how many times they comment.

Which posts does a comment automation watch?

You choose: one specific post, your next post, or every new post. With every new post, Eden keeps your most recent posts armed and retires the oldest ones as new posts come in, since old posts get almost no new comments.

Can links use my own domain?

Yes, on Pro and Studio. Tracked links use edn.so by default. Connect a subdomain you own, like go.yourbrand.com, add one DNS record, and new tracked links carry your brand with a link reputation that's yours.

Which platforms does it work on?

Instagram today. Auto-DM runs on the Instagram account you connect in Eden, and you may be asked to reconnect once so messaging permissions are granted.
