CommentKeyword turns Instagram comments into leads. You set a keyword. When a person comments that keyword under one of your posts, the tool replies to the comment on your behalf and sends them a DM right away. You write both messages once, and the automation keeps working on every post you publish.
Setup takes about five minutes. Connect your Instagram business account through Meta's official Instagram Business API, choose a keyword, and write your DM template. There is no flow builder to learn, no canvas to arrange, and no nodes to wire together. If you have ever opened a visual automation editor and closed it again, this will feel different.
The connection is compliant. CommentKeyword runs on the official API, never scrapes, and applies automatic rate limiting so your account stays inside Meta's rules.
The AI part is optional. Switch it on and the first DM grows into a conversation. The assistant answers follow-up questions, asks qualifying ones, and hands the person to you when a question needs a human. The AI Setup Assistant makes starting easy: describe your agent in plain English and it drafts the hook, the instructions, the objective, and the handoff rules for you to review and edit.
Pricing is the sharpest difference. Tools like ManyChat bill by contact count, so the bill follows the size of your list rather than the work the tool does. A quiet list still c same as an active one, and keeping costs down turns into list hygiene work: pruning contacts, archiving inactive people, and watching which tier your count lands in this month. CommentKeyword bills per automated DM sent. You pay when the tool actually replies and actually messages someone. For most accounts that works out 60 to 80 percent cheaper than contact-based plans, and a slow month simply costs less than a busy one.
The free plan includes 300 automated DMs per month and 3 keywords, with no credit card required. That is enough to test a launch prompt on a real post before paying anything. Paid plans start at Starter for 12 dollars a month with AI included, then Pro at 29, Growth at 59, and Scale at 99 as volume grows.
Who uses it: creators who sell from their comments, shops that run prompts like comment LINK to get the product in a DM, coaches and agencies qualifying leads in DMs, and anyone tired of hand-replying to info please comments all day.
