Yes. Any emoji reaction or text reply to your Story can trigger an automated DM. CreatorFlow detects both single emojis like fire or heart and written responses. You can set different reply messages for different reaction types, so a fire emoji sends one response while a question triggers another.
Yes. CreatorFlow delivers links, discount codes, booking pages, or any URL automatically when someone reacts to your Story. The message arrives within seconds of the reaction, so followers receive your offer while they are still engaged. You can include buttons with custom text for a cleaner presentation.
No. Automated messages appear as standard Instagram DMs, identical to ones you would send manually. There is no "sent by bot" label or visual indicator. You write the message text yourself, so it matches your tone and voice. Followers experience a fast, personal response they cannot distinguish from a manual reply.
Yes. Each Story can have its own automation with a unique DM response. If you post a product Story, the auto-reply sends the product link. If you post a Q&A Story, it sends your FAQ or booking page. This lets you match the response to the content your followers are reacting to.
Fully safe. CreatorFlow connects through Meta's official Graph API using OAuth authentication. You never share your Instagram password. Meta reviews the integration regularly to ensure compliance. Automated Story replies follow the same rules as manual DMs, so your account faces no elevated risk.
Yes — CreatorFlow can detect when someone mentions you in their Story and trigger an automated DM response. This is perfect for thanking fans who share your content, sending them exclusive offers, or starting a conversation with new potential followers who are already engaged with your brand.
Yes, you can set up keyword filters to only respond to specific words, phrases, or emojis. For example, only auto-reply when someone says "link", "price", or sends a fire emoji, while ignoring generic replies like "nice" or "cool". This keeps your automation targeted and relevant.
The ideal Story reply DM is 1-3 sentences: a brief acknowledgment followed by your link or offer. Short, conversational messages perform best because they feel personal and display well on mobile, where most Instagram DMs are read. Longer messages can reduce click-through rates. CreatorFlow's templates are optimized for this format.
Yes — you can set automations to only run during specific hours or days. This is useful if you want to match your business hours, run limited-time promotions, or pause automations during weekends. You can also set different messages for different time periods.
Up to 4,800 Story replies per day, based on Instagram's API limit of 200 DMs per hour. CreatorFlow processes replies in real-time as they arrive, so each follower receives a response within seconds. This capacity handles even viral Stories with thousands of reactions without any backlog.
