Where LinkDM fits.
LinkDM automates Instagram and Facebook DMs on plans set by a monthly DM limit.
A large free allowance
The free plan includes 1,000 DMs a month on one Instagram account.
High paid limits
Pro includes 25,000 DMs a month, and Platinum+ at $99 a month includes 300,000 on 10 accounts.
Facebook DMs too
The free plan lists Facebook DM automations alongside Instagram.
Start with one Instagram reply.
If your immediate job is responding to Instagram comments asking for a guide, link or offer, test that workflow in HyperDM. LinkDM may be the better fit when your main need is sending a high volume of links at a fixed monthly limit.
Use HyperDM’s visual flow builder for fixed steps and, from Growth, its AI Step for optional question handling. Add reviewed business knowledge for the optional assistant, test its answers, and enable human review for uncertainty. AI can make mistakes; a successful import is not factual approval.
Instagram is available today. WhatsApp, TikTok and store chat are coming soon. Abandoned-cart recovery is not offered. HyperDM bills conversations handled, not stored followers or sales. Compare actual activity and required features.
