Where Spur fits.
Spur is an AI agent and automation platform for WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook, email and live chat, with a shared team inbox.
A shared inbox
Teams work conversations from every channel in one inbox.
AI agents with actions
Its agents can handle tasks such as order tracking and triggering flows.
A Meta Tech Provider
Its pricing page says Spur is an official Meta Tech Provider.
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. Spur may be the better fit when your team runs WhatsApp, Instagram and live chat from one inbox.
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.
