Comment to DM automation, no keywords needed
How it works
Say what the post shares
A name, the link and the first DM. Pick the posts it runs on, all your posts, or the next post you publish.
MintSense reads each comment
"Can I get the plan?", "link pls" and "¿me lo mandas?" all count as asking. Exact words are optional.
The link arrives in their DMs
One private reply per person per post, paced so your account stays safe. Add public replies if you like; they rotate so they don’t all read the same.
Instagram auto DM from comments
Who gets the DM, and who doesn’t
People asking for it
Spam never gets your link
Not someone who asked already

Frequently asked questions
What is comment to DM?
Comment to DM sends a private message to someone who comments on your post. You say what a post shares, like a free guide and its link, and everyone who asks for it in the comments gets it in their DMs. Links in Instagram comments are not tappable, so a DM is how the link reaches them.
Do I need a keyword like "LINK" or "GUIDE"?
No. MintSense reads each comment and sends the DM when the person is asking for what the post shares, in any wording or language. You can still add exact words if your caption asks people to comment one, and you can choose to send to everyone who comments instead.
How do I set up comment to DM on Instagram?
Connect your Instagram professional account, then in ReplyMint add what a post shares: a name, the link and the first DM. Choose the posts it runs on: picked posts, all your posts, or the next post you publish. Turn it on and it starts with the next comment.
Does comment to DM work on Facebook?
Yes. It works on Instagram and Facebook Page posts, using each platform's private reply to a comment. TikTok and LinkedIn are not supported.
Can people who commented before I turned it on get the DM?
Yes, within Meta's limit. Turn on "Send to people who already asked" and ReplyMint reads the last 7 days of comments on those posts and sends the DM to the people who asked for it. Meta allows a private reply up to 7 days after a comment.
What are Meta's rules for comment to DM?
Meta allows one private reply per comment, sent within 7 days of the comment. After that, you can message again only once the person replies, within 24 hours of their reply. If they don't follow you, the first DM lands in their message requests. ReplyMint sends through Meta's official API and stays within these limits.
Will DM automation get my account restricted?
Accounts that blast DMs can be restricted. ReplyMint paces sends to at most 20 a minute and 150 an hour per account, sends one DM per person per post, and the rest wait their turn. Someone who asks twice gets a short public reply saying the link is already in their DMs instead of a second DM.
What happens when someone replies to the DM?
The conversation carries on in ReplyMint. MintSense can answer their questions in your voice, or hold the reply for you, depending on your Autopilot settings. Real questions in the comments still get real answers, not the link.
Is there a free comment to DM tool?
Comment to DM is included on every ReplyMint plan, including Free. Each comment you receive counts as one message toward your plan's monthly limit; the DM ReplyMint sends doesn't count. The Free plan includes 200 messages a month with no card.
