Built for brands selling through Reels and Direct

Instagram Direct Chatbot

In volbor, reps don't get trapped in chat while you create content. Reel comments, Story reactions, and inbound DMs trigger a single automated flow—delivering replies in seconds.

Why manual replies crush conversion rates

Reels go viral.Your team can't keep up.

When a Reel explodes, comments and DMs turn into an avalanche. Human teams physically can't respond in seconds—and buyers cool off along with the hype.

  • Buying intent dies in 4 hours

    Viewers want promo codes right now while scrolling. Delay, and they buy from a competitor.

  • 80% repetitive busywork

    Copy-pasting identical catalog links and typing "how much is this?" all day long.

  • Leads leak from comments

    Unattended "price?" comments get poached by scammers or competing accounts.

  • Inquiries drown in Meta Business Suite

    Direct chats remain isolated outside your core sales pipeline.

  • Shadowban risks

    Copy-pasting identical links manually or using unauthorized grey scripts triggers Meta penalties.

Direct sales architecture

A single flow.From comment to closed deal.

Official Meta Instagram Graph API: engage customers within seconds of any content touchpoint.

  1. Comment-to-DM

    Keywords in Reels unlock Direct conversations

    CATALOG, GUIDE, or COUPON—a public reply for algorithm boost plus a private DM with materials. The 24-hour messaging window opens immediately.

  2. Story Mentions

    Turn Story mentions into closed sales

    A profile tag or emoji reaction triggers the bot to say thanks, award loyalty points, or gift an exclusive promo code.

  3. Qualification

    In-chat quizzes capture verified lead profiles

    Service type, size, location, or budget—leads tap inline buttons while the system builds a 360° profile.

  4. Catalog

    Product cards right inside the chat

    Photos, descriptions, pricing, and checkout buttons. Catalogs sync from your store database via REST API.

  5. Unified Inbox

    Seamless handoff for high-touch inquiries

    Wholesale deals or custom requests route directly to live reps with complete chat history, source post tags, and quiz answers.

Frequently asked questions

Meta policies.Clear rules, zero spam.

Can we automatically message users who merely viewed our Reels?

No. Meta platform policies strictly prohibit unsolicited cold messaging. Outbound Direct messages can only trigger following an explicit user action: a comment, Story mention/reaction, or direct message.

Does the chatbot work with personal Instagram profiles?

No. To connect automation, your account must be set up as an Instagram Professional Business or Creator account.

Can a live human agent intervene in an automated conversation?

Yes. Agents can take over any conversation at any moment inside the Unified Inbox. As soon as a team member sends a manual message, the bot automatically pauses.

Can the bot send videos and voice messages?

Yes. volbor flows support sending high-resolution images, PDF files, video clips, and pre-recorded voice notes.

How does the bot push orders into our backend systems?

Customer contacts, chosen SKUs, and custom parameters sync in real time via Webhooks and REST APIs into your CRM and inventory management tools.

What happens if a user makes a typo in a trigger keyword?

Built-in fuzzy keyword matching detects common typos and misspelling variations, ensuring the funnel triggers reliably.
