ScaleDM empowers creators, brands, and developers to automate Comment-to-DM, grow followers with Ask-for-Follow gating, capture verified leads via Ask-for-Contact, and plug autonomous AI Agents directly into Instagram Direct — 100% compliant with official Meta APIs.
ScaleDM automates the complete Instagram engagement loop. When viewers comment on your content, ScaleDM triggers an instant public algorithm reply and delivers a personalized direct message with your link or lead capture in under 2 seconds.
ScaleDM instantly replies to the commenter publicly (e.g. "Sent to your DMs! 🚀"), skyrocketing comment count and signaling to the Instagram algorithm to push your Reel to the Explore page.
Your follower receives an automated, beautifully formatted Instagram Direct Message with rich cards, buttons, and direct checkout links while their buyer intent is at its peak.
Collect verified emails and phone numbers directly inside Instagram DM without forcing visitors to navigate away to slow external "link in bio" landing pages.
Click any scenario or quick prompt below to watch the live simulation in real time.
When someone comments a trigger word (e.g., "PLAYBOOK"), ScaleDM immediately replies publicly and delivers a personalized DM.
Checks if commenter is a follower. If not, prompts them to tap Follow on @scaledm.io before unlocking the reward.
Collects verified emails and phone numbers inside chat, then syncs instantly to your CRM or webhook.
Hands off complex customer queries to Claude, OpenAI, or LangChain agents via MCP protocol with full context.
No complicated code, no risky browser extensions. Set up official Instagram automation in four simple steps.
Log in with your official Facebook/Instagram account in 30 seconds. Passwords are never requested or stored.
Specify trigger keywords on Posts, Reels, or Live streams (e.g., "PRICE", "PLAYBOOK", "INFO").
Toggle Ask-for-Follow to verify follower status, and Ask-for-Contact to capture verified emails into your CRM.
Optionally link your Claude, OpenAI, or LangChain agent via our official Model Context Protocol (MCP) server.
ScaleDM combines the safety and reliability of Meta's official API with cutting-edge automation and autonomous AI infrastructure.
Instantly turn comments on Posts, Reels, Carousels, and Live streams into high-converting 1-on-1 direct message conversations.
Turn viral traffic into permanent followers. ScaleDM queries the official Meta API to verify follow status before sending valuable links.
Collect qualified emails, phone numbers, and company names directly in Instagram Direct Messages without sending users to a slow external landing page.
Connect your autonomous agents (Claude, OpenAI, LangChain, AutoGen) via the Model Context Protocol (MCP) or webhooks.
Sleep soundly knowing your account is 100% safe. ScaleDM operates strictly through official approved Meta endpoints.
Track open rates, click-throughs, follower conversions, and lead captures across every individual post and automation rule.
ScaleDM supports every Instagram automation feature you need to grow—Reels, Feed Posts, Story Mentions, Live Streams, and Direct Inbox Icebreakers—all powered by official Meta APIs.
Automatically detect when followers tag your handle in their Instagram Stories. Instantly send a personalized thank you DM containing VIP coupon codes, transforming social proof into sales.
When you host an Instagram Live, viewers can comment keyword triggers (e.g. "BONUS") to receive product links and resources in their DM inbox without leaving your broadcast.
Natural conversational data extraction validates emails, phone numbers, and company names with real-time syntax checking, automatically updating your CRM and email marketing lists.
From viral creators to enterprise growth teams, ScaleDM drives measurable outcomes across industries.
Gate digital courses, presets, and playbooks behind follow checks and email captures. Turn casual viewers into your highest-value newsletter subscribers.
Deliver personalized discounts when shoppers comment on new drops. Provide automated sizing advice and cart recovery straight in DMs.
Qualify inbound buyer intent, gather company domain names, and automatically share calendar booking links without human delay.
Connect your custom LangChain or Claude agents to Instagram via standardized Model Context Protocol (MCP) server endpoints in minutes.
ManyChat forces you into brittle, rigid if/else trees that break when a user replies outside the script. ScaleDM pairs an intuitive drag-and-drop workflow canvas with true AI reasoning and official Meta API follower verification.
Easily map triggers, automated delays, conditional branches, and rich DM responses on an infinite canvas with zero coding required.
Branch paths conditionally based on live Meta Graph API follower status: deliver instant VIP rewards to existing followers, or politely prompt non-followers to hit Follow first.
Instead of rigid dead-end buttons, hand off open-ended product questions to autonomous LLMs (Claude, GPT-4o, LangChain) via our official Model Context Protocol (MCP) connector.
Traditional chat tools force you into rigid, clunky decision trees. ScaleDM gives your LLM agents full agency over Instagram conversations with standardized tools, memory, and guardrails.
Plug into Claude Desktop, Cursor, OpenAI Swarm, or LangChain using our standardized MCP endpoint at https://scaledm.io/mcp.
Agents can inspect post metrics, check follow status, dispatch links, register leads, or escalate to a human agent.
Set strict rate limits, approved tool scopes, and sentiment thresholds to keep brand interactions safe.

ScaleDM supports all Instagram Professional accounts (both Business and Creator accounts) connected to a Facebook Page, as required by Meta's Graph API.
ScaleDM supports all the Instagram features ManyChat does (Reel comments, Story mentions, Live chat, and Flow builder), but is built specifically for the AI Agent era. While ManyChat forces you into rigid if/else button trees and charges punishing monthly fees for inactive stored contacts, ScaleDM provides autonomous LLM reasoning (Claude & GPT-4o via MCP), official Meta follow verification, conversational lead extraction, and transparent usage pricing.
