HitDM

HitDM turns an Instagram comment keyword into one private DM with a tracked link. Creators, coaches, and small D2C brands use it when they want a lead handoff without running a full chatbot inbox.

You pick a keyword, write the DM once, and HitDM sends that message when someone comments the keyword on your post. Optional lead capture sits behind the tracked link. There is no live story reply product yet and HitDM does not post comments for you.

Compared with ManyChat-style builders, HitDM is intentionally narrow: comment → DM → link. Flat Pro pricing when you outgrow the free DM meter. Built for people who already ask for a keyword in captions and need the DM to land privately.

How a typical setup works: connect Instagram through Meta, create an automation with one keyword and one DM template, then go live on a post. When a follower comments the keyword, HitDM queues the private DM with your tracked link. You can see sends against a free monthly meter before upgrading to Pro.

Who it is for: English-speaking coaches and info-product sellers who already put a comment keyword in the caption; small D2C brands that want a list magnet without building flows in a heavy chatbot; agencies testing a single lead magnet before committing to a larger stack.

What HitDM is not: it is not a general Instagram inbox, not a live story-reply product on day one, and not a bot that posts comments under other people's posts. If you need multi-step conversations across Messenger, WhatsApp, and SMS, a broader tool fits better. If you only need comment keyword to one DM plus a tracked link, HitDM is the narrow job.

Honest positioning versus ManyChat: ManyChat is a multi-channel chatbot builder. HitDM is comment-to-DM for Instagram with tracking. Pricing stays flat on Pro instead of punishing simple keyword automations with complex seat or contact tiers. Start free, upgrade when the meter is not enough.

What problem it solves

Creators lose leads when commenters never open DMs or when a full chatbot is overkill for a single keyword offer.
