The problem it solves

Your Instagram inbox fills up with questions and leads faster than you can answer them. By the time you get to a message, the person has often already moved on to a competitor.

Who it fits

Marketers, business owners, or content creators who get frequent Instagram DMs and can't reply to all of them right away.

How it works

  1. A new Instagram DM arrives
  2. The message is sent to OpenAI's GPT
  3. GPT drafts a natural, on-brand reply
  4. The reply is sent back to the customer instantly
What you get

DMs answered before a customer gives up and leaves

Every Instagram DM gets a natural, on-brand reply within seconds, any time of day, so no one is left waiting.

What you get

An instant, AI-written reply sent directly to the customer's Instagram DM.

What you need

A ManyChat account connected to your Instagram profile and an OpenAI API key.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
