Classify Instagram DMs and alert you to urgent messages

Every Instagram comment and DM gets read by AI, logged, and flagged by email the moment it's urgent.

How the work actually flows

It branches. Exactly one path is taken.

The problem it solves

As your Instagram following grows, comments and DMs pile up faster than you can read them, and a real brand deal or urgent question can get buried under routine messages. Missing the important ones costs you opportunities.

Who it fits

Instagram creators managing a growing inbox of comments and DMs on their own.

How it works

  1. A new comment or DM arrives on Instagram
  2. AI reads the message and rates its urgency and risk
  3. Every message is logged to a Google Sheet for tracking
  4. High-priority messages, like brand deals, trigger an instant Gmail alert
  5. You get notified only when something actually needs your attention
What you get

Urgent messages flagged the moment they arrive

You get a clear alert the moment a comment or DM actually needs your attention, with everything else logged for reference.

What you get

A logged inbox history and instant email alerts for the messages that matter.

What you need

An Instagram inbox event source, a Gmail account, a Google Sheets account, 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.
