02:07 AMInstagram comment-to-DM automation

Your reel blew up at 2 a.m. You were asleep. okan wasn’t.

okan is Instagram comment-to-DM automation for creators. When someone comments a keyword on your post or reel, it replies to them in public, sends a DM with your product, takes the payment over UPI or card, and gets them the file.

  • Official Instagram API
  • No Facebook Page needed

Why creators lose sales in their Instagram comments

Typical buying comments: price, link please, how much, DM me, is this still available.

Every one of those comments is someone holding their phone, ready to pay — for about as long as it takes to scroll to the next reel.

  • 01

    You were asleep

    Reels travel while you’re offline. The comments arrive at 2 a.m.; your replies arrive at ten.

  • 02

    Interest cools fast

    Someone asking the price now has scrolled on a minute later. A reply hours afterwards reaches a person who has moved on.

  • 03

    Nobody can answer hundreds

    A reel that works brings more questions than one person can answer by hand, and every one you miss is a buyer who never got the link.

How Instagram comment-to-DM automation works

Set it up once for a post, or for every post you publish. This is what your buyer sees.

  1. 02:08 AM · Step 01

    They comment

    Someone comments your keyword — “price”, “link”, whatever you choose — on a post or reel. okan picks it up the moment Instagram passes it on.

  2. 02:08 AM · Step 02

    You reply twice: in public and in their DMs

    A reply under their comment, so everyone scrolling sees you answered, and a direct message with your product and a Buy button.

  3. 02:10 AM · Step 03

    They pay with UPI or card

    Buy opens Razorpay’s secure checkout: UPI or card. No website, no link in bio.

  4. 02:11 AM · Step 04

    They get the file

    They tap “Payment done” and the download link arrives in the same chat. Free products skip the payment and send the link straight away.

Ten minutes, once

Set it up in about ten minutes

Three steps, then it runs on every matching comment.

  1. 1

    Connect Instagram

    Sign in with Instagram. You need a Business or Creator account, and no Facebook Page.

  2. 2

    Add your product

    Upload a PDF of up to 25 MB and set a price, or make it free as a lead magnet.

  3. 3

    Create an automation

    Choose the posts and keywords, then write the public reply and the DM. That’s it.

  • Every post, or just the ones you pick
  • Any comment, or only your keywords
  • Free downloads or paid products
  • Ask them to follow you first
  • Several Instagram accounts on Pro
  • A log of every comment it handled

Peace of mind

Is Instagram DM automation safe?

okan works through Meta’s official Instagram API: the route Instagram provides for businesses to reply to comments and messages. It is not a bot that logs in with your password.

  • Only people who commented

    It replies to comments on your own posts, and messages only the people who left them.

  • Exactly what you wrote

    The public reply and the DM are the words you set, sent as written.

  • Pause any time

    Switch an automation off and it stops at once. Your posts and followers are untouched.

  • No password shared

    You connect with Instagram Login and can disconnect whenever you like.

Questions

What creators ask first

Do I need a Facebook Page?
No. okan connects through Instagram Login. You need an Instagram Business or Creator account, which you can switch to for free in Instagram’s settings.
Is it allowed by Instagram?
okan uses Meta’s official Instagram API. It never asks for your password or logs in as you, and it only messages people who commented on your own posts.
How do buyers pay?
The Buy button in the DM opens a Razorpay checkout. Buyers can pay with UPI or any major card.
When do I get the money?
Buyers pay okan through Razorpay, and every order shows what was paid, the fees and your share. Ask for a settlement whenever you like: it is paid out within 72 hours on Free and within 24 hours on Pro.
What can I sell?
PDFs up to 25 MB: guides, ebooks, planners, workbooks, diet plans. Selling presets, LUTs or templates? Put the download link in a one-page PDF and sell that. You can also give a PDF away for free.
What does it cost?
The Free plan costs nothing each month; okan takes a small fee on each sale, lower on Pro, and Razorpay charges its own processing fee. Current numbers are on the pricing page.

Your next reel is going to do numbers.

Decide tonight whether those comments become orders, or notifications you clear on Sunday.
