Is Instagram DM automation safe?

Yes. Sellinger uses the official Instagram Graph API and Messenger API for Instagram, fully compliant with Meta's platform policies. We enforce conservative rate limits, randomized delays, and natural engagement patterns so your account stays in good standing. No browser extensions, no scraping — just API-compliant automation.

How many DMs can the agent send per day?

Sellinger starts with conservative limits — typically 20–40 DMs per day for new accounts — and gradually increases volume over a 2–3 week warm-up period. Exact limits depend on your account age, follower count, and engagement history. This warm-up approach mirrors natural behavior and keeps your account safe.

Does it work with Business and Creator accounts?

Yes, Sellinger supports both Instagram Business and Creator accounts. Both account types have access to the Messenger API for Instagram, which enables automated DM conversations. Personal accounts are not supported as they lack API access.

Can it respond to story mentions automatically?

Absolutely. When someone mentions you in their story, the AI sends a contextual, on-brand reply within minutes. It analyzes the story content, the mentioner's profile, and your relationship history to craft a response that feels genuine — turning casual mentions into real conversations.

How does it avoid looking like spam?

Sellinger takes an engagement-first approach. Before sending any DM, the AI engages with a prospect's content — liking posts, replying to stories, leaving thoughtful comments. By the time a DM arrives, there's already a warm touchpoint. Combined with deep personalization based on profile analysis, every message feels intentional, not mass-blasted.

What content does the AI engage with?

The AI strategically engages with posts, stories, and Reels based on relevance to your product and the prospect's interests. It likes posts, leaves substantive comments that add value, replies to stories with contextual messages, and monitors new content for engagement opportunities — all calibrated to build genuine rapport.

Can I approve messages before they're sent?

Yes. Sellinger offers a human-in-the-loop approval mode where every DM and comment is queued for your review before sending. Most teams start with approval mode enabled and switch to fully autonomous once they're confident in the AI's tone and quality — typically within the first week.

How does it integrate with other Sellinger channels?

All Instagram conversations appear in your unified Sellinger inbox alongside LinkedIn, email, WhatsApp, and other channels. If a prospect was contacted on LinkedIn first, the Instagram agent has full context of that conversation. Cross-channel signals help the AI decide the best moment and channel for every touchpoint.
