Instagram Story automation

Continue Instagram Story Interest in the DMs

Turn eligible story interactions into organized DM follow-up for launches, resources, registrations, and product interest.

Keep the response close to the story context and give people one useful next step instead of a generic message.

How it works

Connect a professional account. Authorize the Instagram Business or Creator profile used for the story.
Choose an eligible story trigger. Configure the interaction AP3K should listen for.
Prepare the DM. Answer the story context directly and add a destination only when needed.
Review conversations. Use Inbox and activity data to continue valuable responses manually.

Move story interest to a registration or waitlist page.

Send details when someone engages with launch content.

Deliver a guide or lesson related to the story people just saw.

Choose a clear trigger and deliver what your post promises. This tutorial shows how to build and publish the campaign in AP3K.

Each successfully sent public reply and each successfully sent DM counts as one automated action.
Available story triggers depend on the events and permissions Instagram exposes to the connected account.
