Is Replyinger cheaper than CreatorFlow?
Yes. Pro is $9/month against CreatorFlow’s $15/month, or $12/month billed annually. Our Pro has no contact limit, where theirs covers 5,000 DMs a month.
Do contacts and DMs mean the same thing?
No. A contact is one person, counted once a month however many messages they receive. A DM limit counts every message. A flow that sends three messages to each person uses three DMs but one contact. On Replyinger’s paid plans neither is limited.
Do I need a special Instagram account?
You need an Instagram Professional account (Business or Creator). Switching is free and takes a minute in the Instagram app. You connect through Meta’s official login, so Replyinger never sees your password, and you don’t need a Facebook Page.
