Comment triggers that sit on the reel, sequences your viewer advances by tapping, and a per-person list you can export. Instagram only — it runs our own channel, and connecting yours is waiting on Meta App Review.
Put the trigger on the reel that already carries the call to action. Keywords are a comma-separated list matched without case — exactly, contained anywhere, or every comment on that post — and a keyword someone types into your inbox can start a sequence too. This runs on Instagram, and connecting your own account is waiting on Meta App Review.
Message one is the private reply Instagram allows in response to a comment, inside the seven-day window it permits — which is also why this needs your own Instagram account connected, and that is waiting on Meta App Review. A public reply under the comment is optional per trigger — useful when you want the rest of the thread to see that the thing was actually sent.
Every step after step one waits for the person to tap or reply. The messaging window refreshes when they do, and a conversation that goes quiet expires cleanly instead of chasing someone who stopped answering.
A sequence can ask for a follow before it delivers. When the platform cannot tell us whether they followed, the sequence advances anyway rather than punishing someone who did, and it stops re-asking after the number of retries you allow.
A sequence is a template with named variables, and each reel supplies its own link, file or wording. Write the flow once and every reel that uses it says the right thing without a copy of the flow per reel.
Host the lead magnet here — up to twenty-five megabytes, the ceiling the platform itself enforces — and the sequence hands out its link. One setting turns hosting off and takes existing links down with it, which is the brake you want when a document should never have gone out.
Every conversation is a row: the commenter, the keyword they used, which reel, which sequence, the step they reached, how many messages they got, whether they tapped, whether they finished, first seen and last event. Export the filtered set as CSV, or read the same rows from your agent with the list_dm_leads tool.
This is the comment-to-DM job people keep a separate subscription for, built where the reel lives instead of in a tool that knows nothing about it. On our own Instagram channel, measured on 21 September 2026, the loop had held 89 conversations and sent 141 direct messages; one reel accounted for 51 of those conversations and 81 of those messages. Those are our numbers on our own channel — ReelMint has no customer results to show you, and will not invent any.
The honest boundary: this runs on Instagram, it needs your Instagram account connected, which is waiting on Meta App Review, and it needs two further permissions beyond the ones publishing uses. Nothing runs until you put a trigger on a reel, and nothing is sent on a timer — a person taps, and the next message goes. That is partly about not being a nuisance and partly about staying inside the platform's messaging rules, which is the same thing over a long enough period.
Comment triggers, sequences, document hosting and the leads export are in the free tier. Running them needs your Instagram account connected, which is waiting on Meta App Review.
