Story replies

Automatic replies to Instagram story replies and mentions

Stories drive the most personal replies on Instagram. Growzy answers every one of them, with a message that matches the story people are reacting to.

Free plan includes Story replies and every other feature.

Story replies pile up for 24 hours, then the story is gone

A “reply for the link” story can bring in more messages than you can handle before it expires. Miss them, and the context is gone too.

Mentions from customers and fans deserve a thank-you, but finding and answering each one by hand is easy to forget.

How it works

Set it up once in the Growzy dashboard. It runs on every matching comment or message after that.

  1. Choose the story trigger

    Start from the “Reply to story replies” template.

  2. Pick any story or a specific one

    Reply to every story, or set a message for one particular story.

  3. Write the reply

    Add text, a link button or a lead form. Growzy replies as soon as someone responds.
