Interakt is best known as a WhatsApp platform, but it sells an Instagram-only Starter plan listed at $12 per month plus taxes. That plan includes unlimited DMs and comments, custom auto replies, a Price Please automation for the common question under product posts, giveaway automation that grows followers and builds contact lists, and a flow that collects WhatsApp numbers from Instagram conversations. Inbox automation handles repeat questions in DMs. Moving to Growth at $55 adds WhatsApp, so comments, story reactions, DMs and WhatsApp chats sit in one omnichannel inbox, with campaigns, a chatbot builder and payment links. Interakt states that more than 50,000 businesses use it, and it offers 8% off quarterly and 20% off yearly billing. The Instagram plan has no AI agent, and WhatsApp AI Agents cost an extra $74.99 on Growth and Advanced, so it suits rule-based automation more than AI conversations.
Who it is for
Small businesses that want low-cost Instagram automation now and may add WhatsApp campaigns later.
