AI-Powered Support
One Conversation, Handled End to End
AI Agent, AI Copilot, and AI Actions are built into every plan, working together on every Instagram DM, Story reply, and mention, the same engine used across every other connected channel. A DM at 2am asking to update a shipping address gets resolved instantly if the order hasn't shipped, with AI Actions making the change through a secure API call; if it's already shipped, AI Agent hands it to a human, and AI Copilot already has the full context ready so they can act fast.
A DM, Story reply, or mention, any time, day or night.
Answers from your knowledge base. AI Actions updates the order, like a shipping address, through an audited API call.
AI Copilot has the full history ready, so the agent addresses it quickly instead of reading the thread first.
Core Capabilities
Everything Your Team Needs From Instagram Customer Support Software
-
Story Replies & Mentions
-
Live Chat DMs
-
Comments as Conversations
-
Multi-Account Support
-
Auto-Assignment
Every Story Interaction, Captured
When a customer replies to your Story or mentions your business in theirs, it lands in the same inbox as a live chat, turned on with a toggle in the account's configuration when you connect Instagram.
Direct Messages, Live in Chat
As Instagram DM software, BoldDesk turns every incoming Direct Message into a live chat conversation, the same way Live Chat and WhatsApp do. Agents can link a ticket to any conversation for longer-term tracking, without turning the chat itself into a different object.
Comments Convert to Conversations
Comments on your posts and Reels are captured as conversations too. They don't get a welcome message, AI Agent handover, or auto-close. Agents reply to them directly.
Multiple Accounts, One Workspace
Connect and manage several Instagram Business accounts from one BoldDesk workspace, each mapped to its own brand and agent group.
Auto-Assignment
DMs, Story replies, mentions, and comments all route to the right agent automatically through Auto-Assignment, a block inside Chat Workflows. Rules can be scoped by brand and by Instagram account, with no limit on how many you create.
Beyond The Inbox
What BoldDesk Adds to Instagram Support
Meta Business Suite is where you post and message. It doesn't triage, route, or report on any of it. That's the gap BoldDesk closes.
-
Story replies, mentions, and DMs all land as one live conversation type, no toggling between Instagram's own inbox tabs to catch each kind
-
Multiple Instagram Business accounts route to the right brand and agent automatically, instead of one shared login per account
-
AI Agent resolves repeat DM and Story questions on its own, not just a canned auto-reply
-
Comments get tracked as a conversation too, so nothing quietly falls through
-
Any conversation can turn into a trackable ticket the moment it needs longer follow-up
-
The customer's full history, including email, live chat, WhatsApp, and every other channel, sits alongside their Instagram conversation, in the same workspace

FAQ
Common Questions About Instagram Customer Support Software
BoldDesk's Instagram customer support software connects your Instagram Business account to your customer support platform, working as Instagram live chat software so agents can manage Direct Messages, Story replies, Story mentions, and comments alongside every other channel instead of switching to Meta Business Suite.
No. An Instagram DM, Story reply, or Story mention arrives as a live chat conversation, the same way live chat does. A comment also converts to a conversation. Agents can create and link a ticket to any of them at any point for longer-term tracking, but the conversation itself stays a chat.
Yes. Story replies and mentions land in the same inbox as a Direct Message, turned on with a toggle in the account's configuration when you connect Instagram.
Comments convert to conversations too, but they don't get a welcome message, AI Agent handover, or auto-close the way DMs, Story replies, and Story mentions do. Agents reply to them directly.
Yes. AI Agent can resolve Instagram DM, Story reply, and Story mention conversations on its own, with AI Copilot assisting agents on any conversation that needs a human, and AI Actions handling backend updates like order or account changes.
No. Instagram's messaging policy limits replies to the window after a customer's last message, and BoldDesk follows that policy. There's currently no broadcast or proactive outbound messaging feature for Instagram, unlike WhatsApp and SMS.
Instagram support is included in every BoldDesk plan at no extra cost, from $99 per month for 5 agents to $999 per month for 100 agents, with a 15-day free trial.
