BUILT AROUND WHAT YOU MAKE

A recipe.
A routine.
A reason to reply.

Offer something specific: a recipe PDF, a training plan, or a guide to your process. Show it in your post. Invite a keyword comment. Deliver what you promised.

Keep your links, resources and store together on a knit.bio page, so the next step makes sense wherever someone finds you.

What does knit.bio do for Instagram?

knit.bio is an Instagram toolkit for creators. Use comment-to-DM automation to send a requested resource when someone comments your keyword. Add a post scheduler, analytics and Post Report, Trial Bench, Comment Shield, a Money Inbox, a public media kit, email capture and product cards in DMs. Availability and limits depend on the feature and plan.

Is knit.bio free for Instagram automation?

Yes. The Free plan is free forever with no card needed: 1,000 automated DMs a month across 3 live automations, planning 10 posts ahead, Comment Shield, analytics, Post Report, Trial Bench, the Money Inbox and a published media kit. Paid plans (Essentials, Pro, Studio) raise the limits and add features. Contacts are unlimited on every plan, so the price never depends on your follower count. See pricing.

Do I need an Instagram Business or Creator account?

Yes, for the Instagram tools. Instagram only allows automation, scheduling and insights on Business and Creator accounts, and switching is free in your Instagram settings. Your link-in-bio page, store and brand-deal tools work with any account.

Does knit.bio use the official Instagram API?

Yes. You log in with Meta, knit.bio never asks for your Instagram password, and nothing logs in as you or scrapes your account. Messages follow Instagram’s own rules, including the 24-hour messaging window and one private reply per comment, and automated DMs are paced instead of sent in a burst. See every Instagram DM limit, explained.

How is knit.bio different from ManyChat, Later or Planoly?

knit.bio connects Instagram DM automation, scheduling, insights, a DM inbox and creator business tools in one workspace. Choose based on the workflow you need and the limits in your plan. Read the feature comparisons with ManyChat, Later and Planoly, and check each provider’s current pricing before deciding.

What can’t knit.bio do on Instagram?

It cannot message people who have not messaged or commented (Instagram does not allow it), it cannot verify that someone followed you, it cannot graduate a manual Trial Reel for you, and it does not work with personal accounts. Where Instagram’s own rules set the limit, each tool page says so under “Limits”.
