What is an Instagram chatbot?

An Instagram chatbot is automated software that holds conversations with your followers in DMs — answering questions, recommending products, qualifying leads and sending checkout links — without a person typing each reply. A good chatbot makes your account feel instantly responsive, even at 2am.

Defuser's chatbot runs on Talksy, our agentic AI. Unlike a keyword bot that only matches exact phrases, Talksy understands what a follower actually means and replies in your brand voice — then hands off to a human in the unified inbox when needed.
