WELCOME PROMPTS FOR INSTAGRAM

The first thing they see shouldn't be a blank box.

HyperDM fills Instagram's native ice-breaker slot with up to four tappable welcome prompts — the first thing a new contact sees in a fresh thread. They tap the question they were already thinking; HyperDM answers from your real catalog in about two seconds. No blank box. No keyword to guess.

THE OLD WAY

A fresh DM opens to nothing. Most people bounce.

When a new contact taps into your Instagram DMs, they get an empty box and a blinking cursor. To get anywhere, they have to know what to ask, type it out, and wait — and most won't. The keyword-bot era only narrowed the door: “DM the word PRICE” works only for the people who saw the post and remember the magic word. So the first touch — the highest-intent moment you get with a new contact — is spent asking the customer to do the work. Cold opens don't convert.

  • An empty message box asks for nothingthe new contact has to invent the first message and hope you reply.
  • Keyword triggers only fire if someone already saw the post and remembers the exact word to type.
  • A generic “Hi, thanks for messaging!” greeting fills the silence but starts no sale.
  • The fresh thread is your warmest moment with a new contactand a blank box spends it on nothing.
HOW IT WORKS

Four prompts. One tap. A grounded answer.

You write up to four welcome prompts — the questions new contacts ask you most. HyperDM pushes them into Instagram's native ice-breaker slot on the official Graph API, so they appear the moment someone opens a fresh thread with you, before they've typed a word. They tap the one they were already thinking, and that tap fires the mapped reply — grounded in your real catalog: price, stock and policy. From there it's the same agent that runs every HyperDM conversation — it answers the follow-up, keeps every reply sourced, and drops the checkout link to close.

WHY IT WORKS

A tap beats a blank box every time.

Every welcome prompt is a question you chose, so a new contact sees something relevant and easy — a tap, not a paragraph they have to write. That first tap is a real signal of intent, and HyperDM answers it grounded in your catalog instead of a scripted line. Tap “Do you ship to the UK?” and it replies in about two seconds: “We do — £6 flat, 3–5 days, and free over £75. Want me to start your cart?” Real rates, real next step. You decide what goes in the slot, so every new thread opens on your bestseller, your best offer, or the answer that unblocks the sale.

  • One tap replaces a typed question and a waitso the conversation starts instead of stalling before hello.
  • Steer the opener: put your bestseller, your first-order offer, or the objection that stalls buyers in the slot.
  • Every tap gets a grounded answerreal price, real stock, real policy — never a canned greeting.
  • The same agent takes it from the first tap to the checkout link, and hands off to you the moment a human's needed.
  • Runs on Instagram's official Graph APIaccount-safe, with every send logged.

The honest FAQ.

A keyword trigger only fires if someone already knows the magic word — they saw the post, remembered “PRICE”, and typed it. Welcome prompts need none of that. HyperDM puts up to four tappable questions in Instagram's native ice-breaker slot, so a brand-new contact sees them the moment they open the thread and just taps — no keyword to know, no message to type. Both start a grounded conversation; welcome prompts remove the guesswork about how to begin.
Only at the start of a fresh thread, in Instagram's native ice-breaker slot — the space Instagram reserves for a business's frequently-asked questions before the first message. Once a contact has messaged you, Instagram hides the prompts and the conversation carries on as normal. They're a first-touch tool for new contacts, not a banner on every DM.
No. Welcome prompts never send anything unsolicited. They sit in Instagram's ice-breaker slot and do nothing until a person opens your DMs and taps one. The contact starts the conversation; HyperDM answers. That keeps you inside Instagram's rules on the official Graph API, with every send logged.
No. A tap fires a grounded answer, not a saved script — HyperDM pulls the real price, stock and policy from your catalog and replies in about two seconds. Ask “What's your bestseller?” and it names the product that's in stock, with the price and a checkout link. From that first tap it's the same agent that carries every HyperDM conversation: it answers the follow-up, recovers the cart, and hands off to you the moment something needs a human.

Give every new DM a first move.
