Nimbus covers the whole loop: the trigger, the reply, the follow-up, and the plumbing that keeps Meta happy.
instagram · triggers
Every automation starts with something your audience already does. Pick the trigger, write the reply once, and Nimbus handles every repeat.
A keyword in a comment triggers a private reply. Scope it to one post, all posts, or every post you'll publish from now on — the 'future posts' scope means launch-day automations are set up before the post exists.
Comment PRICE → DM with the price list
Alongside the DM, leave a public reply under the comment so the thread shows you responded. One public reply per comment, ever — no spam pile-ups.
"Sent you a DM! 📩"
Anyone who replies to your story gets your automated response — with or without a keyword filter.
Keywords inside direct messages fire specific automations; global triggers act as a catch-all across the account, with per-plan limits so priority stays predictable.
instagram · flows
The first reply is rarely the whole conversation. These pieces run the follow-through for you.
Ask non-followers to follow before they get the goods. Nimbus checks with Instagram, sends your prompt if they don't follow yet, and releases the real message the moment their next reply confirms they do.
Schedule messages minutes or days after the first reply — a nudge, a discount, a 'did the link work?'. Delivered through the same rate-limited pipeline.
Ask for an email inside the DM thread. When the reply contains one, it's saved to the contact automatically — your list grows out of conversations you were having anyway.
Someone comments the keyword again next week? They get the DM again. Repeat interest is a feature, not a duplicate.
whatsapp business
WhatsApp plays by Meta's rules: pre-approved templates outside the 24-hour window, free-form inside it, opt-in always. Nimbus enforces all three so you don't have to think about them.
Compose header, body, footer and buttons; submit to Meta from the dashboard and watch approval status update from Meta's own webhooks.
Send an approved template to every opted-in contact. Sends are paced to your number's messaging tier and per-recipient limits, and you get live sent / delivered / failed counts per broadcast.
Inbound chats get keyword-matched replies inside the 24-hour service window; brand-new contacts can get a welcome message — once, ever.
STOP and UNSUBSCRIBE always work, silently and immediately. Broadcasts never go to anyone who opted out, and START opts them back in.
platform
Messaging infrastructure is mostly about what doesn't happen: no drops, no duplicates, no rate-limit bans.
Every send passes a per-account token bucket tuned to Meta's published caps (~200 automated DMs/hour on Instagram, your sending tier on WhatsApp). Sends that can't go now wait — they don't fail.
Over your monthly quota, new messages hold in a visible queue and drip out as room opens up. You see exactly what's held and why.
Every message has an idempotency key from the moment it's created. Webhook retries, worker crashes and redeliveries can't produce a duplicate DM.
Attach images to automated messages; Nimbus stores a lossless original and serves an optimized copy.
DMs sent and triggers fired per day, and your top automations over 30 days. Enough to know what's working; nothing to impress a board deck.
Export everything from Settings, or delete your account and all stored data. Compliance callbacks from Meta are honored automatically.
The free plan is a full product, not a demo — 1,500 DMs a month, no card.
