What is Instagram Shopping Bot?
An AI chatbot that helps customers discover and purchase products through Instagram DMs by leveraging your Instagram Shop catalog.
Detailed Explanation
An Instagram Shopping bot combines Instagram's native product tagging and Shopping features with DM automation to create a seamless in-app purchasing journey. When a customer taps a product tag in a post or story and sends a DM, the bot can immediately provide pricing, availability, size options, and a direct purchase flow. This meets customers at the moment of highest purchase intent — right when they're looking at a product — with an instant, helpful response that keeps them in the Instagram environment.
