Pricing teardowns
What Instagram automation actually costs, read straight off the pricing pages and checked against the volumes real creators send. Per-DM, per-contact, per-seat: we show the math on each one so you can price your own month before you commit to anybody, ours included.
We build inDM, so read these as an informed and interested party's map rather than a neutral referee's. Every figure carries the date we checked it and a link to the page we read it from. Pricing moves, and a teardown without a date is just an opinion.
