What can’t Replavia do?
Last updated
Replavia automates Instagram comments and DMs, collects leads and hosts a media kit. It does not grow followers, schedule posts, take payments for brand deals, screen your DMs for scams or work outside Instagram.
It is easier to choose a tool when you know what it leaves out. This is the honest list for Replavia, checked against the product.
Growth and posting
- No follower growth tools. Replavia does not sell followers, likes or views. It does not follow or unfollow accounts for you.
- No follow-gating. You cannot make people follow you before they get the link. Meta does not allow it. See Can I make people follow me first?
- No post scheduling or publishing. Replavia cannot post to your feed, stories or reels. It does not ask Instagram for that permission.
- No cold DMs. Replavia only answers people who commented, replied, mentioned you or messaged you first. See Instagram’s 24-hour messaging window.
Brand deals
- No payments. Brand money never passes through Replavia. It takes no commission.
- No invoices or contracts. You agree the deal and get paid with your own tools.
- No prices set for you. The prices on your media kit are only the ones you type. The editor can show a suggested starting range from published research. Brands never see it.
- No scam screening. Replavia does not read your DMs to find fake brands or impersonators. See How do I spot a fake brand collaboration?
Comments
- No automatic hiding. Comment Shield flags comments. A comment is hidden or deleted only when you click.
- No action on live videos. Instagram does not allow hiding or deleting comments on a live video.
- No reporting or blocking on Instagram. Block in Replavia only sends a person’s future comments to your review inbox, and Stop DM stops your automations messaging them.
Channels
- Instagram only. There are no Messenger, WhatsApp, TikTok or YouTube messages today.
- YouTube offers no official way for apps to send DMs, so comment-to-DM on YouTube is not possible.
Account and plans
- No team seats yet. You cannot invite teammates with their own logins. Team seats and A/B testing are not available today.
- No AI on the Free plan. AI comment replies and the AI DM assistant are on Pro and Scale only.
- Not an email-marketing tool. Replavia collects emails and can send two follow-up emails on Pro and Scale. For newsletters, export your leads to your own email tool.
Good to know
- No tool can promise that Meta will never restrict an account, and Replavia does not.
