ReplyKaro stops at 1,000 DMs. We don't stop.
ReplyKaro is a genuinely good, genuinely cheap Indian tool. Its free plan just has a ceiling, and one viral reel is all it takes to hit it. Peerseek Auto DM has no monthly DM cap at any volume, and no paid tier to upgrade into.
Quick answer
ReplyKaro's free forever plan covers 1,000 DMs per month on 1 Instagram account with 3 active automations, after which Starter costs ₹99/month (about $3) for 30,000 DMs. Peerseek Auto DM is the closest free alternative with no monthly DM cap at all, covering comments, reels and story replies on Meta's official API with no credit card required.

Why creators move off ReplyKaro.
The 1,000 DM ceiling arrives fast
1,000 DMs sounds generous until a reel performs. A single post that draws 1,200 comments leaves 200 people without your link, and the cap resets monthly rather than topping up. Peerseek has no monthly ceiling, so the size of the spike never matters.
Three automations is the real limit
The free DM allowance gets the attention, but 3 active automations is what most creators hit first. Running a lead magnet, a booking link and a product drop at once already uses all three. Peerseek does not cap how many automations you run.
Automation is the start, not the goal
ReplyKaro delivers the DM and stops there, so you still need a separate checkout, booking page and payout rail. On Peerseek the consultation, webinar or product the DM points at lives in the same account, with UPI payouts built in.
When ReplyKaro is the better choice
Genuinely cheap paid tiers in rupees, and multi-account plans (5 accounts at ₹449/mo, 10 at ₹799/mo) that Peerseek does not offer at all.

|---|---|---|---|
| 1.Peerseek Auto DM | No volume cap Unlimited DMs across every post you publish, plus follow-gating and public comment replies. No contact cap, no monthly cap, no credit card. | 20 keywords per automation, one Instagram account, and no Live trigger. Instagram only. | No paid tier |
| 2.SuperProfile AutoDM | No volume cap Unlimited AutoDMs on Reels and Posts, with a link-in-bio store included. | Only 3 keyword triggers and 10 lead-magnet responses. Story, Live and DM triggers, follow-gating and email capture all need the paid plan. | $29/mo |
| 3.ReplyKaro | Capped 1,000 DMs per month on 1 Instagram account, 3 active automations. | Hard 1,000 DM ceiling. One viral reel can clear it in an afternoon. | $3/mo |
| 4.LinkDM | Capped 1,000 DMs per month on 1 Instagram account. | Free is limited to your last 10 posts, carries LinkDM branding, and comment auto-reply needs Pro. | $19/mo |
| 5.CreatorFlow | Capped 500 DMs per month on 1 Instagram account, with unlimited keyword triggers. | 500 DMs is roughly one strong reel, and it resets rather than rolls over. | $15/mo |
| 6.ManyChat | Capped 25 active contacts per month, up to 2 channels, up to 4 automations. | Counted per person, not per message, so 25 people ends the free plan regardless of volume. | $17/mo |

Questions, answered
What is the best free ReplyKaro alternative?
Peerseek Auto DM, if your reason for leaving is the 1,000 DM monthly ceiling. It has no monthly DM cap, no credit card requirement, and covers comments, reels and story replies plus follow-gating on the free plan. Two other tools advertise uncapped free DMs: SuperProfile, which is uncapped only on Reels and Posts with 3 keyword triggers, and WhoseDM, a newer and smaller tool offering automation alone. Every other option caps free usage at 1,500 DMs a month or less.
How much does ReplyKaro actually cost?
Verified on replykaro.com/pricing on 1 September 2026: Free forever covers 1,000 DMs per month on 1 account with 3 automations. Starter is ₹99/month (about $3) for 30,000 DMs and 10 automations. Pro is ₹299/month (about $9) for 250,000 DMs and unlimited automations. Growth is ₹449/month for 5 accounts and Agency is ₹799/month for 10 accounts. All plans carry a strict no-refund policy.
Is ReplyKaro cheaper than Peerseek?
Neither costs anything to run Instagram automation. ReplyKaro's paid tiers start at ₹99/month, and Peerseek Auto DM has no paid tier at all. The difference is how each makes money: ReplyKaro charges a subscription, and Peerseek charges a flat 5% only when someone buys a paid consultation, webinar or digital product through it. If you automate but never sell, Peerseek costs nothing.
Can I run multiple Instagram accounts on Peerseek?
Not currently. Peerseek Auto DM connects one Instagram account per creator profile. If you manage several brand accounts or run an agency, ReplyKaro's Growth plan at ₹449/month for 5 accounts or Agency at ₹799/month for 10 is the better fit, and we would rather tell you that than waste your time.
Is switching from ReplyKaro safe for my Instagram account?
Yes. Both tools connect through Meta's official Instagram API using Instagram's OAuth login, so neither ever sees your password. Disconnect ReplyKaro after connecting Peerseek so two tools do not reply to the same comment.
Does Peerseek work outside India?
Auto DM works anywhere Instagram's official API is available, and signup accepts international phone numbers, so a creator in the US, UK or Philippines can use it free. Paid selling through Peerseek currently settles through Indian payment rails, so creators outside India can automate but cannot yet take payouts.
