Changelog

Custom Flows: Visual Flow Builder with Conditional Logic

Build branching DM automations on a visual canvas. Ask questions, branch on replies, A/B test messages, and wait for responses, all without writing a single line of code. Your existing instant automations keep working exactly as before.

New:

• Visual Canvas: Drag, connect, and arrange steps on an infinite canvas with zoom, pan, and a minimap.
• Ask a Question: Present options and route the conversation based on what the user replies, matching by exact text, lowercase, option number, or substring.
• Condition Branching: Send people down different paths depending on what their reply contains.
• A/B Testing: Split your audience across message variants to see what converts best.
• Wait for Reply: Pause the flow until the contact responds, then continue down the matched branch.
• Flow Templates: Start fast with ready-made flows for Restaurant, Product Drop, Lead Magnet, Coaching, and Course Waitlist.
• Live Preview: See the whole conversation as chat bubbles before you go live.
• Independent Contact State: Every contact runs the flow on their own, so answers never cross between people.

Improved:

• Smart Validation: Go Live is blocked until empty messages, missing keywords, or unselected posts are fixed. Drafts still save freely.
• Mobile Editing: Touch pan and zoom, with properties opening as a bottom sheet.
• Guided Onboarding: A first-run tour walks you through the builder the first time you open it.

Team Workspaces & Member Invitations

Collaborate with your team on a single Instagram account. Invite members to your workspace, and they see the same automations, contacts, inbox, and analytics as you.

New:

• Invite Members: Add team members by email. They get a one-click invite link to join your workspace instantly.
• Shared Workspace Data: Members see the same automations, contacts, inbox conversations, and analytics, with no separate setup needed.
• Pending Invitations: Track who you've invited and their status. Revoke invites anytime.
• Simplified Roles: Two roles, Owner (full control) and Member (can do everything except remove others).
• Auto-Accept Invites: If the invited user is already logged in, they join the workspace automatically, with no extra clicks.
• Google OAuth Invite Flow: Invite tokens carry through Google sign-in seamlessly.

Improved:

• Remove Member Dialog: Confirmation dialog with loading state before removing a team member.
• Integration Page: Members see the connected Instagram account (read-only). Only the owner can connect or refresh permissions.
• Faster Invites: Invite emails now send in the background, so the UI responds instantly instead of waiting 10+ seconds.

Campaigns: Bulk DM Your Audience

Send targeted DM campaigns to your contacts. Filter by tag or automation, preview your message in a phone mockup, and track delivery in real time.

New:

• Campaign Builder: Full-page campaign creation with audience targeting by tag, automation, or both.
• Live DM Preview: See exactly how your message looks in an iPhone mockup before sending.
• Variable Chips: Insert dynamic variables (name, username) into campaign messages with one click.
• Image & Link Attachments: Attach images and add clickable links to your campaign messages.
• Audience Count Preview: See how many contacts will receive the campaign before you hit send.

Shared Inbox: Real-Time DM Conversations

A full inbox experience for managing Instagram DM conversations. Reply to leads, send media, react to messages, and sync your entire conversation history.

New:

• Conversation List: All your DM conversations in one place with search, filter by status, and unread indicators.

• Contact Notes: Add internal notes to any contact for your team's reference.
• Contact Tags: Organize contacts with custom tags for segmentation and campaign targeting.

Advanced Automation Triggers & Follow-Ups

New automation types, smarter triggers, and multi-step follow-up sequences that keep the conversation going after the first DM.

New:

• Click-to-DM Ads: Trigger automations from Instagram ad clicks, with optional keyword matching or catch-all fallback.
• Story Mentions & Shares: Respond automatically when someone mentions you in a story or shares your reel.

• Edge Caching: Instagram profile and posts are cached at the edge for faster page loads.
• Token Encryption: All Instagram access tokens are now encrypted at rest.
