Nobody gets skipped
Every comment with your keyword gets the link, code or freebie in their DMs. Nobody waits for you to wake up, and nobody misses out because you answered the first 40 and gave up.
A Reel takes off at 2am. Every “link?” still gets the link.
When a Reel takes off, hundreds of people comment for the link and most creators answer a fraction of them. Askenly sends each one the link within seconds and keeps going at 3am, so the post keeps earning while you make the next one.Askenly sends the link to everyone who comments, within seconds and even at 3am, so a Reel keeps earning while you make the next.
Sound familiar?
If any of these happened this month, this page is for you.
- You answered the first 40 “link?” comments and gave up on the rest.
- You pasted the same link into DMs all evening instead of filming.
- Someone asked for the freebie at 3am and had forgotten you by morning.
Is Askenly right for you?
Better to know now than after you’ve set it up.
It’s for you if
- You give away guides, presets or links in exchange for a comment.
- You want followers and emails out of the posts you already make.
- You’d rather film than answer the same DM 200 times.
It isn’t for you if
- You want to DM people who never commented or messaged you. Askenly only replies to people who reached out first.
- You want to buy followers or fake engagement.
- You don’t use an Instagram Creator or Business account yet. Switching takes a minute.
More sales from the posts you already make
You post as often as you do now. More of the people who ask get what they asked for.
Your launch evenings back
Stop pasting the same link into hundreds of DMs. Write the message once and spend that time filming, editing and talking to the people who reply.
The link lands while they’re watching
The DM arrives seconds after the comment, while the person is still on your Reel and most likely to tap, buy or sign up.
Why “comment for the link” works
Instagram doesn’t allow clickable links in captions, and “link in bio” asks people to leave the post, find your profile and hunt for the right link. Many don’t. Asking them to comment a word keeps them in the moment: one comment, and the link is in their DMs.
The comments also help the post itself, because a Reel with an active comment section looks alive to everyone else scrolling past. Askenly turns every one of those comments into a delivered link, without you copying and pasting the same message all evening.
Ideas creators run with Askenly
Free guide or checklist
Comment GUIDE to get the PDF. Ask for an email first if you want to grow your list.
Presets and templates
Comment PRESET and the download link arrives as a button.
Affiliate links
Comment LINK on a try-on Reel and the product links go out in the DM, each as its own button.

Collab and brand enquiries
Comment COLLAB to get your media kit, and the chat moves to your Inbox for the follow-up.
Grow followers without annoying the ones you have
Follow to unlock asks people to follow before the link arrives. Askenly checks Instagram’s follow status first, so people who already follow you get the link straight away.
Everyone else gets a Follow button and an I’m following button. If Instagram can’t say whether someone follows, they still get the link, so nobody who did what your post asked is left empty-handed.
Example conversationPRESET
PRESET please
Follow to unlock the preset pack, then tap I’m following.
Turn comments into an email list you own
Reach on Instagram rises and falls with the algorithm. An email list is yours to keep. With the Get more sales goal (Growth and Scale), the DM asks for an email address before sending the content, confirms it back in the chat and saves it to the contact.
From there Askenly can send a short email sequence, such as the guide, a tip a few days later and your offer. The sequence ends early when someone clicks, so people who already acted don’t keep getting reminders.

What to watch after you post
Each automation has its own page with the DMs it sent, the taps and emails it turned into qualified leads, and whether each message was delivered, over the last 30 days. If a Reel brings in comments but few taps, the opening DM is usually the thing to change: shorten it and make the button label say exactly what they get.
