Common questions
Can I move my ManyChat automations?
There is no automatic import. Most comment-to-DM automations are a keyword plus a message, so recreating them in Capsflowlab takes a few minutes each.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. Free costs ₹0 and includes one Instagram account with 3 active automations. Paid plans start at ₹299 per month plus 18% GST.
