Spur vs UnlockDM: common questions

For Instagram-only creators running occasional campaigns, usually yes: UnlockDM charges once per campaign (Spark $3.99, Drop $8.99, Viral $18.99) and your first campaign is free, while Spur starts at $15/mo billed monthly. If you need WhatsApp, an AI support agent or a team inbox every month, Spur covers ground UnlockDM does not, so the comparison is not like for like.

Yes. Spur lists Instagram comment-to-DM as a product, with keyword-triggered replies, and says it can ask commenters to follow if they are not already following.

Spur shows a Meta Business Partner badge and states it is an official Meta Tech Provider. UnlockDM also uses the official Meta API as a Meta Verified Tech Provider.
