How to book calls from Instagram DMs. From “tell me more” to a call in your calendar.

  1. They reach out

    Invite them to start the conversation

    End a Reel with “Comment CALL”, or simply let people message you. Alto replies and picks up the conversation in their DMs while they’re still interested.

  2. Your questions

    It asks what you’d ask on a discovery call

    Your AI asks your qualifying questions in your voice, one at a time, and answers theirs from what you’ve taught it. Your calls go to people who are a good fit.

  3. The booking

    Booked in the chat, no back-and-forth

    Good fits choose from your real open times without leaving the chat. The call lands on your Cal.com or Calendly calendar, and they get a link to join.

  4. Not ready yet

    A warm welcome back for anyone not ready yet

    Not everyone is ready today. They get your free guide now, and a friendly follow-up later invites them to book. It stops as soon as they do.

  5. Your contacts

    See who booked, and where they came from

    Booked calls show up on the contact, beside the conversation and the post that brought them in, so you always know where a client found you.

Booking calls from DMs FAQs

Talk to the Alto team.

What is an AI appointment setter?

It’s an AI that books calls from your conversations. Alto’s agent replies to people who message you, asks your qualifying questions, offers open times from your calendar and books the call in the chat, in your voice.

How do I book calls from Instagram DMs?

Connect Cal.com or Calendly, tell Alto about your offer and the questions you ask, and let your AI agent book calls. Then invite people to comment a keyword or message you. A ready-made template sets most of it up for you.

Does it book the call itself, or send a link?

Either. Your AI agent can book the call right in the chat, or a keyword can send your booking link. Both show up on the contact.

Which calendars does it work with?

Cal.com and Calendly. Calls are booked on the event you choose, so they land on your calendar like any other booking.

What if someone isn’t a good fit, or isn’t ready yet?

The agent sends what you’ve picked for them, like a free guide or a workshop replay. With their OK, it can add them to your email list or start a short follow-up that stops when they book.

What if a lead asks something only I can answer?

Alto passes the chat to you with a short summary and can ping you in Slack. Anything it couldn’t answer is saved, so you can teach it once.

Can I check replies before they send?

Yes. While you’re getting started, every reply can wait for your OK. You can step into any chat from Alto’s inbox whenever you like.

How is this different from Instagram’s Book button?

The Book button waits for someone to find your profile and tap it. Alto books from the conversations people already start in your comments and DMs, and asks your questions first, so the calls you get are good fits.

Is it safe for my account?

Yes. You connect with Meta’s official sign-in, never your password, and Alto only messages people who commented or messaged you first. Anyone who replies STOP stops hearing from it.

Which plan do I need?

Sending your booking link from a comment or keyword is free on Instagram and Facebook. The AI that asks your questions, books calls in the chat and follows up is part of Pro. Paid plans add TikTok and WhatsApp.
