Questions

Frequently asked questions

Something missing? Ask us

Does ViralDM have its own MCP server?

Yes. ViralDM builds and runs its own remote MCP server at https://mcp.viraldm.app/mcp, live since May 2026. No Zapier or other bridge is involved.

Is it free?

MCP and API access are part of the Growth plan and above. The Free plan and the free first month of Starter do not include it.

Can the AI DM my followers without asking me?

No. Automations only reply to people who commented, replied to a story or messaged you — Instagram’s rule. A DM to several people is prepared as a draft with a recipient count and is sent only after you confirm it.

Is it safe for my Instagram account?

ViralDM uses Meta’s official Instagram API — your Instagram password never reaches ViralDM, and your ViralDM password never reaches the assistant. Sends are paced, and Surge Guard slows replies down when a reel goes viral.

How do I disconnect an assistant?

In ViralDM go to Security → Connected apps and press Disconnect. Its access ends at once.

Which AI assistants work?

Any assistant that supports remote MCP over HTTP: Claude, ChatGPT (developer mode), Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI and Antigravity, Windsurf (Devin Desktop), VS Code with GitHub Copilot, Perplexity, Notion, Grok, Hermes Agent, n8n, Zed, Cline, LM Studio and Microsoft Copilot Studio.

Can it publish Instagram posts?

Not yet: Instagram publishing is waiting on Meta’s approval. Facebook Page posting works, and every comment and DM tool works on Instagram today.
