AI DM automation that answers every message and moves it toward a sale

Your inbox is a sales floor, and DMCircuit staffs it around the clock. Keyword rules and Claude answer DMs on Instagram, WhatsApp, Slack, Discord and 7 more platforms from one dashboard, move each conversation toward a sale, hand the hard ones to a person, and run consent-first campaigns on a weekly schedule Claude plans for you.

Every plan starts with a movement check, and coaches give knee-friendly options. If you have an injury, check with your doctor first. Here's the trial: pulse.example/o/starterClaude · from your knowledge base

How it works

Three circuits in one

01 · ANSWER

Every message gets a reply

Rules with 3 to 5 keywords catch the common questions, typos included. Claude answers the rest from facts you give it. Refunds, legal, press and "talk to a human" go straight to you, with a phone alert.

02 · SELL

Every reply moves toward a sale

Signed offer links track each click and open Stripe Checkout, or Stripe as merchant of record for digital products. Each sale is credited to the conversation that produced it. Objections are recorded, and follow-ups stop after two.

03 · GROW

Campaigns and creator partners

Campaigns go to people who said yes, on a rotating weekly schedule. AI agents find creators in your niche and draft outreach that waits for your approval.

Claude plans the week. You approve it.

Answer a few questions and Claude proposes a rotation: each platform on its own day, at the hours people use it, with message variants written in that platform's style. Every Monday it reviews replies, clicks, sales and opt-outs per slot and suggests a better schedule.

Example rotation. Messages go out between 08:00 and 20:30 local time, at most once per person per gap you set (default 7 days), and every one ends with "Reply STOP to opt out."

Editorial standards

Honest by design

What DMCircuit does

  • Honors STOP and START on every platform, even during an emergency stop.
  • Rewrites "guaranteed", "100%" and "risk-free" out of AI replies and campaigns.
  • Answers only from the facts you give it, and hands hard questions to a person.
  • Keeps your data in your own Cloudflare and Supabase accounts, with retention and one-click deletion.

What it will not do

  • Read anyone's private messages, or scrape platforms that forbid it.
  • Send automated cold DMs on Instagram, TikTok, X, LinkedIn or YouTube.
  • Message people outside Meta's 24-hour window, or send WhatsApp promotions without an approved template.
  • Contact a creator before you approve the message.
Questions

Before you sign up

Who runs it?

You do. DMCircuit is deployed into your own GitHub, Cloudflare and Supabase accounts by a GitHub Actions workflow, and set up entirely in the browser. The build handbook walks through every click.

What does it cost to run?

An estimate: about $5 a month for Cloudflare Workers Paid, $0 to $25 for Supabase, roughly $2.50 per 1,000 Claude replies at the default model's rates, plus Meta's WhatsApp fees. Check current vendor prices before you budget.

Do I need Meta's approval?

Yes. Instagram, Messenger and WhatsApp need your own Meta app to pass App Review. Until then, only people with a role on the app get replies, which is ideal for testing.

Where does DMCircuit fall short?

It is new and has no vendor support team or SLA. You set it up yourself. TikTok works through ManyChat, and there is no SMS or email inbox channel.

Is it part of ShipShield?

No. DMCircuit is a standalone CloudOneSoftware product. It was built with ShipShield Build and checked with ShipShield's scanner.
