Zorcha's free plan allows 3 automation setups — 3 concurrent workflows you can have running at once. A comment trigger, a story reply, and a keyword DM and you've hit the ceiling. Unlocking more costs ₹1,199/month. ReplyKo Creator gives you unlimited setups, unlimited DMs, all four trigger types — at ₹499/month.
Free plan: 100 automations/mo · Creator plan: ₹499/mo unlimited · No AI credit system.

AI credits system. Each setup fires unlimited DMs — but you can only have 3 workflows active at once on the free plan.

Flat pricing, no credits. Comment, story, live, and keyword triggers. 58% cheaper than Zorcha Pro.
The Zorcha free plan problem
Each Zorcha automation (a keyword rule, a story reply flow, a DM sequence) counts as one setup against your limit of 3. Each one fires unlimited DMs — but you can only have 3 running at the same time on the free plan.
Free plan — concurrent campaigns you can run
Keyword trigger on Post A → DMs link to followers
Setup 1 of 3 used
✓ Unlimited setups
Story reply automation → DMs when followers reply to story
Setup 2 of 3 used
✓ Unlimited setups
Keyword trigger on Post B with a different keyword
Setup 3 of 3 — limit reached
✓ Unlimited setups
Add IG Live automation for an upcoming session
Upgrade required (₹1,199/mo)
✓ Unlimited setups
Each Zorcha automation setup fires unlimited DMs — the limit is on how many concurrent workflows you can have active, not how many DMs each sends.
Monthly cost for unlimited setups
Zorcha Pro
₹1,199/mo
Unlimited automations, 10 team members, 150K AI credits.
ReplyKo Creator
₹499/mo
Unlimited automations, 5 accounts, 2 team seats. No credit system.
You save ₹700/month
That's ₹8,400/year — for the same core Instagram DM automation features.
What you're actually building
A keyword comment triggers an instant DM. Set it in 3 minutes, runs automatically from there.
Trigger: comment keyword · Meta official API · Fires in under 10 seconds
Honest comparison
Zorcha has real strengths — especially if you want AI-powered reply flows. Here's the honest split.
ReplyKo fits better when…
You want a free plan that's actually usable
100 automations per month — enough to run a real campaign with multiple posts and trigger types before you spend a rupee.
₹499/month fits your budget better than ₹1,199/month
Both give unlimited automations. ReplyKo is 58% cheaper for the same core functionality.
You want IG Live auto-reply
ReplyKo fires DMs on IG Live keyword comments — a trigger type that isn't prominently offered by Zorcha.
You want simple, flat pricing without AI credits
No credit system. No usage tiers. One monthly price, unlimited automations — whether you run 5 triggers or 500.
You manage multiple accounts or clients
ReplyKo's Agency plan: 30 accounts, 10 workspaces, 50 team seats at ₹2,499/month. Zorcha doesn't have a comparable multi-account agency structure.
Zorcha fits better when…
You want AI-powered reply generation
Zorcha's AI credit system powers intelligent, contextual DM responses that go beyond keyword-matched templates. If you want the bot to answer varied questions naturally, Zorcha's AI layer adds real value.
You want follow-gating on your links
Zorcha's 'Ask for a Follow' automation only sends the DM to verified followers — useful if you want to make sure your link doesn't go to randos before they follow your account.
You want to collect emails and leads inside DMs
Zorcha's form system collects email addresses and phone numbers directly through DM flows — a lead gen feature built into the automation workflow.
If you just want reliable comment-to-DM and story reply automation at the lowest price, Zorcha's AI feature set is more than you need — and you're paying for it whether you use it or not.
Both tools do these well
Who this is for
If keyword-triggered DMs and story replies are what you need — and you don't need AI-generated responses or lead collection forms — ReplyKo gives you the same unlimited automation at ₹499/month. That's ₹8,400 saved per year.
Zorcha's free plan caps at 3 active automation setups total. If you're running a keyword trigger on an active post, a story reply flow, and a live campaign — you've hit the wall. ReplyKo Creator at ₹499/month has no setup limit.
ReplyKo's Agency plan covers 30 accounts, 10 workspaces, 50 team seats at ₹2,499/month flat. One invoice, all clients. Zorcha's team features are focused on individual account collaboration, not multi-client agency management.
Migration
Nothing exports from Zorcha — your keyword triggers and DM templates are tool-side config. You rebuild them in ReplyKo, which for most creators means 2–3 flows.
Authorize ReplyKo through Instagram's official OAuth. Same Meta account you used for Zorcha. Two minutes, no passwords.
Set your keyword, select your posts, write your DM message. Each flow takes 3–5 minutes. Most creators have 2–3 active ones.
Run both on the free plan for a few days. Once ReplyKo has fired on real audience comments and you've confirmed it works — cancel Zorcha.
FAQ
Zorcha's plans are priced around 'AI credits' — the free tier gives 15,000, Pro gives 150,000, Ultimate gives 1.5 million. These credits fuel AI-generated responses, FAQ automation, and lead collection flows. If you want basic keyword-triggered DMs, you're paying for an AI system you may never fully use. ReplyKo doesn't have a credit system — you pay a flat monthly fee and run as many automations as you need.
Zorcha's primary focus is comment-to-DM and story reply automation, with DM-to-DM flows. IG Live auto-reply isn't prominently listed as a core feature. ReplyKo supports all four trigger types including IG Live comment triggers on the Creator plan.
Yes. Automations are tool-side configuration — your keyword triggers and DM templates aren't stored in a portable format. You rebuild them in ReplyKo, which takes 3–5 minutes per flow. Most creators have 2–3 active automations. Total migration time: under 15 minutes.
ReplyKo's core automations fire for all commenters using Meta's official API, which follows Instagram's standard engagement rules. Zorcha's 'Ask for a Follow' feature — which verifies follower status before sending a DM — is a specific Zorcha feature that ReplyKo doesn't currently replicate.
Zorcha: Free (3 active automation setups, unlimited DMs per setup), Pro (₹1,199/mo, unlimited setups). ReplyKo: Free (unlimited setups, 100 DM sends/month), Starter (₹299/mo), Creator (₹499/mo, unlimited setups + unlimited DMs), Agency (₹2,499/mo, 30 accounts). For unlimited automation, ReplyKo Creator at ₹499/month is 58% cheaper than Zorcha Pro at ₹1,199/month.
Yes. The Agency plan supports 30 Instagram accounts, 10 workspaces (one per client), and 50 team seats at ₹2,499/month flat. It's designed for agencies who manage creator clients and need a clean per-workspace billing structure. Zorcha's team features are focused on individual account collaboration rather than multi-client agency management.
