snazzy runs on Instagram’s official API

Not a bot logging in as you. Not a browser extension. Not a scraper. A Meta-reviewed app, using permissions you granted and can revoke in one tap.

Can snazzy get my Instagram account banned?

Nothing snazzy does is against Instagram's rules, because snazzy can only do what Meta's official API permits. We post through the Instagram Graph API using a token you granted us, with the exact permissions you approved on Meta's own consent screen. There is no automation of the Instagram app, no logging in as you, no scraping, and no unofficial endpoints — the techniques that actually get accounts restricted.

Can auto-DMs get my account flagged?

DMs are where that worry is real, so here is exactly what snazzy does. It only messages people who wrote to you first or commented on your post — a private reply to their comment, or an answer inside Instagram's 24-hour window — never a cold or bulk DM. snazzy caps automated DMs at 200 per hour per account. That is our own cap, not a number Meta publishes: it sits well above what a real creator reaches and below what a runaway rule would send. And snazzy never asks for your ad accounts or business assets. If you connect through Facebook, it also asks to see your Pages, because that is how Instagram is linked to them — nothing more.

Using another DM tool on the same account?

Don't give both tools the same keyword. Instagram sends every comment to every app connected to your account, so both would reply and people would get two DMs. Use a different keyword in each tool, or turn the rule off in one of them.

What does “Meta Tech Provider” mean?

It is a status Meta grants after reviewing a company that builds software for other businesses. We passed Access Verification as a Tech Provider, and Meta separately verified the business behind snazzy — ASHLYTIC LABS LLP, a registered Indian limited liability partnership. Both were prerequisites before Meta would grant us the permissions below.

Which permissions does snazzy actually hold?

All five: publishing, profile, insights, messaging and comments are at Advanced access, granted by Meta App Review — the first three in August 2026 and messaging and comments in September 2026. Advanced access is not something an app can switch on for itself: Meta reviews a recorded walkthrough of the real product and either grants it or does not.

What can snazzy see?

Only what you granted: your professional account's profile and media, the ability to publish posts you schedule, and insights on those posts. We cannot read your personal messages, your followers' data, or anything on a Facebook account. Your access token is encrypted at rest with AES-GCM and is never shown in the dashboard or sent to a browser.

How do I revoke it?

Instantly, from Instagram itself — Settings → Website Permissions → Apps and Websites — without asking us. Disconnecting an account inside snazzy deletes the stored token, and deleting your account removes the rest. You do not need our cooperation to cut us off, which is the point.

Do you sell or share my data?

We do not sell it. snazzy is paid for by subscriptions, not by advertising or data. We share it with the infrastructure needed to run the product, and with one exception you can refuse: if you allow it, Meta's tag measures whether our own ads work, and when you sign up Meta receives a one-way hash of your email — never the address — with your IP address and browser type, so it can tell which ad you came from. "Cookie choices" at the bottom of every page turns that off. The full list is in the privacy policy.

Why this page exists

A lot of Instagram “growth” and DM tools work by driving the Instagram app or website as if they were you. Those tools do get accounts restricted, and it is reasonable to assume every tool works that way. snazzy does not, and the difference is checkable: Meta grants Advanced access only after reviewing the working product, and you can see exactly which permissions you gave us on Instagram’s own Apps and Websites screen.

Instagram shows you every permission before you approve anything. Nothing is granted until you tap Allow.
