Instagram + Poe integration
Connect Instagram to Poe
ConnectChats brings your Instagram chats into Poe. Ask Poe to catch you up, find any message and draft replies. Nothing gets sent until you approve it.
Free to start. No app to install. Every send needs your OK.
What Poe can do with your Instagram
ConnectChats gives Poe a small set of tools. Poe calls them when you ask about your Instagram chats, and only for the chats you share.
-
Catch you up
Ask what you missed and Poe reads your unread Instagram chats, then gives you the short version: who needs an answer, what was decided, what can wait.
get_messages_to_summarize -
Find any message
The address someone sent last month, the price a client agreed to, the link from a group chat. Poe searches your Instagram history and quotes the message.

Draft replies
Poe writes the reply in your tone, in the chat's language, with the context of the whole thread. You read it, edit it, and send it.
draft_reply -
Send with your OK
When you approve a draft, ConnectChats sends it from your own Instagram account and confirms delivery. Auto-send only runs in chats where you switch it on.

How Instagram and Poe work together
ConnectChats links to your Instagram direct messages. You sign in with your Instagram account and your AI app sees the DM threads you choose to share. Posts, comments and stories stay out of it.

Instagram in ConnectChats
One to one DMs and group chats are supported, including message requests. Shared posts, reels, photos and voice messages show up as short text descriptions. Each linked chat starts with its last 200 messages, then every new message arrives as it is sent. Creator and business accounts work too, which helps when your inbox is mostly people asking the same questions.

ConnectChats in Poe
ConnectChats works with Poe through an MCP server or connector setting, where Poe offers one for your account. Add it with https://api.connectchats.com/mcp, sign in with your passkey, and the bots you use can see the chats you share. Many of the models on Poe, such as Claude and GPT, also use ConnectChats in their own apps. The same ConnectChats account works in every AI app, so the chats you already linked are available in Poe without linking them again. ConnectChats only sees the chats you choose to share, and it asks for your approval before any reply is sent.
Your Instagram stays under your control
-
You pick the chats
Poe only sees the Instagram chats you share. Unshare a chat and it disappears from every AI app at once.
-
Drafts by default
Poe prepares replies. You approve each one before it reaches Instagram, unless you turn on auto-send for that chat.
-
Stored messages are encrypted
Stored messages are encrypted with a key that only your passkey can unlock. We never train models on your messages.
