Both charge for the contacts your automations actually engage, and both include an AI agent with unlimited usage. The difference is scope and price. SleekFlow's cheapest plan with an AI agent is $99 a month across six channels. Inrō's is €12.99, and every feature is built for Instagram.

Inrō is an Instagram-first DM automation and AI agent platform for businesses that treat Instagram as a real sales channel. It captures intent from comments, Story replies, Lives, mentions, inbound DMs, and click-to-DM ads, then qualifies each lead, answers questions, and books or sells through an AI agent that speaks in your brand voice. Every conversation feeds a full Instagram CRM with tags, segments, and DM campaigns, plus 8,000+ integrations through Make. Inrō is a Meta-approved Tech Provider with built-in pacing and safety. Where most tools stop at a single auto-reply, Inrō runs the whole funnel from first touch to paying customer.

See full pricing →SleekFlow prices in USD per monthly active contact, with unlimited contact storage from Pro AI, and advertises unlimited AI usage. Yearly billing saves up to 25%. WhatsApp messaging carries Meta's own conversation charges, which are billed on top of any platform fee.
Inrō's own benchmark data across Instagram DM automations.
Rebuild your Instagram flows in Inrō, then add the triggers SleekFlow does not run: Lives, mentions, past comments, and click-to-DM ads. Instagram's API does not allow contact lists to be imported into any tool, so your Inrō CRM rebuilds as people engage. If WhatsApp or web chat still carry real volume, keep SleekFlow for those channels and move Instagram to Inrō. You stay on Meta's official API throughout the move.
For businesses whose revenue comes from Instagram, Inrō is the better choice in 2026. Both tools charge per monthly active contact and both include an AI agent with unlimited usage, but SleekFlow's cheapest plan with an agent is $99 a month while Inrō's Pro is €12.99, and SleekFlow's free plan covers 50 active contacts to Inrō's 100. Inrō also triggers on Lives, mentions, past comments, and click-to-DM ads, and ships comment-ratio throttling and wait-for-reply pacing on every plan. SleekFlow is the better choice if you need WhatsApp, Messenger, SMS, Telegram, and web chat in one inbox, with team seats, role-based access, analytics, and Salesforce. Choose Inrō if Instagram is the revenue channel, and SleekFlow if it is one of six.
SleekFlow is an omnichannel conversational AI platform covering WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger, SMS, Telegram, and web chat from one inbox. Inrō is Instagram-first: triggers on comments, Story replies, Lives, mentions, and click-to-DM ads, an Instagram CRM, DM campaigns, and an AI agent that qualifies leads and books calls.
SleekFlow's free plan covers 50 monthly active contacts and 3 users. Pro AI is $99 a month from 500 active contacts and includes the AI agent, unlimited broadcast, and unlimited contact storage. Premium AI is $299 from 1,000 active contacts and adds analytics, webhooks and API calls, and role-based access. Enterprise AI is quoted on request. Yearly billing saves up to 25%.
Broadly yes. Both bill on the contacts your automations engage in a month rather than on everyone stored, and both offer unlimited contact storage. The difference is the amount: Inrō's Pro plan is €12.99 a month and SleekFlow's cheapest plan with an AI agent is $99.
No. SleekFlow advertises unlimited AI usage on its paid plans, as does Inrō on Pro. Neither charges per AI message, unlike tools that sell AI credits.
For Instagram, yes. Inrō replaces SleekFlow's Instagram automations and adds Live, mention, past-comment, and click-to-DM ad triggers, an Instagram CRM, and pacing controls, at €12.99. It is not an alternative if you need WhatsApp, SMS, Telegram, or web chat, which Inrō does not support.
No. Instagram's API does not allow contact lists to be imported into DM automation tools. Your Inrō CRM rebuilds automatically as people engage with your automations.
Inrō. Same active-contact billing, an AI agent with unlimited usage, deeper Instagram triggers, and Instagram-specific pacing controls, starting free and €12.99 for Pro.
