A ManyChat alternative for Indian creators
If ManyChat mostly sends links to people who comment on your reels, you’re paying in dollars for a lot you don’t use, and the bill grows with every new contact. 30fps does that job on a flat rupee plan and captions the reel as well.

Questions people ask
Still unsure? Write to hello@30fps.in.
Is there a free ManyChat alternative for Instagram in India?
Yes. 30fps has a free plan with 500 comment replies and DMs a month across 3 automations, no card needed. Paid plans start at ₹599 a month with no reply limit.
How is 30fps priced compared with ManyChat?
ManyChat Pro is billed in dollars and goes up as your contact list grows, so a reel that pulls thousands of comments can raise next month’s bill. 30fps stays at ₹599 or ₹899 a month however many people comment, and the same plan captions your reels.
Can I import my ManyChat automations?
Not automatically. Rebuilding a comment-to-DM automation takes about a minute: pick the post, add the keywords, paste the message and the link.
Does 30fps caption videos too?
Yes. The same plan turns Hinglish and Hindi speech into word-timed captions, with every caption template and an SRT download. ManyChat doesn’t caption video.
Is it safe for my Instagram account?
Yes. 30fps works through Instagram’s official API. You connect with Meta’s own login and choose what to allow. It never asks for your password, never scrapes, and never pretends to be you tapping around the app.
