Meta peers. Grounded public replies versus comment-to-DM workflows.
4 min read · Published Aug 1, 2026
Overview
MyComments.io markets automated comment moderation for Facebook and Instagram posts and ads. Public materials emphasize auto-hiding spam, hate, negativity, and competitor links, plus a unified inbox and AI sentiment analysis. Higher plans (Pro) add an AI intent engine and automatic DMs when people comment. Public pricing starts at $29.99/mo for 1,000 comments, with Growth ($79.99 / 5,000) and Pro ($149.99 / 25,000) tiers.
Why switch
MyComments offers strong hide-and-inbox workflows plus comment-to-DM automation on higher plans. Argus focuses on Brand Voice knowledge, draft-for-review defaults, and a narrow Safe Autopilot path for high-confidence buyer questions under ads.
Argus routes every comment into a per-category action you choose: Auto-hide, Draft for review, Reply & send, Human review, or Do nothing. MyComments toggles rules per type; Argus tunes the outcome per category.
Needs Review, Auto-hidden, and Auto-replied make it clear what the system already handled versus what still needs a person.
Both tools center Facebook and Instagram. Argus does not claim Instagram DM funnels in MVP. Choose MyComments when comment-to-DM is the growth loop; choose Argus when paid-thread moderation and safe public replies are the priority.

Decision guide
How Argus helps
Both hide junk under Meta ads. Argus adds an action per category: Auto-hide, Draft for review, Reply & send, Human review, or Do nothing.
Brand Voice answers refuse unsupported claims. Their AI replies train on your data too, and auto-DM sits on the Pro tier.
Complaints and sensitive topics wait for a person. Auto-DM workflows are a growth extra, not review judgment.
FAQ
Yes for Meta ad comment moderation on Facebook and Instagram. Both hide harmful comments under ads. Argus emphasizes grounded reply drafts, Safe Autopilot, and a Protection board.
No. Argus is Meta-first for Instagram and Facebook ad comments. Neither tool is a TikTok or review-store suite. MyComments also markets comment-to-DM automation on higher plans; Argus does not.
Argus can draft replies and optionally use Safe Autopilot for high-confidence, FAQ-matched buyer questions. It does not claim comment-to-DM automation.
Both use comment-volume tiers. Argus Starter ($29 / 2,500), Growth ($79 / 10,000), and Pro ($399 / 50,000) versus MyComments Starter ($29.99 / 1,000), Growth ($79.99 / 5,000), and Pro ($149.99 / 25,000). Argus Starter includes more comments at a similar sticker. Compare whether you need comment-to-DM on higher MyComments plans.
Argus hides comments from public view so moderation stays reversible.
