I ordered 10 Instagram comments from a provider and received 25 almost immediately.
At first, it seemed like an amazing bonus. But then I began reading them.
There were only five unique comments. Each one had been copy-pasted five times.
That was a useful introduction to this market. A service can technically deliver more than you paid for and still leave you with a worse comment section than you started with.
With that said, I reviewed 9 vendors of Instagram comments, placed real orders, used my own money to pay for them, previewed each vendor’s comments, reviewed the profiles of the people who were going to be commenting on my posts and monitored exactly what happened once the comments were delivered. I tested different types of posts because an easy lifestyle photo does not reveal much about whether a provider understands context.
The timing matters. According to Socialinsider, Instagram’s overall engagement rate averaged about 0.45% in Q2 2026, with Reels, carousels, and images all declining from the previous quarter. Quiet posts are hardly unusual now.
However, comments receive significantly less scrutiny than does an engagement number. Comments get viewed, responded to, and result in viewers checking out the person behind those comments. Buffer’s 2026 analysis of over 700,000 Instagram posts from nearly 68,000 accounts found that posts where creators replied to comments had about 21% higher engagement relative to the account’s own baseline. This is a correlative relationship and not a causal one; nonetheless it clearly shows that the creation of conversations regarding posts that users create are worth taking seriously.
I did not look for a “safe” way to cheat and/or some sort of a “hack” for the algorithms. There are clear guidelines set forth by Instagram prohibiting artificial/inauthentic forms of engagement, and therefore none of these companies can guarantee you will see increased views or sales, let alone maintain the safety of your account. I simply wanted to answer a practical question: if someone decides to buy Instagram comments anyway, which services produce something they would actually want to leave visible?
What I Looked For
I evaluated each of the services based on what I could see with my own eyes, disregarding words that were simply “buzz” from their websites such as “Premium,” “Real,” etc.
I checked whether comments matched the specific post, how repetitive the wording was, what the commenter profiles looked like, how much control I had before publication, whether the full order arrived, and what the service cost per comment.
I deliberately included posts where generic comments would fail. One was a vocal-school challenge asking viewers to guess which person was not singing. Another was a carousel aimed at beginners. Those posts revealed far more than a simple photo where almost any compliment could pass.
Here is the short version:
| Service | What Stood Out | Trade-Off / Issue | Observed Median |
|---|---|---|---|
| IGComment | Strong relevance, full-batch review, strong profiles | No significant issue in my test flow | $0.329 |
| Insfamous | Strong-looking profiles, good mood matching | Limited control, broad wording | $0.535 |
| SocialWick | Relevant comments at a low price | Profile quality was uneven | $0.348 |
| BuzzVoice | Real tier understood context better | Expensive, limited control | $1.075 |
| Poprey Premium | Good contextual wording | Incomplete delivery in my order | $0.339 |
| Buzzoid High Quality | Preview before purchase | Broad themes rather than post understanding | $1.089 |
| Twicsy High Quality | Preview before purchase | Same broad-theme limitation | $1.089 |
| Superviral | Very fast delivery | Heavy duplication | About $1.10 |
| Pay Social Media | — | Order could not be completed | Not ranked |
1. IGComment: The Strongest Overall Result
IGComment came out first because it solved the problem I kept running into elsewhere: I didn’t have to accept the batch blindly.
My ability to view the full set of comments prior to their release meant that I had complete control over editing individual lines, removing any single line, or generating a new comment if it did not meet my requirements.
This control was far more important to me than having a nice clean preview screen. A small issue can easily go unnoticed by reviewing three separate comments, however when looking at a whole group of comments together, issues become apparent that would have gone unnoticed.
It is possible that two individual comments are acceptable on their own merit, but are virtually indistinguishable from one another when viewed side-by-side. In some cases, changing one word within a given sentence will make it better suited for use.
In addition to being very good in terms of quality (in context), the comments produced by IGComment (when used) treated a beginner song carousel as though it was a legitimate recommendation list (as opposed to general music information). One example of this is:
“The woman in the elegant blouse is fooling us all!”
This works because it actively contributes to the post.
Another area where IGComment excelled in comparison to its competition was in regards to profile quality. All of the profiles I reviewed appeared to be mature personal profiles including photographs, postings, seemingly normal user names, followers, and recent posting history. Additionally, several of the profiles I reviewed had active posting histories (including posting stories).
Additionally, IGComment offered the greatest number of controls that I found useful during my testing. These included; English, Spanish, French, Russian, and German languages; an overall gender ratio; preferred gender for each comment; whether or not the text should be written by the buyer or generated by IGComment; and the ability to spread a large volume of comments out across multiple posts.
My observed median for IGComment was approximately $0.329 per comment. The cheapest serious competitors were only a cent or two away, so price alone was not what put IGComment first. It was the amount of control I had over the final product prior to someone viewing it that made the difference.
2. Insfamous: Strong Profiles, Less Control
Insfamous was probably one of the best services I’ve used for generating comments since I have been able to take a closer look into the actual user accounts that generated those comments.
The profiles I checked were roughly on the same level as IGComment’s. Most had active, “normal” feed handles. They all showed reasonable levels of recent activity. Some even included recent Story updates. It matters because you can write a very good paragraph of prose. However, if you’re going to use it as a comment, it will appear suspicious when your comment originates from nearly an empty account.
Additionally, Insfamous did generate comments fairly well using mood-based photos. For instance, if I took a dark-fashion photo of someone and wrote:
“The energy in this is unreal 🤍✨”
It fit fairly well.
My only real issue with this service was it seemed to be limited in its ability to generate specific types of comments. In other words, Insfamous generated atmosphere-specific comments fairly well, but the actual wording was generally too vague to fit most of any given photo. Therefore, a general dark-elegant comment would essentially work on just about every type of dark-elegant photo.
I also felt like I lost virtually all control of the final results. There was no option to get a complete batch view of all comments before posting (like IGComment). I couldn’t edit or regenerate comments. I didn’t have access to language settings. I couldn’t specify the gender of the commenter. And I couldn’t split posts. At approximately $0.535 per comment, I liked the profiles, but I was paying more while giving up most of the controls I found useful with IGComment.
3. SocialWick: Good Wording, Mixed Profile Quality
SocialWick performed extremely well on contextual wording for the price.
In terms of comments on the food test, there was just one comment asking:
“What’s your go-to comfort food?”
This isn’t a particularly impressive example of copywriting; however, as part of a post and allowing the account owner to easily respond, it made perfect sense. The service cost $3.48 for 10 comments, with an observed median of approximately $0.348 per comment.
However, the profile reviews were very inconsistent. For example, I saw one account having over 9k+ followers and following 2.8k+ accounts. Its most recent posts were receiving anywhere from 2-20 likes. On the other hand, another account had 8.6k+ followers and was following 1.7k+ accounts. Additionally, its most recent posts received anywhere from 9-39 likes.
Again, none of these examples conclusively prove who is operating an account. However, it seemed a little unusual during my manual review to see 2 likes on a recent post from a 9k+ profile. This was a common trade off when using SocialWick – many times I thought the comments were much better than the profiles they came from.
4. BuzzVoice: The Tier Matters a Lot
BuzzVoice offers many different products, all using their brand. The Normal tier generally had generic comments. However, The Real tier offered much better quality comments that were written in response to information found within the posting. A typical example was this on a photo of a bedroom. One commenter wrote:
“Such a peaceful atmosphere, it’s like you’re right there with them 🤩”
This seemed overly polished; however, it at least appeared related to the posted photo. My biggest issue was the price. Five Real Comments cost $6.99, putting the observed median at approximately $1.075 per comment. This price point was more than three times higher than my observed average with IGComment. Yet, I received much less control over which comments actually showed up when compared to their service-created comments.
BuzzVoice also offers “Custom Comments,” where you supply the wording yourself. That can be useful if you already have the text, but it does not show how well BuzzVoice can create relevant comments.
5. Poprey: Good Interpretation, Incomplete Delivery
Poprey was very frustrating. It seemed there would be a lot of potential with the writing style used.
A mirror selfie included neon lights in the background and all the details of the background instead of just taking it as a standard picture. A commenter jokingly said “lol you look like you’re protecting the neon 😂”
The vocal-school preview also understood that viewers were supposed to make a specific guess. A user can split their packages into multiple posts via Poprey Premium. That is a fantastic feature. The price for checking out at different levels were: $10.90 for 25, $18.90 for 50, $29.90 for 100 and $49.90 for 200 comments. This gave an observed median of approximately $0.339 per comment.
But then we ran into issues when trying to get our order delivered.
Over 24 hours since ordering 25 comments, only 7 comments had been received. Some were emoji-only. When reviewing the profiles of those commenting they varied from mixed to poor quality.
The initial writing was great and caught my attention. However, the delivery being slow killed any interest I may have had in scaling.
6. Buzzoid: Choosing a Theme Isn’t the Same as Understanding a Post
I got a real-time preview option from Buzzoid in terms of commenting before I paid. This option provided so much better clarity on what type of comment(s) would be submitted as opposed to simply making a blind purchase.
Buzzoid’s issue however was how these comments were created.
Unlike using a specific post, Buzzoid’s system only used pre-defined categories.
If the closest category was Business the comments read like business related commentary. While this could provide an acceptable solution for a general corporate post, the term ‘business’ provides a system no detail regarding the subject matter (quiz, tutorial, joke, announcement etc.) of the post being referenced.
When it came to my vocal school test, the best category reference resulted in comments about successful business ventures and entrepreneurship rather than people interacting and/or having fun with the video.
For its High Quality reference median rate ($1.089 per comment), the pre-set category references seemed far too restrictive at such a high price point.
7. Twicsy: A Similar Problem
Twicsy functioned similarly to the other two. The preview allowed users to catch issues prior to the check-out process. However, the logic behind it was still based on broad categories rather than the specifics of each individual post. Therefore, when using a Business theme; you may receive comments like this:
“always learning always earning”
This is not necessarily a bad thing to say. It simply doesn’t have anything to do with a video asking viewers to complete a challenge. Additionally, I wasn’t able to make a substitution of an inappropriate response with my own text while within the workflow I tested.
Again, the median quality (High Quality) for Twicsy came in at $1.089 per comment, which places Twicsy at one end of the price scale during the testing and did not fix the issue.
8. Superviral: More Comments, Fewer Actual Comments
Superviral has arguably the best example of a problem with their delivery that I’ve seen in my time testing social media services.
When I placed an order for 10 comments and received 25 almost instantly, as I discussed previously, they delivered 5 different comment messages (each duplicated 5 times) and therefore it appeared as though Superviral’s system delivered many more comments than I actually requested; however, upon closer inspection, I realized that 20 of those comments were duplicates, which greatly diminished the quality of the service.
The use of many randomly generated usernames also contributed to creating the impression that all of these accounts were simply machines. Usernames composed of a mix of animals and random words followed by long combinations of numbers added to the obviousness of this machine pattern.
Of the services I tested, this was one of the more expensive ($1.10 per comment), but arguably produced one of the poorest results.
9. Pay Social Media: The Test Never Really Started
Pay Social Media never developed to the level where I would be able to evaluate the quality of comments.
For approximately 3 hours, the order remained at zero before being cancelled due to non-delivery by the provider. At this time, I ranked the order as “unranked” as opposed to providing false impressions that there was sufficient data to compare its performance against the others.
Which Site Would I Use Again?
IGComment was clearly the top tool for me after evaluating them all.
Insfamous had similar commenter profiles to IGComment however provided significantly less flexibility for the text. The cost for writing comments which were generally very relevant and almost equal to IGComment was significantly lower for SocialWick although the consistency of its profile quality was lower. Poprey was capable of understanding specific posts fairly well, however the partial/low volume order significantly reduced attractiveness of its low cost.
Once I upgraded to the higher tier of BuzzVoice, it quickly increased its cost. Both Buzzoid and Twicsy were heavily reliant upon vague general theme options, not specific post types. Although Superviral did provide more than I paid for; it ultimately resulted in one of the poorest overall performances.
My greatest lesson learned from using my own funds for testing these products is that while price per comment delivered can be helpful as an indicator of value; it will rarely provide a useful answer without having a chance to review other features such as viewing your entire order prior to posting, whether or not you can request comments based specifically on a particular post vs. a broad category of posts, what your commenter profiles look like, etc. It is those characteristics that most clearly distinguished each of the 9 services.
