Can I Set a Delay Before Comment Autoreply?

Yes — with the Message delays setting. Every automation has it, including the comment sources, and it adds a natural typing pause before Fuely AI replies, so the answer doesn't feel instant and robotic.

Note: Message delays is a natural pause, not a scheduler — there is no option to postpone a comment autoreply by minutes or hours.

Set it up in Automations

1. Go to Fuely AI → Automations.
2. Open the comment automation you want — post & reel comments or ad comments — or Main bot to change the delay everywhere.
3. Adjust Message delays.

By default the setting is inherited from Main bot; override it on a comment automation if you want different pacing there.

Or ask the AI Co-Worker

Tell it what you want in chat:

"Add a short pause before the AI replies to comments."

It applies the change and confirms what it set.

Tips

• Use a natural tone — pacing is only half of it. Write Additional instructions that make Fuely AI sound conversational and human.
• Combine public + DM replies — a short public reply under the comment plus a longer private message lets the conversation continue at the commenter's pace.
