Instagram Mentions in the Social Inbox

Mentions, already available for Facebook, now work for Instagram too. When another account tags your brand in a post or a comment, it lands in Social Inbox as its own ticket, with a link to the source on Instagram.

New: Mentions tickets for Instagram
A mention from another account arrives in the Inbox as a ticket of the Mentions type, so you can see who tagged your brand without checking Instagram by hand. It covers two cases:

  • Another business account tags your brand in a post caption.
  • Another business account tags your brand in a comment under someone else’s post.

Every mention is its own ticket
Each mention creates a separate ticket. Mentions aren’t grouped into threads.

Mentions under your own posts stay Comments
A mention in a comment under your own post still arrives as a regular Comment. That keeps the context of the post, and it doesn’t create a second Mentions ticket for the same thing.

Open the source on Instagram
Each Mentions ticket shows the author and a link to the original on Instagram. For comments, the ticket points to the specific comment.

What you can do with a mention
Mentions are informational. You can’t reply to, like, hide, delete or block them from NapoleonCat. Internal actions still work: tags, assignment, sentiment and notes. To respond, open the source on Instagram.

YouTube Ads comments, translations, and TikTok Ads ​connection

New capabilities shipped to Social Inbox. Here’s what changed:

 NapoleonCat product update graphic presenting three new Inbox features: TikTok Ads comments, a reworked message translation flow, and a new YouTube filter. The graphic shows interface mockups illustrating replying to TikTok Ads comments, setting a translation language, and filtering YouTube results into organic comments, ad comments, and mentions.

New: TikTok Ads Comments
Connect a TikTok Ads account to your organic profile in NapoleonCat. Comments from ads land in the Inbox alongside your organic ones, so you can reply to both in one place instead of switching to TikTok Ads Manager.

New: Reworked Translation Flow
Translation in Inbox v2 now covers both incoming messages and your replies. Set your translation language once, in account settings, and it applies across the whole Inbox, no need to pick it per ticket.

New: YouTube Add comments and filter
The YouTube filter now splits results into three types: organic comments, ad comments, and mentions. Moderate just the ad comments, for example, without digging through everything else.

Inbox Analytics: rebuilt and expanded

Inbox Analytics now matches the new Inbox. Everything that existed before the migration is back, and three new views join it.

New: New Conversations
Track the number of new conversations over time.

New: Conversations by Tag
See how topics and categories break down across the conversations coming through the Inbox.

New: Conversations by Sentiment
Watch sentiment shift over time and see how customers are responding to your communication.

NapoleonCat product update banner with the headline “Inbox Analytics: rebuilt and expanded”. The NapoleonCat logo, “Product Update” label, and headline appear on the left. On the right, three overlapping inbox analytics screenshots show “New conversations”, “Conversations by tags”, and “Conversations by sentiment”, featuring a line chart, pie chart, and sentiment chart.

It makes it easier to catch trends and see what topics are actually driving conversation volume. It also gives you a quicker read on how well conversations are being handled.

Where to find it
All of it lives in the Analytics section.

New counters on Inbox and My tasks

The tab badge shows the number of tickets across your full filtered view. The bulk select counter shows how many you can select right now, based on what’s already loaded on screen.

These two numbers won’t always match. Expect a gap when extra filters are active (tag, sentiment, assignment, search), when you haven’t scrolled to the bottom of the list yet, or when DMs are in the mix, since bulk actions don’t include them.

Use the badge to see how big the queue is. Use the select counter to see what’s actually in front of you to act on.

Sentiment and Tags on Individual Messages: What’s New

We have improved how you can mark messages and entire threads.

Message-Level Sentiment and Tags
Apply sentiment and tags directly to a single message inside a conversation (Messenger, Instagram DM, and similar channels), not only to the conversation as a whole.

Conversations Surface on a Single Matching Message
Filtering by sentiment or tag now surfaces a conversation if even one message inside it matches, not only when the whole conversation carries that label.

Auto-Apply Conversation Sentiment and Tags to Every Message
Setting a sentiment or tag on a conversation now applies it to every message in that conversation.

Auto-moderation: clearer rule conditions

When you combine multiple conditions in a rule, sentiment, message tags, user tags, and keywords are now connected with “AND” labels. You can see at a glance that every condition you set has to match before the rule runs.

This change follows recurring customer questions about how rule conditions combine. No action needed; it applies to new and existing rules automatically.

New: AI Reply Suggestions in Social Inbox

You can now create AI Agents that suggest replies for incoming comments — based on your brand’s tone of voice, FAQs, and any other knowledge sources you configure.

When a comment comes in on an assigned profile, you can ask for a draft reply and then review, edit , or discard. Nothing is sent without your approval.

How does it work?

Trained on your brand

You set up an AI Agent with your brand’s tone of voice, knowledge sources (FAQs, product docs, policies), and custom rules. The AI Agent stays within what you’ve provided — no generic responses, no hallucinated answers.

Human in the loop, always

When a comment comes in on an assigned profile, the moderator can ask the Agent to suggest a reply. Your moderator sees the draft in the composer — they can send it, edit it, regenerate it, or discard it. Nothing goes out without a human reviewing it first.

Works across your channels

Get suggested comments for Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and more — all in one inbox. Set up separate AI Agents per brand or client, each with its own tone and knowledge sources.

AI Reply Suggestions in Social Inbox

What can you configure?

  • Tone of voice (free text description or generated from past interactions)
  • Knowledge sources: uploaded documents, FAQ spreadsheets, URLs
  • Custom rules: per-line instructions the Agent must follow
  • Saved replies: include your existing reply templates as a knowledge source
