I am creating an AI tool for generating Instagram Carousel Posts

3d ago in Full Stack Development with AI

Let me start with a little background about the problem.

When I made my first Instagram Page, I knew what content to post for my audience but I just couldn't be consistent. I managed to get my first 3k followers within the first few months. It was ok, but I was not able to post consistently, something that many people struggle with.

I used to follow a fixed pattern when creating carousel posts

Gather the text that I need to write
Open up Canva
Chose beautiful background images from Pexels
Write the text on the background image
Add a little bit of branding and post

Fast forward a few years and ChatGPT is launched. I realized (being a programmer) that all of this can now be AUTOMATED with AI. So, I began working on the platform for creating Carousel posts for IG. And it works exactly in the same way I created posts manually, except that it uses AI.

It uses OpenAI APIs to create the content and fetches images via Pexels API and combines them in an HTML Canvas element which can then be downloaded as an Image.

But why Carousel posts? Because Carousel posts have the highest engagement rate (excluding reels) on Instagram as per Later[dot]com

And now, with this software I created, I am able to create a Carousel post in less than a minute's time. Sounds cool right?

This platform solves the real problem of creating meaningful content quickly and helps stay consistent on social media. This is going to help freelancers who create content for their clients, small to mid-size businesses trying to level up their social media, or even individuals looking to grow their social media.

I am yet to release it publicly as it's still in beta and might contain a few bugs. I am also polishing the platform and making it more presentable and user-friendly.

If you need free access to the software to test it out, just send me a DM and I'll give you free access to it. In return, please help me improve the platform with your feedback.

I will post here once I launch it publicly. I am sure it'll help many.

Thanks!
