TikTok carousel creator
Photo carousels are a fast way to turn one idea into a full post. Instamaker writes the slides, captions and hashtags, and renders them as PNGs you upload to TikTok in minutes.
Carousel photos, without the design work
A TikTok photo carousel needs the same thing as any good post: a strong hook, a sequence that keeps people swiping, and a clean look. Instamaker handles all three. One generation produces a hook slide, content slides and a call-to-action slide, plus the caption and hashtags — and the slides come out as PNG files in square (1080×1080) on every plan, or portrait (1080×1350) on paid plans; both fit TikTok's photo mode.
The text in those images is rendered from real HTML/CSS by headless Chromium, so it stays crisp and editable — nothing is baked in as AI-generated image text.
How it works
- Create a niche profile. What you post about, your handle, your default hashtags and call-to-action. Your profile remembers your topic history, languages and brand look.
- Set your look. Themes are pairs of a gradient and an image query — think "neon city lights" or "sunset over mountains". Seven are picked per run, seeded by the topic, so the same topic always looks the same and re-renders match.
- Generate. A background job takes about 30–90 seconds. The LLM's output is checked against a strict schema and retried (up to three attempts) if it comes back malformed.
- Download and upload. Save the PNGs and copy the caption and hashtags for each language.
Fresh topics, every time
Posting carousels daily means burning through ideas fast. Instamaker keeps a per-profile history — the last 50 topics are given to the model as "do not repeat", and a unique slug is enforced so duplicates never enter your history. No more rehashing last month's listicle.
One idea, many languages
Your profile has a source language and target languages. Each target gets its own translation pass with its own caption and hashtags, while the images are shared — so one generation can cover your Spanish and Portuguese audiences too. Photos come from Unsplash via each theme's image query, cached after the first fetch and credited to the photographer.
