## What you can schedule to Instagram

Reels, single images, and multi-image carousels, plus Stories. Text-only posts are not supported: Instagram requires media. Direct Instagram business login over official Instagram OAuth. There is no Facebook Page selection step.

- Captions up to 2,200 characters.
- Choose feed post or Story on each scheduled item.
- Set a custom Reel cover image, or pick the thumbnail frame by offset.
- Tag up to 10 collaborators on a post.
- Analytics: Instagram is covered by the Genviral analytics dashboard.

## What works the same on every platform

Genviral is one workspace for every connected platform: one composer, one calendar, and one media library. Bring your own files, or make them in Genviral with AI Studio, the slideshow editor, or bulk slideshow creation, then schedule the same content to several accounts at once. Scheduling and publishing are unlimited on every plan.

- Connect several accounts on the same platform and publish to all of them from one post.
- Edit, reschedule, or delete any scheduled post before it goes live.
- Team workspaces with role-based permissions and a shared media library, so nobody shares a social password.
- The same scheduling and publishing runs from an AI agent over MCP or the Partner REST API. See [/agents](https://www.genviral.io/agents).
