Instagram Grid Planner with Post Preview and Captions
Planning an Instagram grid with post preview and captions takes two steps: arrange the images, then write a caption for each. PostQuickAI's free tools cover both, and the app schedules the finished posts.
The grid planner and the caption tools are separate pages, so you can use one without the other.
The grid and caption tools are free. The scheduler has a 7-day free trial on your first plan. Card required. Cancel before it ends and you pay nothing.
Layout First, Then Captions
Some grid planners don't help with writing, and caption tools don't show the grid.
Use both here: arrange the grid, write the captions, then schedule if you want.
Grid Preview
A 3-column grid, 3 to 12 rows deep. Drag tiles to try different orders.
Caption Options
The free generator gives 3 captions at a time for the tone and length you pick. Edit the one you like.
How to Do It
Arrange the Grid (Free)
Upload your visuals to the Instagram Feed Planner. Drag tiles until the order looks right, across 3 to 12 rows.
Write All the Captions
Open the AI Caption Generator. Pick a tone, such as casual or storytelling, and choose the best of 3 options for each post.
Schedule Them
Add hashtags and set the times in the Instagram Scheduler. Our servers publish the posts.
| Feature | What It Does | Why It Matters |

| 3 to 12 rows | Plans up to 36 posts ahead | Room for launches and themed series |
| Caption Generator | 3 caption options per request | A starting point for each tile |
| Hashtag Generator | Makes sets of up to 30 tags | No looking up tags one by one |

Frequently Asked Questions
Pick your next 9 to 18 posts, arrange them in a grid preview until colours and post types are balanced, then write all the captions in one sitting using 2 or 3 caption formats you reuse.

Fewer, well-chosen tags usually beat a long list, and Instagram's limit has changed over time, so check it before you post. The free Hashtag Generator makes sets of up to 30: /tools/hashtag-generator.
