Instagram Feed Planner Templates

What is a Feed Planner Template?

An Instagram feed planner template helps you organize what you’re posting, when you’ll post, and the creative details—all in one central dashboard.

  • Notion: Best for content systems (ideas, docs, assets).
  • Google Sheets: Best for fast, batch planning and campaign filters.

How to Build Your Planner

Notion Blueprint

Create a Table database with these properties:

  • Title (Title)
  • Status (Select: Idea, Drafting, Posted)
  • Date (Date)
  • Post Type (Select: Reel, Carousel)
  • Asset Link (URL)

Sheets Blueprint

Set up these column headers for batch planning:

Date | Time | Pillar | Caption | Link | Status

Add Data Validation to the Status column for clean filtering.

Visual Grid Preview Workflow

Once you have your content planned in Notion or Sheets, use the free drag-and-drop tool to check your aesthetic:

  1. Upload Images: Click any empty tile to upload your planned images.
  2. Arrange Layout: Drag and drop tiles to test patterns (e.g., alternating photos and quotes).
  3. Preview 3-12 Rows: See how the profile looks below the fold.
  4. Finalize: Once you love the grid, move your posts to the "Scheduled" status in your planner.

Not for the grid preview tool. Scheduling and auto-publishing inside the main PostQuickAI app require a subscription (7-day trial available).

No. This is a manual workflow: plan in your spreadsheet or Notion, preview the layout in our tool, then publish or schedule.

The free preview tool doesn't save layouts currently. We recommend taking a screenshot once you're happy with your grid.
