The Reels Challenge

Keeping up with Instagram's video-first algorithm

Instagram Aesthetic Standards

Reels need to look polished. Raw footage doesn't match the curated Instagram vibe.

Algorithm Favors Video

Instagram pushes Reels hard. Static photos get buried. You need video content to stay visible.

Feed Consistency Matters

Your grid needs to look cohesive. Random clips can throw off your carefully curated aesthetic.

Questions from Instagram Creators

What's the ideal Reels length?

Instagram favors Reels between 15-30 seconds for discovery. Our AI creates clips in this sweet spot for maximum reach.

Will the clips match my Instagram aesthetic?

Clips are clean and high-quality. You can further edit in Instagram or apps like VSCO if you want to match specific color grades.

Can I use these for Stories too?

Absolutely! The 9:16 format works perfectly for both Reels and Stories. Double the content from one upload.

How do I add trending audio?

Download the clip, then add audio directly in Instagram when creating your Reel. This gives you access to Instagram's full audio library.
