Does the AI place text in the safe zone?

Yes. The AI automatically positions headlines, body copy, and CTAs within Instagram's safe zones so nothing gets cut off by the profile icon, Story controls, or swipe-up area.

Can I create a series of Story ads?

Absolutely. Generate a cohesive sequence of 3-5 Story frames that tell a narrative — perfect for product reveals, step-by-step tutorials, or multi-slide promotions. Each frame maintains visual consistency.
