Instagram story maker

No, and there is no ratio control to suggest otherwise. Every story comes back at 9:16, so a control offering 1:1 would hand back the same vertical frame. That is also why the default image model here is Gemini 3.1 Flash Image rather than the flagship GPT Image 2 used on the other image tools: it honors the 9:16 request, while GPT Image 2 quantizes to 2:3 and ships a story that reads short.

You can set every control first. Generate is where sign-in is asked for, and it opens over the tool rather than throwing you to another page. Your hook, direction, template and sticker are written to the browser as you type and put back afterwards, including when an email confirmation lands in a second tab. Runs then bill your org's credits, and this public page caps runs at 20 per ten minutes per address.

Pick a project in the header dropdown instead of leaving it on Quick tools, which is a scratch space with nothing to read. The Product slot under References then goes in as reference image one and is reproduced exactly, same form, label text and colors, and the headline and subhead have to weave at least two verbatim tokens from that project's research and brand pool. The same dropdown has a Use this project's details toggle to turn that off.

One. Generate produces a single 9:16 image plus headline, subhead and CTA label. Template is where you name the shape you are working toward, from Single hook to 5-frame, but each run asks for one image, so a multi-frame story is built by running the tool again for each frame. Every run is saved to the project you picked and shows under the History tab on this tool.

The art direction is written to a 1080x1920 canvas with the top 270 pixels and the bottom 400 pixels handed to platform chrome. The hook is placed in the upper third, inside a text-safe box of roughly 850x1250 starting 65 pixels in. The low band around y 1450 is kept clear for the real link sticker, so nothing you wrote sits under the caption or the reply bar.
