What it does

Generate a weekly Instagram content plan from a theme, audience, and content pillars. Produces a per-day mix of Reels, carousels, single images, and stories, each with a hook formula, angle, posting time, and primary goal, plus a weekly saves-and-shares goal (the 2026 lever), a story cadence, and a balance check across saves, shares, comments, and follows. Use to plan a week instead of ad-hoc posting. Not for drafting one caption (use ig-caption-writer) or one carousel (use ig-carousel-planner).

Instagram Content Planner

Produce a weekly Instagram plan built around a pillar discipline and the format mix Instagram rewards: Reels for reach, carousels for saves, stories for the relationship. The plan sets a weekly saves-and-shares goal, because sends per reach and saves are the 2026 levers.

When to use

  • User asks "plan my week on Instagram" or "what should I post this week"
  • User wants to escape ad-hoc posting and establish a rhythm
  • Before a launch week (the plan aligns a product pillar)

Input

  • Theme (optional): e.g. "launching our design course"
  • Audience description: e.g. "junior designers, career switchers"
  • Pillar mix (optional): defaults to 40% Educational / 30% Story / 20% Engagement / 10% Promotion
  • Posting cadence (optional): defaults to 4-5 feed posts/week + daily stories
  • Voice samples (optional): past captions for voice calibration

Output

A markdown plan with:
