Use Cases

Instagram Reels That Look Like Your Brand

Q: Can StoryCut match my feed’s look?

Yes, with a little setup. Save your caption style (any plan) and a brand kit with your colors, fonts and logos (Pro), then pick them for each new Reel. Presets (Pro) save your caption style and editing settings together. Nothing is applied automatically, so you stay in control of each Reel.

Q: Which caption styles work for Instagram?

It depends on your content. Cleaner styles like Light Story or Simple Pink suit lifestyle and aesthetic feeds; bold styles like the Hormozi or MrBeast presets suit tips and talking videos. You can change the font, colors, size, position and animation of all 26 built-in styles.

Q: Can I make a cover image for each Reel?

Yes, on Pro and Business. The AI cover uses frames from your video and your title to create an image in one of 6 styles, in portrait, square or landscape. Download it, place it as the video’s first frame, or upload your own image instead.

Q: What aspect ratio should a Reel be?

Reels are vertical 9:16 videos. StoryCut exports 9:16, and also 4:5, 1:1 and 16:9 if you reuse the video in the feed or on other platforms.

Q: Does StoryCut do carousels or post to Instagram?

No. StoryCut edits one video per project and doesn’t post to Instagram. For a carousel, edit and export each clip separately, then post them from Instagram.

Q: How much does StoryCut cost for Instagram creators?

You can start free: 3 videos at a time, 720p with a watermark. Starter costs $7/mo billed yearly and removes the watermark. Pro costs $14/mo billed yearly ($19/mo monthly) and adds the brand kit, custom fonts, presets, AI cover and AI music.

AI captions in bold or clean styles, your colors, fonts and logos one click away in a brand kit (Pro), and an AI cover for each Reel. Export 9:16 for Reels, or 4:5 and 1:1 for the feed.

A consistent look takes setup, not hours

A recognizable style helps people spot your Reels in a busy feed.

For each new Reel, pick the style and the kit, and spend your time on the content instead of rebuilding the look.
