The Prompt

Copy-Paste Ready
I post on Instagram for: [personal brand / small business / hobby page]. The photo or reel is about: [DESCRIBE THE VISUAL AND MOOD]. My audience mostly cares about: [WHAT THEY WANT]. Give me: 1) 5 caption options from very short to medium length. 2) 12–18 hashtags split into broad + niche (no banned spam tricks). 3) One optional line that gently invites comments or DMs without sounding desperate. 4) One line I should NOT use because it sounds like generic AI fluff. Write like a human who knows the niche, not like a press release.

How to Get Better Results

  • Replace generic placeholders with real audience, goal, product, topic, tone, and constraints.
  • Ask the model to create one draft first, then request revisions for clarity, length, examples, or formatting.
  • For important work, verify facts and adapt the final output to your own voice before publishing.
  • For social media workflows, compare the output against your actual task instead of judging only the first response.
