Free AI Instagram Story Maker
Tell this AI Instagram story generator what your story is about. It designs a 9:16 story from scratch while you watch, ready to edit.
How the AI story maker works
The generator above is the real thing. Here’s how one sentence becomes a story you can post today.
Describe it
Say what the story is about: the offer, the date, the feel. Add your colors and logo if you like.
Watch it build
Krumzi designs a 1080×1920 story from scratch, element by element, keeping your headline and button clear of the top and bottom safe zones.
Edit it, then post it
Get a free watermarked JPEG by email. Start your trial to change any layer and download it clean, sized for the story tray.
Exported at 1080×1920 with text kept clear of the top and bottom UI zones, so nothing hides behind the reply bar.
Instagram story examples, one sentence each
Real briefs typed into the tool above, each one a full 1080×1920 story. Hover any story to read the sentence behind it.
You've seen this story before.
So has everyone who follows you. That's what happens when thousands of accounts start from the same template.
Your story isn't a template. It shouldn't start as one.
Same layout, same stickers, same fonts. People learned to tap past that look years ago.
You swap the text and the layout breaks. You fix the layout and the colors clash. All for a story that disappears tomorrow.
The reply bar and the profile row sit on top of the edges. A template built for a square post hides your offer behind them.
Why it beats a story template
Four reasons people stop scrolling past yours.
Designed from zero, every time
Krumzi picks the layout, palette and type for your story. Nobody else in the tray posts the same one.
It’s a design, not a picture
Every word stays real text on its own layer, so changing the date or the price takes two seconds.
Your brand, remembered
Save your colors and logo once. Every story after that comes back looking like you.
Story specs, handled
Correct size, text clear of the reply bar and the profile row, sharp on every phone.
Story ideas for every week
Drops, events, hiring, menus. If it goes in the tray, Krumzi makes it.
Krumzi vs other story makers
How the three ways to make a story actually stack up, from the idea to the tray.
| Krumzi | Template apps | AI image tools | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starts from | Your sentence | Someone else’s design | A prompt and a prayer |
| What you get | A layered, editable story | A layout you fight with | A flat image, melted text |
| Time to done | About a minute | 20 minutes of swapping | Seconds, then re-rolls |
| Fixing a typo | Click it, type | Click it, type, re-align | Regenerate and hope |
| Safe zones | Built in | Only if the template got them right | Ignored |
| Looks like | Your brand | Every other story | “AI made this” |
Template apps are fine for a birthday. Your business deserves its own look.
