How it works

Generate Instagram captions in three simple steps

You don’t need to be a copywriter. Give the generator a topic and a rough angle, and it turns them into ready-to-post captions.

  1. Describe your post or video. Add a short description like “before/after client result”, “new product drop” or “educational carousel about hooks”.
  2. Pick your tone and goal. Choose if you want the caption to educate, sell, tell a story or build connection — plus the tone (calm, bold, playful and so on).
  3. Generate and tweak captions. Stratboost drafts multiple captions with hooks, bodies, CTAs and optional hashtags. Edit, save and publish in a few clicks.

Inside Stratboost, the caption generator can pull from your brand voice and offers stored in Stratmind, so captions stay consistent across posts.

See it in action

Example Instagram captions this generator can write

Here are a few sample captions for different types of accounts. Each one starts with a hook, gives value and ends with a clear call-to-action.

Ecommerce brand — product launch post

Input: “New sandal launch for summer, made from recycled materials, mid-range price, relaxed tone.”

HOOK
Your new favourite summer sandals just dropped. 🌞

BODY
Lightweight, comfy and made from recycled materials —
built for long walks, beach days and everything in between.

We kept the design simple on purpose:
no loud logos, no weird colours, just a clean everyday pair
you can wear with almost anything.

CTA
Tap the link in bio to grab your size before it sells out.
Save this post so you don't forget when you’re building your summer fits. 👟
            

Creator — educational carousel

Input: “Carousel with 3 tips to grow on Instagram in 2025, direct but friendly tone.”

HOOK
Three Instagram growth mistakes that are slowing you down in 2025 👇

BODY
1) Posting without a clear “why”.
Every post needs a job: attract, educate or convert.
Pick one job per post before you hit upload.

2) Ignoring your best-performing content.
If one post pops, turn it into a Reel, a Story and an email.
You don’t need new ideas every day — just deeper ones.

3) Weak calls-to-action.
Ask people to do one specific thing: comment, save, DM or click.
Make it obvious what happens when they do.

CTA
Comment “PLAN” if you want my free content checklist,
and I’ll send you the link. 💬
            

Agency — client case study Reel

Input: “Before/after client story, lead generation agency, confident tone.”

HOOK
From 3 calls a month to 27 booked calls in 30 days. 📈

BODY
We partnered with a small consulting firm that was relying
on referrals and the odd LinkedIn post.

Here’s what we changed:
• Tightened their offer and landing page
• Rolled out a simple ad + nurture sequence
• Gave them a follow-up script they actually used

Result? 27 booked calls in the first month and two new retainers signed.

CTA
If you want us to do the same for your agency, DM me “CALLS”
and I’ll send over the details. 📩
            

Simple rules that work

Tips for getting better Instagram captions with AI

  • Lead with one clear idea. Tell the generator the main point of the post, not a rambling paragraph.
  • Mention your audience. Add who the post is for (“online coaches”, “ecommerce brands”, “new creators”). Captions get sharper.
  • Set the tone. Say if you want it to feel calm, playful, punchy or formal. This stops everything sounding the same.
  • Tell it the goal. “I want saves”, “I want comments”, “I want clicks”. The generator can then emphasise the right CTA.
  • Edit the final 10%. Keep the structure, but tweak words so it feels like you, not generic AI.
