Schedule your Instagram Reels

Plan, preview and publish Instagram Reels from one calendar. Set the caption and cover, get a yes from your team, and keep Reels in step with your other channels.

How Profaily works for Instagram

Preview

See the Reel before it posts

Upload the video and write the caption. Profaily shows it in an Instagram Reels preview, caption included.

Schedule

Set the Reel details

Choose the cover, decide whether the Reel also shows on your Feed, and pick a time or the next open slot.

Feed sharing is a setting, not a second upload
Profaily checks the video against Instagram’s limits first

Approve

Get a yes before it goes live

Send the Reel to a producer for review. They can comment, ask for changes or approve it, and nothing is scheduled until they do.

Comments and changes stay on the video
Share a review link with a client

Why teams use Profaily for Instagram

Reel details in one place

Caption, cover frame and Feed placement sit next to a Reels preview, so you see the result as you set it.

The same video on more channels

Send one upload to Instagram Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts and Facebook, with a caption written for each.

A queue you do not have to babysit

Set your posting times once. New videos drop into the next open slot, and you can ask for a time in plain words, like “next Tuesday 6pm”.

Plan it from ChatGPT or Claude

Ask your assistant to draft, send for review and schedule Instagram videos through Profaily’s MCP server. Your approval rules still apply.

Limits come from Instagram and are checked in Profaily before a post is sent. Publishing needs an eligible professional account and the permissions your connection allows.

Caption: Up to 2,200 characters
Video length: Up to 15 minutes
File size: Up to 300 MB
Account: Instagram Business or Creator

How do I schedule an Instagram Reel with Profaily?

Connect your professional Instagram account, upload a video, write the caption and choose a cover, then pick a time or the next open slot and press Schedule.

Does Profaily edit or resize Reels?

No. Profaily uses your uploaded video as provided. You can change the Reel details, but video editing and resizing are not part of this workflow.

Can I set different Instagram metadata?

Yes. Instagram’s caption and supported Reel options can be set independently from other destinations.

Which Instagram accounts are supported?

Publishing requires an eligible professional account and the permissions available to the Profaily connection.

Can my team approve Instagram videos before they go out?

Yes. An editor sends the video for review, and a producer approves it or asks for changes. Nothing is scheduled until it is approved.

Can I plan Instagram videos from ChatGPT or Claude?

Yes. Connect your assistant to Profaily over MCP and ask it to draft, send for review and schedule Instagram videos. A producer still has to approve them.
