Instagram Grid Planner
Plan your Instagram grid layout before posting. Upload as many images as you like, drag tiles to reorder them, and preview the result as your followers will see it on your profile. Export the final arrangement as JSON so you can recreate the order in your scheduler.
How to use
- 1
Upload your images
Drag multiple image files onto the dropzone or click to browse. JPG, PNG and WebP are accepted up to 50 MB each. Add as many as you need.
- 2
Reorder the tiles
Drag any tile to a new position — the grid updates instantly. For precision, hover a tile and use the arrow buttons to nudge it left/right/up/down.
- 3
Preview the profile view
The profile preview shows how your grid will appear to Instagram visitors, with the standard 3-column layout and a sample profile header.
- 4
Export the arrangement
Copy or download the arrangement as JSON. It records each image’s filename, size, position, row, column and optional caption so you can reproduce the layout later.
Common use cases
- Plan a product launch grid so colours and compositions flow from tile to tile.
- Preview how a 9-image mood board will look before you actually publish.
- Hand off a grid arrangement to a teammate or social media manager as JSON.
- Experiment with checkerboard, column, or diagonal patterns before committing.
Limitations
- Images are loaded into your browser only — nothing is uploaded to a server.
- The 3-column grid reflects Instagram’s current mobile and web layout, but the platform occasionally tweaks spacing and aspect ratios.
- The exported JSON does not contain the images themselves — only filenames, sizes and ordering. Keep your source files alongside the JSON.
- Captions you add here are for your own planning reference; they are not the captions you would post on Instagram (those have a 2,200 character limit each).
