Photoroom has two tools designed especially for creating Instagram Story images: AI Instagram Story and Instagram Story. They both create images that are sized automatically to suit Instagram Stories, but there are important differences, which we explain here.

AI Instagram Story

Instagram AI Story creates a design that:

  • Includes a photo that you upload, such as a product photo

  • Has an AI Background that will change and adapt (redraw) if you add or move foreground layers

  • Already has the correct size and proportions for Instagram Stories.

Use AI Instagram Story if you want to create realistic Instagram Story designs that include your photos.

Instagram Story

With Instagram Story, you enter a description (prompt) and the AI generates an image that:

  • Is created entirely from your description. You do not upload a photo.

  • Is static. It does not redraw if you add or move layers.

  • Already has the correct size and proportions for Instagram Stories.

Use Instagram Story if you want to create more generic Instagram Story designs that don't include your photos. For example, if you just want to post a message, you could create an Instagram Story and use the description to specify the message.
