Streampost

Instagram scheduler for Germany — plan Reels, carousels and Stories

Instagram rewards consistency more sharply than any other platform: pause for two weeks and your reach starts over. With Streampost you produce in batches and let posts go out across the week automatically — Reels, carousels and Stories included.

What you can schedule

  • Reels

    Vertical 9:16, up to 90 seconds. You pick the cover frame, so your profile grid stays tidy instead of showing a random freeze-frame.

  • Carousel

    Up to 20 images or videos per post. Great for tutorials and before/after sequences — carousels get a second chance because Instagram re-serves them using the second card.

  • Feed post

    Best at 4:5 rather than square: the taller format takes up noticeably more screen space and gets scrolled past less often.

  • Stories

    Visible for 24 hours, 9:16. Useful alongside a feed post — scheduled rather than spontaneous, so something still runs on busy days.

What Streampost handles here

  • Captions up to 2,200 characters — but the first 125 decide

    Instagram truncates captions in the feed after roughly 125 characters. The editor shows that line live, so your hook lands before the cut-off rather than behind it.

  • Hashtags without cluttering the caption

    Up to 30 hashtags are allowed, but nobody wants to read them under your text. Save your sets once and post them automatically as the first comment.

  • AI variants instead of a blank field

    From one core idea the AI drafts several caption variants in your tone of voice — written in German, not translated from English.

  • Line breaks that survive

    Instagram collapses normal paragraph breaks in the caption field. Streampost formats them so your spacing actually shows up in the app.

How it works

  1. 1

    Connect your Instagram account

    You need a Business or Creator account — only those may publish automatically under the Instagram API. Switching takes two minutes in the app and is free.

  2. 2

    Produce in batches

    Upload your media, write the captions or let the AI suggest variants, then set your hashtag set and cover frame.

  3. 3

    Set slots and let it run

    Drag posts onto your preferred times in the calendar. Streampost publishes automatically — no push notification for you to confirm by hand.

The most common reason Instagram profiles go quiet is not a lack of ideas — it is the break in the workflow. You have the photos but not the headspace for the caption; you have the caption but no time to post. Scheduling separates those two moments cleanly: produce on Sunday, publish across the week.

For freelancers and creators in the DACH region there is a second point: data protection. Streampost runs on EU infrastructure with servers in Frankfurt, and billing is in euros with a proper invoice including VAT. That sounds like a detail until the first time you have to explain it to someone.

Unlike tools that charge per connected channel, Streampost charges one price for all of them. Add TikTok, LinkedIn or Pinterest to Instagram later and your workload grows — your bill does not.

Frequently asked questions

Can Streampost really publish to Instagram automatically?

Yes. Feed posts, Reels, carousels and Stories are published through the official Instagram API — no notification for you to confirm on your phone. A Business or Creator account is required.

Do I need a Business account?

Yes. Instagram only permits automatic publishing for Business and Creator accounts. Switching is free and takes a few minutes in the Instagram settings. A private account cannot be connected.

How many hashtags can I use?

Instagram allows up to 30 hashtags per post. You can put them in the caption or have them posted automatically as the first comment, which keeps the caption readable.

Can I schedule Stories?

Yes, Stories can be scheduled like feed posts. They go live at the scheduled time and stay visible for the usual 24 hours.

Where is my data stored?

On EU servers in Frankfurt. Your uploaded images and videos are stored in EU data centres, and billing runs in euros with a German invoice.

What happens after the 14 days?

You pick a plan or the account pauses — there is no permanent free tier and nothing is charged without your consent. No credit card is needed for the trial.
