Built for Reels
Instagram Reels generator
Reels are watched on mute and judged in a second and a half. Vidsy builds for both: a visual hook on frame one, captions that carry the whole message, and a clean 1080×1920 file with nobody else’s watermark on it.
No card required · 20 free tokens after you verify your email
- Captions carry the video on mute — the default state for Reels
- Clean 1080×1920 export with no third-party branding
- Seven viral templates, including the fake-texting format Reels favours
- A royalty-free music library, or your own audio on a separate track
Design for the muted feed
Most Reels are seen before they are heard. If the message lives only in the voiceover, the scroll wins. Vidsy burns word-synced captions into every frame, so the video reads as text and plays as video.
Caption styling is yours: font, size, colour, outline, shadow, background pill and vertical position, with five presets — classic, outline, neon, shadow and alert — as starting points.
Publishing to Reels, honestly
Vidsy publishes directly to YouTube and TikTok. Instagram is not connected for automatic posting yet — for Reels you download the finished file and upload it yourself, which takes about as long as picking a cover frame.
We would rather say that plainly than let you discover it after building a workflow around it. Everything else in the pipeline — script, voice, footage, captions, effects, render — is identical to the platforms we do publish to.
Templates that fit the Reels feed
Reels rewards formats the audience already recognises. Vidsy ships seven of them as one-click overlays:
- Fake texting — an iMessage, WhatsApp or Instagram-style chat playing over the video, optionally read aloud by different voices
- Reddit / AITA post — a post card at the start, narrated by the voiceover
- Quiz with countdown — question, timer, answer reveal
- Top-N list — numbered captions synced to the script
- POV caption — one large caption held over the whole video
- Breaking news — a lower-third news banner
- Replying to @user — the comment-reply intro card
Text-only templates cost nothing. Only reading a chat aloud consumes tokens, and only for the lines whose text actually changed.
Frequently asked questions
Can Vidsy post to Instagram automatically?
Not yet. Auto-publishing is live for YouTube and TikTok. For Reels you download the rendered MP4 and upload it through Instagram.
What aspect ratio and resolution do I get?
Vertical 9:16 at 720×1280 or 1080×1920. For Reels, 1080p is worth the three extra tokens.
Is the music licensed for commercial use?
The built-in library is royalty-free and cleared for commercial use. You can also upload your own audio, in which case the licence is yours to hold.
Can I make the captions match my brand?
Yes — font, size, colour, outline, shadow, background and position are all editable, and the change previews live in the editor.
