Cora

Cora is where your feed gets decided before it gets posted. Build the grid, try more than one version of it, and carry each post through to the moment you publish β on the account you already have. TRY MORE THAN ONE FEED Not sure which post goes where? Save the layout and try another. Keep several versions and switch between them in a tap, pull a post out of one without touching the others, and when one of them is clearly right, apply it to your grid in a tap. Change your mind again and undo it. SEE YOUR REAL GRID, THEN CHANGE IT Your planned posts sit next to your real ones, in a profile preview that matches what visitors actually see. Drag to reorder. Hold a slot with an empty card. Try a cover. Change your mind. Nothing moves on Instagram until you say so. WORKS WITH THE ACCOUNT YOU ALREADY HAVE Personal, Creator or Business β Cora shows your real grid either way. A Creator or Business account connects in a couple of taps. A personal account needs no switching: type your handle, sign in to Instagram once, and your grid appears. Disconnect at any time. A PLAN THAT SURVIVES THE WEEK A month at a glance, or a list of what is next. Give a post a day and a time and Cora holds it β layout, caption, media, all ready. When the moment comes it tells you, copies the caption, and opens Instagram. Posting is a paste and a tap. Miss one and it waits for you instead of quietly disappearing. PLAN STORIES THAT DON'T EXPIRE Build a story as a sequence of frames β photos, text, stickers, and a private note to yourself on each one that nobody else ever sees. Reorder them. Play the whole thing through to feel the pacing. Unlike drafts inside Instagram, a Cora storyboard is still there next week. When it is time, Cora saves every frame to your camera roll and hands you the captions one at a time. TRENDS FROM REAL CREATORS Real posts by real creators: the photos or video they made, who made them, and a button that opens their Instagram. Small on purpose β it grows as we find work worth showing. CORA FREE AND CORA PRO Cora Free includes everything above, with limits: 12 dated posts at a time, two grid versions, two storyboards in progress and one Instagram account. Cora Pro lifts the limits: every post dated as far ahead as you plan, every version of your grid, every account in one place, as many storyboards as you need, and more AI help with captions. Pro is a monthly or yearly subscription, paid through your Apple ID. The yearly plan starts with a 7-day free trial for new subscribers. It renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the current period ends; manage or cancel it in your App Store account settings.
