01Question hook

Do your gums bleed when you floss? You're not alone. Bleeding gums are often asking for more care, not less. Claire, our hygienist, says to keep flossing gently, once a day, for two weeks. Still bleeding after that? Book a check-up and we'll take a look. When did you last floss: today, this week, or can't remember? #gumhealth #flossing #dentalhygienist #bristoldentist #harbourdental

02Short story

Claire hears this every week: "My gums bleed, so I stopped flossing." Her answer is always the same. Keep going, gently, once a day. Gums that bleed usually need more care. Still bleeding after two weeks? That's the time to book a check-up. Which dental habit do you find hardest to keep? #gumhealth #flossingtips #dentalcare #bristol #harbourdental

How it works

Three steps to a caption you can post.

Each caption opens with a different first line, so you can pick the one that sounds like you.

1

Describe the post

Say what the picture or Reel shows and who it is for. One or two sentences is enough.

2

Pick the voice

Choose a tone and a length, and switch hashtags or a closing question on or off.

3

Copy the one you like

Copy keeps the line breaks. Not quite right? Try another angle for three new openings.

How Instagram shows a caption

What shows before "more".

In the feed, people see your name, the first line or two and "more". The generator writes every caption around that cut.

2,200characters at most in one caption
About 125characters show before "more" in the feed
5hashtags at most on a post or Reel, since December 2025
30characters at most in a username, which sits before the caption

General guidance

Captions that get replies.

Six habits that help people answer a post. They are general guidance for business accounts, not rules, and the best test is your own comments.

01

Put the point in the first line

The feed cuts a caption at about 125 characters. Say what the post is about before the cut.

Clinic"Do your gums bleed when you floss?" tells people what they will learn.
02

Ask one question with a short answer

A question people can answer in a word or two gets replies. Two questions in one caption split them.

Café"Oat or whole milk in your flat white?"
03

Say who the post is for

Name the person in the first lines, so the right people stop and the rest scroll on.

Salon"For anyone growing out a fringe this spring."
04

Break long text into short lines

Short lines with a blank line between them are easier to read on a phone than one block.

StudioThree steps, one per line, with a blank line before the question.
05

Keep hashtags to five, and exact

Instagram counts at most five per post. Describe the topic, the place and your name.

Clinic#gumhealth #flossing #dentalhygienist #bristoldentist #harbourdental
06

Give one next step

End with one thing to do: answer, save, or book. One step is easier to act on than three.

Shop"Save this for your next order." or "Book from the link in our bio."

Questions

Questions about the caption generator.

Short answers on limits, privacy and what Instagram allows.

Is the caption generator free?
Yes, with no sign-up. Each write gives three captions, and you can write up to 20 times a day across our writing tools.
Do you keep what I type?
Your text is not kept in any log. So that the same request answers at once, the captions for the same words and settings are kept for 7 days under a code made from them, not under your name.
How long can an Instagram caption be?
Up to 2,200 characters. The feed shows about the first 125 before "more", so the first line carries the post. Each caption shows its count.
How many hashtags should I use?
Instagram counts at most 5 hashtags on a post or Reel, since December 2025. The generator adds up to 5, or none if you switch hashtags off.
Will the line breaks stay when I paste?
Yes. Copy keeps every line break and blank line exactly as shown, so the caption pastes into Instagram the way you see it here.
Which languages can it write in?
English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Italian, Dutch, Indonesian, Turkish, Arabic and Hindi. Pick one from the Language list before you write.
What will it not write?
Captions about buying followers, pretending to be someone else or reaching private accounts. It writes for your own posts only.

Captions written. Now grow the account.

ProfileScan is the Instagram growth tool: an assistant that knows your account, tells you what to post and why, and drafts your replies. It opens soon.
