The Task: Help content teams promote themselves more often by reusing the content they already have.

Context

This started as my own task. When I find something inspiring, I want to share it, but rewriting it into short posts takes time I rarely have, while editing an AI draft is quick. Museums, NGOs and small businesses face the same gap: many texts already exist, but turning one into a carousel by hand takes about an hour.

Idea

As a main point of automation I took this bottleneck: I spend a lot of time on writing, but I'm still the owner of the text. So editing and checking still will be my part, and the rest should be automated.

Design

The tool reads the article and its images, summerizes the idea of the pharaghraph in short sentences and matches each card with an image, keeping the article’s order. AI drafts the story, a I edit and approve.

Deliverables

I built the tool as a web app, with no installs and no accounts.

  • Reads any public web page

  • Cards keep the article’s language (left-sided)

  • Non-removable source link on every card

  • Text and background colours for brand style

  • The tool collects no personal data

  • Cards and uploads are deleted an hour after creation

  • Paywalled pages may not work

Use it from desktop or mobile

How it works

  1. Paste a link to an article.

  2. Choose 5 - 12 cards and, if needed, a focus.

  3. Edit the cards:

    1. change layout

    2. swap images or upload additional

    3. set colours of font and background

    4. review the text

  4. Download the cards (by one for mobile or all at once in ZIP for desktop.

  5. Upload them to the instagram stories and enjoy!

P.S. You can reuse the same article with different focus several times.

I tested the first version with a few people outside the museum field. The Focus option came from their feedback.

Result: The tool turns an article into a ready set of cards to post in Instagram Crousel in several minutes, so existing pages can be shared again and again in different angles and without extra writing time.
