Frequently asked questions about Instagram Caption

How can I use AI to generate Instagram captions?

AI makes generating unique caption ideas fast and easy. 

Try a tool like QuillBot’s free AI caption generator—just describe the type of caption you want, and it will generate a list of ideas that you can refine or copy-paste straight into Instagram.

What is the Instagram caption limit?

The Instagram caption limit is 2200 characters (roughly 300–500 words), but only the first 80–100 characters are visible in the main feed, which is about 15 words on average. Therefore, the most important information should be in the first 10–15 words. 

Writing concise captions can be time consuming, but with QuillBot’s free AI Instagram caption generator, it only takes a few seconds.

• Start with “Congratulations, [Name + Name].
• Express your excitement for the couple’s engagement.
• Add a personal touch. Mention something unique about the couple or your relationship with them.
