Works in Claude, ChatGPT and 11 more AI apps

Post to Instagram with Claude

To post to Instagram with Claude, connect your Instagram business or creator account to RobinReach, then add RobinReach to Claude as a connector at https://robinreach.com/mcp/v1/messages. Claude can then look at your photos, write captions and alt text, and schedule posts, carousels, Reels and Stories at your best times. It can also answer comments and set up Auto DM, so people who comment a keyword get your link in a DM. The same works in ChatGPT and other AI apps, on the Bloom, Thrive and Scale plans.

Scheduled for Friday at 6:30 pm, when your followers are most active. The caption opens with the glaze close up, and each photo has its own alt text. Want me to add a first comment with your hashtags?
