About this template
This template gives you a social media post previewer that shows exactly how your content will appear on Instagram, LinkedIn, X, and Facebook. Write your text in a single editor, upload images or videos, and see live previews update in real time across all four platforms.
The editor includes format presets for different aspect ratios — square (1:1), vertical (4:5), landscape (16:9), and story/reel (9:16) — with platform-specific dimensions so you know exactly how your visuals will crop. Character counters show you platform limits (280 for X, 2200 for Instagram, 3000 for LinkedIn, 63206 for Facebook) and warn you before you go over.
PinPost includes an AI-powered enhance button that suggests improved versions of your text, so you can refine your copy without leaving the editor. Drafts are saved to the cloud automatically, so you can return to unfinished posts later.
Authentication is built in — users sign up with email and Google, verify their email, and get access to their editor. Profile setup lets you add a display name, handle, and avatar, which appear in the platform previews for a realistic look.
Best Use Cases

Copy Refinement With AI
Use the built-in AI enhance feature to get alternative versions of your text. Pick the suggestion that fits your voice and platform, then see the preview update instantly.
