About the Instagram Reel Maker
The Instagram Reel Maker adds your own intro and outro bumpers to any video in one step. Save your bumpers once — a logo sting, title card or end-screen call to action, as a video or an image — then for every new reel just drop in the clip, add music if you want, and click Make reel. It renders a 9:16 Reel, 4:5 post or square video with optional fades and a blurred-background fit, then lets you share it straight to Instagram from your phone or download the MP4.

How to use the Instagram Reel Maker
- Sign in with Google (free) so your bumpers can be saved to your account.

- Choose your video, and optionally add music to play over the whole reel or just your clip.
- Pick Reel (9:16), Post (4:5) or Square, and Fit + blur or Fill. Press Preview to check it.
- Click Make reel, then Share to Instagram on your phone, or download the MP4 and post it.
- Post for several accounts? Save your bumpers and settings as a template for each one and switch with a click.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Instagram Reel Maker free?
Yes. Instagram Reel Maker is completely free with no sign-up, no usage limits and no watermarks.
Is my data private?
Your video and music never leave your device — the reel is assembled and recorded by your browser. Bumpers you save are stored privately in your account (Cloudflare R2 storage, metadata in Supabase) and can be deleted any time; Delete my data removes them all.
What is a bumper on a reel?
A bumper is a short branded clip at the start or end of a video — an intro with your logo or hook, or an outro with a call to action like “Follow for more”. Using the same bumpers on every reel makes your content instantly recognisable.
Can it post straight to Instagram?
On a phone, Share to Instagram opens the share sheet with your finished reel attached — choose Instagram, then Reels, Post or Story. Instagram doesn’t let websites post for you, so on a computer you download the MP4 and upload it with + Create on instagram.com. Your caption is copied so you can paste it in.
Is my video uploaded?
No. Your video and music are combined right in your browser. Only the bumpers you choose to save are stored, privately, in your account so you can reuse them.
Why does making a reel take as long as the video?
The reel is recorded in real time while it plays in your browser, so a 30-second reel takes about 30 seconds. Keep the tab in front while it renders. Chrome, Edge and Safari save MP4, which Instagram accepts.
Can I use different bumpers for different Instagram accounts?
Yes. Save each setup as a template — its intro, outro, format, fit and caption — and name it after the account, like @mybrand. Switch templates with one click; while a template is selected, any change you make is saved into it.
How long can a reel be?
Instagram Reels can be up to 3 minutes long. The Reel Maker shows the total length of your intro, video and outro before you make it.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes. Toolbench runs in any modern browser on desktop, tablet or phone — there is nothing to install.
