Big news! You can now generate and manage Carousel Posts directly from the platform. Whether you’re showcasing tips, telling a story, or highlighting products, carousels are a powerful format. Platforms like Instagram, LinkedIn, Threads and Facebook all support carousel-style posts, and audiences love them. They encourage longer viewing times, better interaction, and higher engagement. Let’s dive into how to use carousel posts within Tufa, and why they’re important.

Generate Carousel Posts with AI Credits
Use your credits to create a full carousel post. Decide if you’d like the post to be image-centric, image-supplementary, or purely infographic. Start from scratch with a topic or prompt, and the AI will generate a full carousel with multiple slides, captions, and visuals. It’s perfect for:
Telling a visual story across multiple slides
Sharing step-by-step tutorials or tips
Highlighting product features or benefits
Promoting a series of blog posts or services
Creating mini-campaigns within a single post
Each slide is auto-generated with a logical flow, strong visuals, and messaging aligned to your audience.
Convert Any Post or Story into a Carousel or Series
Already created a static post or story but want to expand on the message? You can now convert any existing post into a carousel. The system keeps your original post and lets you add additional slides, captions, or design elements.
This is great when:
You realize your post could be more powerful if you broke it up visually
You want to repurpose high-performing content into something more dynamic
You’re re-sharing an idea in a fresh, swipeable format

Add or remove slides anytime. You can include up to 10 slides per carousel.
