How to design a carousel's slides in your brand

On this page

A carousel from the content calendar arrives with each slide’s text already written: title, short text, highlighted words and a template (cover, content, list or closing). Design slides (Diseñar diapositivas) draws them in your own style —your colours, your fonts, your logo and your @handle— in Instagram’s 4:5 format, and makes them the post’s images, in order.

Before you start

  • The slides are dressed in your brand kit. If you don’t have one yet, SarAI builds it with you in a few minutes.
  • Text in your brand costs no credits. Only AI images cost: 4 credits each, and the cost is shown before you generate.

Steps

  1. Open the post in Social Media → Campaigns (Redes Sociales → Campañas). Under Slides (Diapositivas) you see the chosen style and the first slides already drawn in it.

    The post's slides

  2. Press Design slides (Diseñar diapositivas).

  3. Choose the style for the whole carousel:

    • Text (brand) (Texto (marca)) — paper, logo and a headline in your fonts. 0 credits.
    • Infographic (Infografía) — highlighted words in pills, your brand shapes and an illustration on the cover (uploaded = 0; AI = 4 credits).
    • Photo + text (Foto + texto) — a photo with a veil in your colour and the headline centred. The background is chosen per slide: your photo, an AI photo or your brand colour.
    • AI photo (Foto IA) — one AI photo per slide, with no text on it. 4 credits per slide.

    Slide style

  4. Tap a slide in the strip to edit it, and choose its template: Cover, Content, List or Closing CTA.

  5. Write the title and the text. Write **like this** to make a word bold. Under Highlighted words type a word from the title and press Enter; tap its dot to change its colour.

  6. Check the preview and the cost. The preview is the same image that gets published; if it says Trim the text: it doesn’t fit, shorten it.

    Preview and cost

  7. Press Generate slides (Generar diapositivas). In a few seconds they become the post’s images, in the order of the strip.

  8. Press Back to the post (Volver a la publicación). The Instagram preview shows the carousel as it will go out.

To keep your changes without drawing anything, press Save draft (Guardar borrador).

Tips

  • The cover carries the post’s hook: it is what stops the scroll. You can change it, but keep it short.
  • Generating again does not charge again for an AI photo or illustration that already exists for the same description: fixing a typo is free.
  • When you publish or schedule, Instagram and Facebook receive these slides as a carousel. See how to publish content.
