The Edits app is getting an AI assistant that uses data from the account on the Instagram platform to explain content performance and suggest further content creation. Use is free up to a certain limit; a Meta One subscription is meant to allow for higher usage.

The Instagram platform has announced the addition of an AI creative assistant to the standalone Edits app. The tool uses data from the user's account, including the number of likes, views, viewer retention, and shares. Creators can ask why one video succeeded and another did not, or which content resonated most with their audience. According to the Instagram platform, the assistant can recognize patterns over time and offer recommendations beyond the metrics themselves.

The assistant is also meant to suggest topics, ways to hook viewers, captions and video scripts, and answer questions about trends or popular audio tracks. Use is free up to a certain limit. According to the Meta company, a Meta One subscription will allow for higher usage; the specific limit and the subscription price are not stated.

What changed

Why it matters

Creators can combine evaluating past videos with planning future content in a single app. Marketing teams gain a tool for analyzing audience reactions and preparing posts. With intensive use, however, they must reckon with limits on free access and the offer of a paid subscription for higher usage.

Two audiences, two different impacts

What this means

01

For individuals

When planning the next video, a creator can ask for an explanation of differences in their posts' performance and for suggestions based on their own account's data.

What to do In the Edits app, ask the assistant to compare two of your own videos with different performance.
