Carousel Studio
Posts and carousels checked while you build
Choose a format and Inkstand states what it will check. Check the deck against your adopted rules before release.
Start
Choosing a format is choosing which rules apply
A carousel includes artwork, a caption, hashtags and image descriptions. A story set includes artwork and image descriptions. Each format states what Inkstand will check before you write.

The bench
The whole deck and its release status
The plate shows the channel, outstanding work and release status. The strip shows word count by frame. Run the rules against the deck before release.
In our view the most powerful oral option in dermatology.

The argument · 5 frames + captionBar height = words on the frame
One deck, one rule set, and a plate that says what is true right now. The frame that breaks a rule keeps the release button out of reach until somebody deals with it.
Layout
Sixty ways to build one frame
Choose from ten layouts and six compositions. Combine them independently for sixty starting points.

This frame is
Cover · Full bleed
Ten layouts, six ways to compose each one. Sixty arrangements of the same words, and nothing in the set is the default.
Type and colour
Six self-hosted typeface pairings
Choose from six self-hosted typeface pairings and eight colourways. Bring your own type family and it joins the list.

Twelve weeks before a routine is worth judging.
Sharp, high-contrast editorial serif.
Typeface pairing
Colourway
Press
Six pairings and eight colourways, all of them set in real type rather than picked from a dropdown of system faces. Upload your own family and it joins them.
Structure
Start from a shape, not a blank deck
Six structural starters cover hooks, one idea per frame, caveats, one image across every frame and a sequence that reads as motion when swiped.
Story
6 frames. A first-person account. Hook, turn, resolution, invitation.
Tips list
5 frames. Teach one thing. Numbered payload in the middle.
Product
4 frames. Show the thing. Screenshots carry the weight.
Big stat
4 frames. One number does the work. Everything else supports it.
Seamless panorama
3 frames. One continuous image across every slide. Reads as a single scene when swiped.
Frame animation
8 frames. Sequential frames that read as motion when swiped quickly. Uses the 20-slide allowance.
Export
The gate at the end, and why people stop dreading it
A rule a machine can settle has to be fixed. A rule only a person can settle takes a written reason, and the reason keeps your name, the date and the exact words it was about. Then it leaves as a PDF or as PNGs.

- The record
- P. Ramanathan · 14 May
Fix it on the frame, or say why publishing over it is fine. Nothing is decided for you.
frame 3 · Any figure needs its source — “8 in 10 people saw an improvement”
Why is publishing this fine? At least eight characters, recorded with your name.
Nothing on this page changes the deck. Release records cannot be edited or deleted.
Nothing is waved through. A rule a machine can settle has to be fixed on the frame; a rule only a person can settle takes a written reason and one of three classes, and the line it writes keeps your name on it for good.
Sign-off
Send it to the person who signs, wherever they are
A link, opened on a phone, by somebody with no account and no seat. One frame at a time, remarks against the frame they are about, and a sign-off at the end bound to what they actually saw.
