Why it is written this way
Tap a block to see its paragraph
I need help writing an Instagram bio. My account is a {{account profile type}}. The essential keywords to include are {{core target keyword}}, and the primary goal is for visitors to {{desired action}}.
Please generate 3 distinct bio options with different angles. Under each option, add a one-line explanation of the specific situation or branding style it fits best.
Keep each bio to a maximum of 4 lines, with each line serving a single purpose: Line 1 states what the account is, Line 2 defines who it's for, Line 3 highlights a unique feature or credibility point, and Line 4 provides a clear Call to Action (CTA). Keep the total length under 150 characters (including spaces), and include the exact character count next to each option.
Use clean line breaks instead of long continuous sentences. Limit emojis to at most 1 per line and include no more than 2 hashtags in total. Do not fabricate any specific numbers that I haven't provided (such as years of experience, awards, class duration, or number of students).

If you simply ask an AI to write an Instagram bio, it typically generates generic narrative self-introductions like "A warm studio creating ceramics with love." While pleasant to read, multi-line paragraphs get cut off on mobile screens, leaving visitors clueless about what you actually offer. An Instagram bio isn't an essay to read; it's a visual card scanned in under 3 seconds.

This is why the context section includes both the account type and the desired action. The final line of a bio functions as a prompt for the link button—without a defined goal, it defaults to vague sign-offs like "Hope you enjoy our page!" Specifying core keywords separately ensures search-friendly terms are integrated rather than just flowery brand slogans.
The format section assigns a dedicated role to each line. Assigning distinct functions to the four lines prevents repetitive phrasing and produces clean line breaks ready for copy-pasting. Displaying the character count next to each candidate allows for quick validation.
The constraints on emojis and hashtags prevent the bio from looking cluttered. Too many emojis overpower the short text. Restricting hallucinated stats (like years of experience or student counts) ensures the bio remains accurate and trustworthy, avoiding unverified claims that are tedious to edit out later.
Providing 3 distinct options enables iterative refinement, allowing you to mix and match (e.g., "Replace line 3 of Option 1 with line 3 of Option 2").

Compared with a bad example
Write an Instagram bio for me. It's a pottery studio.
Generates a generic 2-3 sentence paragraph without line breaks, often exceeding the 150-character limit. Crucial details like location or booking instructions are missing, leaving only vague marketing fluff. Since only one generic option is provided, you have to restart the prompt from scratch if you dislike it.
Variations
When refreshing an existing bio
Existing bios often have solid phrases worth keeping. This prompt audits the current bio and refines the structure without discarding everything.
Show prompt
I want to audit and revamp my current Instagram bio. My account is a {{account profile type}}, and my goal is to get visitors to {{desired action}}.
Before drafting a new version, please analyze my profile: ① Is it instantly clear what this account offers within 3 seconds? ② Does the first line work effectively even if the rest gets cut off? ③ What essential information is missing? After the review, provide an optimized version that preserves strong existing phrases while restructuring the line-by-line layout.
When prioritizing Instagram SEO & search discoverability
Ideal for local businesses or niche service providers that rely heavily on organic search and discovery on Instagram.
Show prompt
Please optimize the bio for a {{account profile type}} specifically for Instagram Search (SEO). Naturally integrate {{core target keyword}} into the primary name field and the first line of the bio. First, list 5 search terms potential followers or clients would actually type into Instagram search, then pick the top 2 to include in the bio.
Blend the keywords seamlessly into natural sentences rather than listing them as tags. Keep the entire bio strictly under 150 characters.
Model notes
AI models cannot count characters with 100% precision. After receiving the output, manually verify the character count. If it exceeds 150 characters, prompt: "Remove the third line and trim this to strictly under 150 characters."

If line breaks disappear, reply: "Please output again with explicit line breaks preserved for easy copy-pasting."
