Gemini
Gemini can run your Instagram for you through Shuffle.
Your agent can ask Shuffle for Reels, carousels and stories, post them when you say so, answer your DMs and comments in your voice, and tell you which posts are working.
37K+ people already use Shuffle.
You can set this up in about a minute.
A Shuffle page opens where you sign in with your phone and tap Approve, and nothing touches your accounts until you do. Then ask Gemini to connect your Instagram account, and Shuffle gives it a link you open on your phone to sign in to Instagram.
Start by adding Shuffle to your agent.
In Gemini on the web, go to Settings and then Connected Apps, add a custom app, and paste this link in.

You can ask Gemini in your own words and Shuffle handles the rest.
Gemini calls Shuffle for you, so your posts come from the same brain that makes Shuffle’s own, and Gemini tells you what went out.

People usually ask a few things about Gemini and Instagram.
Can Gemini post to Instagram?
Gemini can once you add Shuffle’s connector. In Gemini on the web, go to Settings and then Connected Apps, add a custom app, and paste in Shuffle’s connector link. A Shuffle page opens where you sign in with your phone and tap Approve, and nothing touches your accounts until you do. Then ask Gemini to connect your Instagram account, and Shuffle gives it a link you open on your phone to sign in to Instagram.
Will Gemini post without asking me?
It won’t, because your first posts wait for your OK, and a series you set up can wait for your OK on every piece too.
Can Shuffle make the Instagram Reels too?
Yes. Shuffle makes the Reel itself, with the video, captions and sound, then posts it when you say so. Your agent only has to ask for it.
Does Instagram have its own MCP?
Instagram doesn’t offer an MCP server for posting. Shuffle’s connector posts for you once you sign in to Instagram to allow it, so you never hand your password to an agent.
Does it work with a personal Instagram account?
It works with business and creator accounts, which is what Instagram lets apps post to, and you can switch a personal account over in about a minute.
Will Shuffle answer my messages without asking me first?
Only once you turn replies on, and if Shuffle isn’t sure how to answer someone it holds the reply and asks you first.
Why don’t I see custom apps in Gemini?
Google’s still turning custom apps on country by country, so if you don’t have them yet, use Shuffle from another agent or on the web.
How much does it cost to use Shuffle?
You pay credits for each picture or video Shuffle makes, you’ll see the price first, and you’re never charged for one it couldn’t make.
