Preview a post before it goes live
Enter a username, an optional profile picture and the post text, and see a realistic mockup of how it will look on the platform's actual feed layout — before publishing anything. It is a preview tool, not a publishing tool: nothing is posted anywhere, and it does not connect to any account.
Why a preview catches things the raw text does not
- Line wrapping and truncation. Text that looks fine in a plain editor can wrap awkwardly or get cut off with a "see more" link once laid out in the platform's actual feed width.
- Character-heavy content. Emoji, hashtags and @mentions can visually crowd a post in ways that are hard to judge from raw text alone.
- Image and text balance. Seeing a profile picture and post together shows whether the combination actually reads well, rather than imagining it.
What this is genuinely useful for
- Drafting and reviewing content with a team before it goes live, without needing to actually post a draft somewhere and delete it.
- Mockups for presentations or client work, showing what a proposed post would look like without it existing publicly.
- Screenshots for tutorials or examples that need to show a realistic-looking post without it being real.
What it is not
It has no connection to any real account or platform API — it cannot check a real username's availability, verify a real avatar, or actually publish anything. Anything generated here is a visual mockup only, and using it to impersonate a real account or fabricate a screenshot presented as genuine is a misuse of the tool, not what it is built for.
Frequently asked questions
Does this post anything to a real account?
No — it has no connection to any platform's API or your actual account. It only renders a visual mockup locally.
Can I use a real person's username to make a fake screenshot?
The tool doesn't prevent it technically, but doing so to fabricate a screenshot presented as genuine is a misuse — this is built for drafting and previewing your own content, not impersonation.
Why doesn't my mockup match the platform exactly?
Platforms update their layouts periodically, and the mockup approximates a common recent layout rather than tracking every live design change in real time.
Can I download the mockup as an image?
Check the tool's export option — most mockup previews of this kind support saving the rendered result as an image file.
Does this check hashtags or character limits for the real platform?
It doesn't enforce a platform's actual character limits or validate hashtag rules — check the current limits on the real platform separately before posting.
Is anything I type here sent anywhere?
No. The mockup is rendered entirely in your browser.
