US residents over 18 can preview effects on their photos; submitted filters must pass a safety review.

Instagram launched Effect Builder, which creates custom Story filters from text prompts and optional style-reference images. Users can upload photos to preview effects, request changes in follow-up prompts, or let Instagram’s AI rewrite the prompt. Submitted effects must pass a safety review before other people can use them in Stories, with a link back to the creator’s profile. The launch follows last week’s expansion of the Edits app to macOS.

Key facts
  • The feature is available now to US residents over 18.
  • Users can attach style reference images to the prompt.
  • Approved effects appear in Instagram Stories for anyone to use.
  • Each use of an effect links back to the creator’s profile.
