A LarryLoop alternative for Instagram, for $49 once.
LarryLoop is an online loop that writes TikTok and Instagram slideshows for your app, posts them on a schedule, tracks which posts bring revenue through Stripe or RevenueCat, and makes more of the winners. Plans run from $39 to $249 a month. Slide-Easy is a Mac app that makes Instagram Reels, carousels and stories from your App Store reviews, for $49 once.
The short answer
- Choose LarryLoop if TikTok matters to you, you want to see revenue per post from Stripe or RevenueCat, or you don't have an Apple silicon Mac.
- Choose Slide-Easy if Instagram is your channel, you want Reels as well as carousels, you want to approve posts before they go out, and you'd rather pay once.

Where is LarryLoop better?
- Revenue tracking. It connects Stripe and RevenueCat to show which posts brought paying users. Slide-Easy measures Instagram reach and engagement, not revenue.
- TikTok and Instagram together. One loop posts to both, with TikTok drafts if you want to add a sound by hand.
- Hands-off by design. Its pitch is one button: it generates, posts and iterates without a review step.
- Any computer. It runs in the browser.
Where does Slide-Easy differ?
- One price. $49 once, with no post cap. LarryLoop Starter is $468 a year at list price for 30 posts a month.
- Reels, not just slideshows. Slide-Easy makes voiced video Reels and stories as well as carousels.
- You approve first. Posts wait for your OK unless you switch Autopilot on (it's off by default).
- Built from your reviews. It reads your App Store reviews, and every post is labeled as AI.
- Runs on your Mac. Nothing is generated in the cloud; the Mac requirement below is the trade.
What's the catch with running on a Mac?
Your Mac does the work, so Slide-Easy needs an Apple silicon Mac (M1 or newer), macOS 15 or later, 16 GB of memory, and a one-time download of about 14 GB of models. That rules out Windows, Intel Macs and 8 GB Macs. The Mac is busy while it works: a finished post takes about 185 seconds on an M4 Pro, so the first week of posts arrives in about 10 to 30 minutes and 30 posts take about 1½ hours. In return there's no cloud rendering and no server bill to pass on, which is why it can cost $49 once.
No Mac that fits, or no time? I also make 7 posts a week for your app as a done-for-you service at $299 a month.
