Vertical reframe for TikTok covers, Instagram Stories, and Reels.
Vertical reframe for TikTok covers, Instagram Stories, and Reels. Upload a photo, the canvas is pre-set to 9:16, and the ai expand image tool only extends the outside of the frame so the original subject stays untouched. Add a direction when the edges have cut-off details you want it to continue.

About expanding to 9:16
Why use an ai expand image tool for 9:16 instead of cropping?
Cropping to 9:16 removes pixels and often clips the subject. This ai expand image tool adds new pixels around the original — the model continues the background, lighting, and perspective so the subject stays whole.
How long does it take to expand a photo to 9:16?
About 30 seconds end to end. Vision analysis ~3s, prompt composition ~2s, expansion ~25s. Each finished photo uses 1 credit.
Will uncrop ai invent fake content in the new area?
The agent continues what is already there — sky, background, wall, or floor — not new prominent objects. Busy or cluttered edges benefit from a short prompt hint such as "continue the sky and background naturally."
Can I use the expanded photo commercially?
Yes — you own the rights to photos you generate. Common uses include TikTok covers, Instagram Stories, YouTube thumbnails, and X headers.
