Just upload your image and watch as it’s automatically reframed or expanded to widescreen. This one-click approach saves time and avoids tedious editing.

Instant Widescreen Conversion

Pixelcut’s AI takes the guesswork out of cropping. Instead of blindly slicing off edges, the tool intelligently decides whether to crop or expand. If simply resizing would cut off something important, the AI will fill the gap with matching content (for example, adding sky or background texture) to fit a 16:9 frame. If cropping works, it focuses on preserving the main subject. Every edit is done automatically, so you end up with a perfectly balanced photo that looks like it was originally shot in widescreen.

Smart Cropping & Expansion

The output is a crisp PNG ready for any use, print, slides or social media. Even if the AI expands the canvas, it maintains clarity so textures and details stay clean. The result is a professional-quality widescreen photo perfect for displaying or sharing. For any use, print or digital, your image will remain sharp and polished.
