Image Expansion example

Image Expansion uses AI outpainting to extend your image beyond its original borders. The engine analyzes the existing image content — style, lighting, colors, and composition — and generates new content that seamlessly continues the scene. Choose from preset expansion ratios (1.5x, 2x, 3x) or custom dimensions. Great for creating wider compositions, adding space for text overlays, or expanding portrait crops.

FAQ

What expansion ratios are available?
1.5x, 2x, and 3x are available as presets. Custom dimensions may also be available depending on the image.
Does the generated content always look seamless?
For most images, yes. Complex or highly detailed edges may occasionally show slight inconsistencies.
