Expand image AI — rebuild beyond the crop

It generates new image area outside the original frame, continuing the existing scene. Unlike stretching, nothing in the original is distorted — the photograph stays intact and new content is built around it.

Comfortably up to roughly the original image area again. Beyond that, the generated portion starts to dominate and repeated texture becomes noticeable. Expanding in two smaller passes usually beats one large one.

Partly, and with caution. Anim AI will generate a plausible continuation rather than the real thing, so a cut-off body may return with wrong clothing or proportions. Faces at the edge are the least reliable case.

Yes. Pick a target ratio like 16:9 and Anim AI fills the sides to match the scene, which avoids both cropping the subject and adding black letterbox bars. This is the most common use of the feature.

No. The original pixels are preserved exactly and new content is generated only outside them, so you can always crop back to the original frame if you do not like the expansion.

Comfortably up to roughly the original image area again. Past that the generated portion starts to dominate and repeated texture becomes noticeable. Two smaller passes usually beat one large one, since each pass has more real image to reason from.

It continues what is already visible rather than adding new subjects, so an empty beach stays empty. Partial figures at the edge are the exception: a body cut off by the crop may be completed with invented clothing, so check those closely.
