Drag the handles to crop, or snap to a preset like 1:1, 4:3, 16:9 or 9:16. A rule-of-thirds grid helps you frame it — all in your browser, no upload.
Add one or many — PNG, JPG & WebP. Or paste with ⌘/Ctrl + V
Drag the corner handles or type an exact width and height, lock the box to 1:1, 4:3, 16:9, 9:16 or the original ratio, and line the shot up on the rule-of-thirds grid. Click Apply crop and the pixels outside the box are discarded — the rest stay untouched, with nothing uploaded.
Clean the Gemini sparkle, then finish the job — crop, resize, convert and adjust without uploading a single pixel.
Reverse-alpha math restores the true pixels under the Gemini logo — no blur, no AI guesswork.
Crop to any aspect ratio with draggable handles, then resize to exact pixels or quick scales.
Export to PNG, JPG or WebP with a quality slider and a live file-size estimate.
Every tool runs locally with undo/redo. Nothing is uploaded — it even works offline.
Pick a ratio, frame it, apply.
Choose 1:1, 4:3, 16:9, 9:16, Original or Free — or a social preset like Instagram Square 1080×1080 or YouTube Thumbnail 1280×720.
Drag the handles and move the box; the dimmed surround and rule-of-thirds grid show exactly what stays. Need precision? Type exact pixel values into the W and H fields.
Click Apply crop, then download as PNG, JPG, WebP or AVIF — undo brings the full image back anytime.
Square 1:1 for feeds, 4:5-style portrait framing, or 9:16 for Stories, Reels and TikTok — using the built-in platform presets.
Snap to 16:9 (1280×720) so YouTube doesn't crop your title text or faces unpredictably.
Crop to a tight 1:1 around a face, then pass it to the circle-crop tool for a finished avatar.
Trim browser chrome, taskbars and stray desktop edges out of screenshots before sharing them.
Cut photos to clean 4:3 or square ratios that fit frames, reports and slide layouts without stretching.
Crop wide strips for X headers (1500×500), Facebook covers and LinkedIn banners with the exact preset.
Everything about cropping images with PixKit.
PixKit crops images for free in your browser. Drag the corner handles for a custom crop, or lock to a preset aspect ratio for social posts, thumbnails, and profile pictures. A rule-of-thirds overlay and a dimmed surround make precise framing easy.
Crop to 1:1 (square), 4:3, 16:9, 9:16 (vertical/Stories), the original ratio, or freely. Below the ratios sit per-platform social presets — Instagram feed and Stories, YouTube thumbnails (1280×720), Facebook covers, X posts and headers, LinkedIn and TikTok — so the crop box snaps to the exact shape the platform expects.
The W and H fields show the crop box's exact size in image pixels and accept typed values, so you can cut precisely 800×418 out of a screenshot instead of eyeballing it. Drag the box to reposition, use the rule-of-thirds lines to place your subject, then hit Apply crop — or Reset to start over.
Cropping discards the pixels outside the box and leaves every remaining pixel untouched — there's no re-compression until you choose an export format yourself. Everything runs locally with undo/redo, and your photos are never uploaded.
