Explode one image into nine tiles for a reveal-style post.
Burst Grid
Turn one image into reveal posts, story slices, and carousel cuts.
This page is for posts that need behavior, not just a plain split. Upload once, choose the cut style, and export the full set in the order you want people to swipe through.
- Burst 3x3, story slices, and carousel strips
- Draw your own boxes when the layout is irregular
- Stronger burst animation with optional sound
The same upload can turn into a burst grid, a long swipe story, or a left-to-right carousel strip.
Animated tutorial
Drop one image. Pick the behavior. Export the swipe.
- 1. Start with one image Upload your own file or run the sample. The page will preview the source right away.
- 2. Choose the cut behavior Pick a burst, a story slice, a reveal, a carousel strip, motion frames, or draw your own boxes.
- 3. Export the full set Download the numbered files and post them in order.
Burst mode uses the strongest motion. The other modes keep the same workflow but change how the files are prepared.
Cut styles
Use the style that changes how people move through the post.
Turn a tall layout into top-to-bottom reading slides.
Split a wide idea into left-to-right swipe panels.
Draw your own boxes when the layout is irregular.
Create staggered cuts when you want something looser than a plain grid.
Break one long visual into cleaner card-style reading chunks.
Hide part of the image early, then reveal more with each frame.
Simulate movement by shifting the crop across a sequence.
Best fit
This page is for creative swipe posts, not normal cleanup.
- Burst 3x3 layouts
- Swipe storytelling sequences
- Carousel strips that should feel continuous
Use this page when you want the audience to swipe through a sequence, reveal, or burst effect instead of seeing one plain split set.
If the real task is just separating a merged image, rows, columns, or Instagram posting order, use the simpler pages instead.
Questions
What creative post users usually need answered first.
Which mode should I start with?
Start with Burst 3x3 for reveal posts, Story slices for tall reading flows, and Carousel strip for wide left-to-right swipe sequences.
Can I still draw my own boxes?
Yes. Use custom boxes when the layout is irregular or when the creative effect depends on cuts that do not match a fixed preset.
When should I stop using Burst Grid and go back to the main tool?
Go back to the main tool when the real job is normal cleanup, not a reveal post or swipe sequence.
Source
Upload once, then keep changing the cut behavior.
