Start from a real moment in your video
Upload your video and GetButlr scans it for strong scenes: the catch, the reveal, the reaction. You pick a moment and GetButlr improves that frame without inventing a different subject. The frames are read in your browser from your own file.
You can also ask for complete thumbnail directions instead. GetButlr suggests three distinct packages, a safe one, a growth one and a wild card, each with the headline and image working together and a preview at feed size.
Fix one thing on a thumbnail you already made
Already designed a thumbnail but one part is wrong? Upload it and describe the change, or mark the area to change. Only that area is regenerated and everything outside it is kept exactly as it was. If a person is in the shot, the result is checked against your original and a changed face is refused.
Honest about faces and footage
Every image GetButlr makes says how it was made: an original frame from your video, your own photo composited in, or an AI image. GetButlr never presents an AI-made face as you.
Thumbnail ideas and renders are part of the paid plans, which start at $9 a month. Comparing thumbnails you made yourself is free, three times a month.
- Real moments found in your own footage
- Three distinct thumbnail directions that match your title
- Fix one part of an existing thumbnail without redrawing the rest
- Every image labelled: original frame, composite or AI
Questions creators ask
Is the AI thumbnail maker free?

Can I use my own face or photo?
Yes. GetButlr can start from a real frame of your video or composite your own photo in. Every image is labelled with how it was made, an AI-made face is never presented as you, and an edit that changes a real face is refused.
What are good YouTube thumbnail ideas?
The strongest ideas usually come from a real moment in the video that makes the title's promise visible: the result, the reveal or the reaction. GetButlr finds those moments in your footage and suggests three distinct directions, each with a headline that matches the title.
What size should a YouTube thumbnail be?
YouTube recommends 1280 by 720 pixels, a 16:9 ratio, with a minimum width of 640 pixels. Most viewers see it much smaller than that, which is why GetButlr previews every option at feed size.
Can AI tell if my thumbnail will get clicks?
Not reliably before real viewers see it. GetButlr does not give a click score. It compares real options side by side and explains its reasons, and YouTube's Test & Compare can then measure them with your audience.
