HARD GRIDS. HARD SHADOWS. ZERO FLUFF.
Most layout apps force your content into rigid, soft, generic templates. BRUT is different. Inspired by the raw aesthetic of neo-brutalism, BRUT gives you total structural control to split, scale, and frame your media with heavy lines, sharp edges, solid offset shadows, and raw text tags.
Whether you are capturing raw architecture, gritty street photography, or cinematic loops, BRUT frames your content into a statement that demands attention.
FLUID LAYOUTS (NO TEMPLATES)
• Forget standard grids. Split your canvas into 1 to 6 custom blocks and drag the dividers to shape and resize sections exactly how you want. Real-time percentage readouts let you dictate the precise weight and symmetry—or asymmetry—of every single block.
• Save any layout you like and drop new media into it later. Your grids stay yours, ready to reuse.
SEE IT BEFORE YOU POST
• Story Preview drops your finished grid into a mock Instagram story — progress bar, profile row, reply bar and all — with every editing control hidden. Videos keep playing, and a sound button sits in the reply bar so you can hear the clip exactly as it will export. You know precisely what Instagram's own interface covers before you export a single pixel.
FULL MOTION & ANGLE CONTROL
• Pinch, zoom, and free-rotate your media to any angle. Need it straight? Magnetic snap-to-straight with haptic feedback locks your photos and videos back to level effortlessly. Plus, media automatically expands to keep your blocks completely filled with zero ugly gaps.
DESIGN PURIST CONTROLS
• Take command of your exact aesthetic. Fine-tune internal gaps, adjust outer frame thicknesses, control border sizes, add top and bottom margins to clear the Instagram interface, and shift solid shadow offsets with razor-sharp precision sliders. Pick custom shades with an advanced system color picker, eyedropper, or instant brutalist palettes.
RAW TAGS & BADGES
• Put a label on your vision. Slap custom text tags, timestamp labels, or status stickers directly onto any block. Customize text and fill colors live, tweak borders, and let your message speak as loudly as your layout.
100% PRIVATE & LOCAL
• Your high-res media is yours and yours alone. Unlike other apps, BRUT requires no accounts, contains no tracking, and uses no external servers. Everything is processed 100% locally on your device.
