How it works:
- Download Instant Bentos™ for free
- Create a rectangle in Adobe Illustrator
- Go to File > Scripts > Instant Bentos
Instead of manually aligning shapes and tweaking gutters, you just draw one shape, run the script — and you’re done.
It’s the quickest and most precise way to build Bento Grids — ideal for client presentations, portfolios, and social media content.
Instant Bentos™: Your One-Click Bento Grid Solution
Forget the multi-step manual process. Instant Bentos is an Adobe Illustrator Script designed to take the grunt work out of creating those clean, structured Bento layouts. Seriously, it's about to become your new favorite time-saver for presentations, social graphics, and anything else that needs that perfectly organized look.
Here’s how ridiculously easy it is:
Draw a Rectangle: Start by simply drawing a single rectangle on your artboard. This rectangle will define the overall area of your Bento grid. Think of it as the container for all your "Bento boxes."
Run the Script: Go to File > Scripts > Instant Bento.


Adjust the Gutter Weight: A small dialog box will appear asking for the "Weight" (which controls the gutter width between your Bento boxes). Enter your desired value and hit OK.
And just like that, boom! Your single rectangle is instantly transformed into a perfectly aligned Bento Grid, ready for you to drop in your content.
