1280 x 720 pixels, 16:9, which is the size YouTube expects for a video thumbnail.
The thing worth remembering is how small a thumbnail actually appears. On a phone it may be only a couple of centimetres wide. Any text on it needs to be very large and high in contrast to survive that, and fine detail will simply disappear.
YouTube also caps thumbnail files at 2 MB, so if yours is bigger, run it through the JPG Compressor afterwards.

Questions
What size should a YouTube thumbnail be?
1280 x 720 pixels, under 2 MB. Smaller images are accepted but look soft on large screens.
My text is unreadable in the thumbnail.
It is being shown far smaller than you are designing it. Use very few words, very large, in a colour that contrasts strongly with what is behind it.
Is this tool free?
Yes. Every tool here is free, and you do not need an account, an email address or a phone number.
Is my file uploaded to your server?
No. This tool runs inside your own browser, so the file never leaves your phone or computer. Once the page has loaded you can even switch off your internet connection and the tool will still work.
Which files can I use?
This tool accepts JPG, PNG and WebP. The largest file it will take is 25 MB.
