About Remove Background

Cut out people, products and objects automatically. An AI segmentation model detects the main subject of your photo and removes everything behind it, leaving a transparent PNG you can drop onto any background, use for product listings or turn into a sticker. Unlike most background removers, the model runs inside your browser, so your photo is never uploaded to a server. The model downloads once (about 5 MB) and is then cached.

How to use Remove Background

  1. 1

    Drop a photo with a clear subject.

  2. 2

    Wait a moment while the AI model loads and analyses the image.

  3. 3

    Check the cut-out on the transparent preview.

  4. 4

    Download the transparent PNG.
