Background Remover
Remove the background from a photo automatically with AI, in your browser, and download a transparent PNG.
Your photo is processed in your browser and never uploaded.
Drag the slider to compare with the original.
The first use downloads the AI model (about 42 MB). Your browser keeps it, so the next photos are much faster. Works best when the subject is clearly separate from the background.
Background Remover
The Background Remover finds the subject of a photo, whether a person, a product, a pet or a car, and makes everything else transparent. It runs an AI segmentation model directly in your browser, so your photos are never sent to a server. The result keeps the full resolution of your photo, and you can download it as a transparent PNG or put it on a white or coloured background, ready for product listings, profile pictures and designs.
How to use Background Remover
- Choose a photo (JPG, PNG or WebP) or drop it on the page.
- Wait a few seconds. The first time, the AI model (about 42 MB) is downloaded once and kept by your browser.
- Drag the slider to compare with the original, and pick a transparent, white or coloured background.
- Click Download image.
When it comes in handy
- Product photos on a clean white background for online shops and marketplaces.
- Profile pictures, ID photos and team pages.
- Cut-outs for thumbnails, presentations and social media designs.
Frequently asked questions
- Are my photos uploaded?
- No. The AI model runs on your device. Only the model itself is downloaded, from Hugging Face, the first time you use the tool.
- Why is it slow the first time?
- The model has to be downloaded once (about 42 MB). After that your browser keeps it, and each photo takes a few seconds, depending on your device.
- What photos work best?
- Photos where the subject is in focus and stands out from the background. Fine hair, glass and objects the same colour as the background are harder; check the edges before you use the result.
