Remove background
Drop a photo and its background is taken away: a person, a product or a pet, ready as a see-through PNG. It all happens in your browser, so your photo never leaves your device.

JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, HEIC and more. It never leaves your device.
Questions
What people ask before they start, and how your files stay on your device.
Is it free?
Yes: remove as many backgrounds as you like, at full size, with no watermark and no sign-up.
Is my photo uploaded?
No. The background is found by a model that runs in your browser: the first time it's fetched from Hugging Face and kept by your browser, and your photo never leaves your device.
What can it cut out?
People, products, animals, cars, logos: whatever stands out as the subject. Hair and fine edges come out soft; check them on a busy picture before you use it.
How do I get a transparent PNG?
It's what comes out: export as PNG or WebP and the background stays see-through. Choose JPG and it becomes white.
Can I put a new background behind it?
Yes: set the canvas's background to a colour, or add another image and move it below in the layers.
Why is it slow the first time?
The model, about 100 MB, is fetched once; after that your browser keeps it, and a photo takes a few seconds.
