Automatically remove a photo's background using AI, directly in your browser: no uploading the image to any server, no editing software to install.
Uses a subject segmentation model (U²-Net) that runs entirely in your browser via WebAssembly, with no server involved. The model computes which pixels belong to the main subject and produces a transparency mask applied over the original image.
Use cases
- Preparing product photos for an online store without a distracting background.
- Cutting out a person for a collage, resume, or presentation.
- Isolating an object or pet to place it on a different background.
How it works
- 1
Upload your photo
Drag the file in or pick one from your device.
- 2
Click "Remove background"
The AI analyzes the image and separates the subject from the background. The first time it downloads a model (~19 MB); after that it's near-instant.

Get a PNG (or WEBP) with a transparent background, ready to use.
Frequently asked questions
Does it work with any kind of photo?
It works best when there's a clear subject (a person, product, animal, object) against a reasonably different background. On very complex photos or very fine edges (loose hair, sheer fabric), the cutout may not be perfect in the details.
Is it free with no usage limit?
Yes. No watermark, no limit on the number of images: all processing happens on your own device.
Why does the first run take longer?
Because your browser downloads the AI model (~19 MB) that makes server-free background removal possible. As long as you stay on this page, the next photos process almost instantly.
