How to use Remove Background

Remove Background – Cut out people and objects automatically with AI. Free, no upload.

Pick “People” for portraits or “Any object” for products, pets and things.
Wait a few seconds while the AI runs on your device.
Choose transparent or a background colour and download.

Supported formats

Input: JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, HEIC
Output: PNG (transparent), JPG

AI that runs on your device

The segmentation model (MODNet for portraits, ISNet for general objects) is downloaded once and cached by your browser, then runs locally – on your graphics card where the browser supports WebGPU, otherwise on the processor.

Uses

Product photos for online shops, profile pictures, passport and ID photos, stickers, presentations and design work.

Limitations

Fine hair and transparent objects (glass) may need touch-ups.
The “Any object” model is a large one-time download and runs slowly on older phones.

Privacy

Files you choose are read into your browser’s memory and processed on your device; they are not uploaded to a server. Temporary download links are released after use, and the offline cache never stores your documents. More about privacy and limits.

Frequently asked questions

Is my photo uploaded to remove the background?

No. The AI model runs in your browser, so the photo never leaves your device.

Can I make the background white or another colour?

Yes. After the cut-out, choose Colour and pick white or any colour, or Blurred original for a portrait-style blur – then download as JPG or PNG.

Why does the first run take longer?

The AI model is downloaded once (about 33 MB for people, about 75 MB for any object, including the AI engine) and then cached, so later runs start immediately.

Is it free?

Yes – free with no signup, no watermark and no daily limit. You can process many images at once.
