How to get a clean cutout

  1. Choose a PNG, JPEG or WebP image. The browser checks the file and starts removal automatically.
  2. Wait for the background model to download on first use. Later runs can reuse the browser's cached model while that cache remains available.
  3. Move the comparison divider to inspect hair, fur, product edges and any gaps between objects. Use the erase and restore brush where the automatic result needs help.
  4. Download a transparent PNG at the original dimensions. Choose JPG for an opaque white background or WebP when that format suits your workflow.

What to expect

The model processes a 1024 px square representation and maps its mask back to the original image. The app retains original image pixels where the mask says foreground. Very fine strands, transparent glass, reflections, similar foreground and background colours, and crowded scenes can still need manual correction. Check the full-resolution download before publishing it.

Files are limited to 25 MB and 16 megapixels for this device-safe workflow. A first background-removal run downloads a large AI model and runtime files from this site's own host. Your selected photo stays in the browser; read the privacy policy for network and cache details.

Related workflows

For a reusable cutout, use the transparent PNG maker. For catalog photos, try a white background and compare the exported image with the original. To enlarge a small source, try the image upscaler. To remove an unwanted object inside a photo rather than its entire background, use the object eraser.
