Background Remover

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the background remover work?▼

The AI mode uses MediaPipe's selfie segmentation model running directly in your browser via WebAssembly. It detects people and separates them from the background automatically. A manual color-picker mode is also available for non-human subjects.

What types of images work best?▼

AI mode works best with photos of people (portraits, selfies, group photos). For product photos, logos, or objects, switch to color-picker mode for better results.

Is it really free?▼

Yes. Both AI and color-picker modes are free with 3 uses per day. Pro users get unlimited access.

What output format do I get?▼

You get a transparent PNG file. The background is completely removed, leaving just your subject on a transparent layer.

Is my photo uploaded to a server?▼

No. The AI model runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly. Your photo never leaves your device - not even for AI processing.
