Background Remover: Remove Background from Image

Upload a photo and press Remove Background. A small AI model finds the main subject, whether it is a person, a product or a pet, and erases everything behind it. You get a transparent PNG that you can place on any color or design.

Drag and drop your image

or click to choose a file. JPG, PNG, WEBP, GIF and BMP are supported.

Your image stays on your device. Nothing is uploaded.

How to remove the background from an image

  1. 1Upload a photo with a clear subject.
  2. 2Press Remove Background. The first run downloads the model, so it takes a little longer.
  3. 3Download the result as PNG to keep the transparent background.

The photo stays on your device

The model runs inside your browser. Only the model files are downloaded; your photo is not sent to any server. That makes it safe for ID photos, client work and unreleased products.

Color Key for flat backgrounds

For logos, signatures and studio shots on a single color, switch to Color Key. Click the background color on the image, set the tolerance and apply. It is fast and gives very sharp edges.

Getting a clean cutout

Good lighting and a subject that stands apart from the background give the best edges. After the cutout you can crop, resize or add text without leaving the page.

Frequently asked questions

How do I make an image background transparent?
Upload the image, press Remove Background, then download as PNG. PNG keeps transparency. JPG does not, so a JPG download gets a white background.
Is the background remover really free?
Yes. There is no credit system, no sign-up and no watermark on the result.
Why is the first cutout slow?
The AI model has to be downloaded the first time you use it. Later cutouts in the same browser start much faster.
