Background Remover

Remove the background from any photo with an AI segmentation model that runs entirely in your browser. Nothing is uploaded, and you can touch up the edges by hand before downloading a transparent PNG.

Runs 100% in your browser — but it downloads an AI model first

Cutting out a background needs a machine-learning segmentation model. The first time you press Remove Background, that model is downloaded into your browser ( for ) and then runs locally on WebAssembly or WebGPU. On a slow connection the first run can take a minute. Your browser caches the model afterwards, so every later run starts immediately — even offline.

Your image never leaves your device. There is no upload and no server-side processing: the photo is decoded, segmented and rendered entirely on your own machine. Only the model file itself is fetched from the network.

1. Upload & Remove

WebGPU is not available in this browser, so GPU models are disabled.

Blurs the cut-out edge to hide jagged pixels.

3. Manual Touch-Up

Features

  • Nothing is uploaded: the segmentation model runs on your own machine through WebAssembly (and WebGPU where available). Your photos are never sent to a server.
  • Modern segmentation models: RMBG-1.4 handles general subjects — products, animals, objects and people — while MODNet is a lightweight option tuned for portraits.
  • Cached after the first run: the model file is stored by your browser, so repeat runs start instantly and keep working with no connection.
  • Manual touch-up brush: erase leftover background or restore parts the model trimmed too aggressively, right on the preview.
  • Transparent or solid background: export a transparent PNG, or drop the cut-out onto any solid colour and save it as PNG or JPG.
  • Adjustable edge softness: feather the cut-out edge so composites blend naturally.

How to Use

  1. Drag an image onto the upload box, or click it to browse your files.
  2. Pick a model. RMBG-1.4 is the best all-round choice; MODNet is smaller and faster if your subject is a person.
  3. Click Remove Background. The first run downloads the model — watch the progress bar — and subsequent runs skip straight to processing.
  4. Optionally choose a solid background colour and adjust Edge Softness.
  5. Use Erase and Restore to paint corrections directly on the preview.
  6. Download the result as a transparent PNG, or as a flattened JPG.
