Remove the background from any photo instantly, for free, and without uploading your image anywhere. This tool runs an AI neural network entirely inside your browser — your photo never leaves your device. Drop a portrait, product shot, logo or any image, and get a clean transparent PNG in seconds.
Perfect for passport photos, e-commerce product images, social media posts, profile pictures, and graphic design. Works on people, animals, objects and text — anything with a clear subject.
How to remove background from an image
1. Drag your photo into the box above, or click it to browse.
2. Wait a few seconds while the AI model processes your image. The first run downloads the model (~40 MB) once — it is cached for all future uses.
3. Compare the original and result side by side.
4. Choose your format (PNG for transparency, JPG with white background, or WebP) and download the result.
Is it really private?
Yes — completely. Unlike most background removal websites that upload your photo to their server, this tool processes everything locally in your browser using WebAssembly and ONNX Runtime. Your images are never uploaded, stored, or seen by anyone. You can even disconnect from the internet after the page loads and it still works (once the model is cached).
Tips for best results
The AI works best when the subject is clearly separated from the background. Good lighting and contrast help. Complex backgrounds with similar colors to the subject may require a manual touch-up. For passport photos, use a plain background and ensure the face is well-lit and centered.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What image formats are supported?
JPG, PNG and WebP images are supported. You can download the result as PNG (transparent), JPG (with white background) or WebP.
Is there a file size limit?
There is no hard limit, but very large images (above 4000px) may be slow on older devices. The tool works best with images up to 3000px on the longer side.
Why is the first time slower?
On first use, your browser downloads the AI model (~40 MB) once. It is cached in your browser storage afterwards, so every later removal starts almost instantly.
Can I use this for passport photos?
Yes — remove the background, then download as JPG to get a white background, which is exactly what passport and visa applications require.
Does it work on mobile?
Yes. The tool works on modern smartphones and tablets. Processing may take a bit longer on mobile devices compared to a desktop computer.
