AI Background Remover
Cut the background out of any photo with an AI model that runs inside your browser — your image is never uploaded.

The AI model (about 40 MB) is downloaded only when you start removing a background, then cached by your browser for next time.
Frequently asked questions
- Is my photo uploaded to a server?
- No. The neural network runs inside your browser through WebAssembly, and your photo is only ever held in your device's memory. Nothing about the image is sent anywhere.
- What is downloaded then?
- Only the AI model itself — roughly 40 MB of weights plus the WebAssembly runtime — fetched from a public CDN the first time you remove a background. Your browser caches it, so later runs start straight away. Nothing is fetched until you press the button.
- Why is the first run slow?
- The first run pays for the model download and warm-up. After that, a typical photo takes a few seconds; larger images and older devices take longer, since all the computation happens on your own hardware.
- What do the preview colours do?
- They are only a backdrop so you can judge the cut-out against white, black, or a colour of your choice. The exported file always keeps its transparent background.
- Which images work best?
- Clear subjects — people, products, animals — against a distinguishable background give the cleanest edges. Very fine detail such as loose hair or motion blur can come out soft.
- Can I crop or resize the result?
- Yes. Use Open in Image Editor to pass the transparent PNG straight into the Image Editor for cropping to social sizes, rotating, or exporting in another format — again without any upload.
