How to remove a photo background online
A product card, collage, or layout needs the subject without a background. Processing stays in the browser: the photo is not uploaded.
Step by step
-
Upload a photo
Open background removal and choose a JPG, PNG, WebP, or HEIC file.
-
Wait for processing
On the first run the browser downloads a model of about 40 MB, then uses the cache. After that, the cutout runs on your device.
-
Download a transparent file
PNG and WebP keep transparency. JPG fills the empty area with white. The checkerboard in the preview marks transparent areas and is not saved in the file.
When the cutout is cleaner
It works better when the subject stands out from the background: a person against a plain wall, a product on a light table. Hair and translucent edges can be cut imperfectly.
Which format to choose
Use PNG or WebP for a site, product card, or layout. JPG is only useful when transparency is not needed and the empty area can stay white.
Things to watch
- A busy background in similar colors cuts worse than a plain one.
- The first run is heavier. Later runs use the model already cached in the browser.
- Choose PNG or WebP for transparency, not JPG.
- This does not invent a new scene. The face and object stay from your photo.
