Cutting out a photo's background - keeping only the actual subject - is one of the most common tasks for product photos, profile pictures and presentations. Until now that meant either fiddly manual work in an image editor, or uploading the picture to some AI service on the web. This tool detects the main subject with an AI model and cuts the background out automatically - with no upload at all.
Behind it sits a real AI segmentation model (open source, Apache-2.0 licensed) that runs entirely in the browser - it downloads once on first visit and is cached locally afterwards, so it keeps working offline too. Because a specialised graphics-chip fast path across multiple cores is not available here (disabled by default in every browser tab for privacy reasons), your device runs the image analysis on a single core - that takes a few seconds per image depending on your hardware. That is the honest price for your photo never leaving your machine.
You choose what appears behind the subject: transparent (as a PNG, ideal for further editing), white, black or a colour of your choice. Detection works most reliably on photos with one clearly recognisable subject - a person, a product, an animal. On images with no clear foreground (plain patterns or landscapes with no main object, say) the model honestly finds nothing distinct to cut out instead of forcing a wrong result.
Choose the background: transparent, white, black or a custom colour.
Wait a few seconds, then download the PNG.
Limitations: The analysis runs on a fixed internal grid (the image is scaled down for it, then the result is scaled back up to your original size) and takes roughly 7 to 11 seconds per image without specialised graphics-chip acceleration (measured on a current desktop processor; older or mobile devices may take longer). Cutout quality is best with one single clear subject; fine detail such as individual hair strands is simplified, and images with no recognisable subject produce a mostly empty result instead of an invented cutout. The output is always a PNG file.
FAQ
Is my image uploaded?
No. The AI model downloads to your device once and then runs locally - even in airplane mode. Your image never leaves your device.
Why does this take several seconds?
For privacy reasons no browser tab may use multiple cores or a graphics chip in parallel for this by default. The analysis therefore runs on a single core - that is the honest price of processing without an upload.
What happens with an image that has no clear subject?
The model honestly recognises there is nothing distinct to cut out and returns a mostly empty or unremarkable result instead of an invented cutout.
Can I get a white or black background instead of transparency?
Yes, choose White, Black or a custom colour under "Background" instead of Transparent.
Which model is used?
A quantized ORMBG segmentation model (Open Remove Background Model, Apache-2.0 licensed), bundled with the tool and self-hosted - no call to a third-party service.
Is this free?
Yes, completely free, no account and no limit on how often you use it.
