A background remover built for clean cut-outs
One click, no lasso and no masking: the model makes the selection for you.
01
Automatic subject detection
There is no need to trace edges. The AI recognizes people, products and animals and keeps them in front.
02
Careful with fine edges
Hair, fur and soft outlines are kept as smooth edges instead of a hard, jagged line, so the subject sits naturally on a new background.
03
Transparent PNG output
The result keeps an alpha channel, so you can drop it into any design tool, slide deck or store listing.
04
Preview on any backdrop
Switch the preview between transparent, white and dark to inspect the edges before you download.
05
Keep editing
Send the cut-out to the Background Changer or the Image Upscaler, or finish it by hand in the free photo editor.
06
Low, upfront cost
Background removal is one of our cheapest AI tools. The credit cost is shown before you start, and failed runs are refunded.

Upload the picture to the tool above and press Generate. The AI detects the subject, removes the background and gives you a transparent PNG to download. No selection or masking is needed.
Background removal uses a small number of credits per image because it runs on an AI model in the cloud. The exact cost is shown on the button, and if a run fails the credits are refunded. If you prefer to cut out by hand, the online photo editor is free.
A PNG with a transparent background. Keep it as PNG or WebP in your design tool; saving it as JPG fills the transparent area with a solid color.
Yes, the model is designed to keep soft edges such as hair and fur. Very fine strands against a busy background can lose a little detail; good contrast between the subject and the background gives the cleanest edge.
Glass, smoke, very sheer fabric and scenes with two equally important subjects. The tool keeps what looks like the main subject; for tricky cases you can refine the edge in the free photo editor.
Yes. Download the PNG and place it anywhere, or use Next step to send it to the Background Changer, which generates a new scene and relights the subject to match.
