How to remove a background
1. Choose "Person / portrait" or "Object / product". 2. Choose or drop a photo. 3. Wait a few seconds, then drag the slider to compare and download. The result keeps the full resolution of your photo.
Which option should I pick?
"Person / portrait" uses MODNet, a model made for people, and handles hair and shoulders well. "Object / product" uses U²-Netp, a small general model for the main object in the picture, such as a mug, a shoe or a plant. If one gives a poor result, try the other.
How fast is it?
On a recent laptop or phone a photo takes a few seconds. Older phones can take longer. The first time, your browser also downloads the model files, then keeps them in its cache.
Tips for good results
Use a photo where the subject is clearly separated from the background and well lit. Busy backgrounds, glass, smoke and fine hair against a similar colour are the hardest cases. Choose "White background JPG" for online shops and marketplaces.
