Background Remover

Drop an image and the tool produces a clean PNG with a transparent background. The whole pipeline — segmentation, alpha matting, encoding — runs locally in your browser through a WebAssembly ONNX model (ISNet, ~40 MB, cached after the first use). Your photo is never uploaded, never logged, never stored. For sensitive material — ID and passport scans, medical X-rays, kids' photos, NDA-covered product mockups, private screenshots — this is the difference between a tool you can use at work and one your security team would block.

We won't pretend our approach beats a dedicated cloud SaaS at every job. If you're batch-processing 10,000 Amazon product photos a day, a paid API on a GPU farm is faster per image. If you need video matting at 30 fps, you need a different tool entirely. For everything else — a few product shots, a profile picture, a passport photo, a meme cutout, a slide hero image — running the model on your own laptop wins on privacy, cost (zero), watermarks (none) and limits (none). Same ISNet architecture remove.bg uses on its servers, just executed on yours.

Output is a PNG with a real alpha channel at the original resolution — no downscaling, no re-encoding artifacts, no watermark. You can also pick a solid background color before downloading if you need a flat JPG (white for marketplaces, brand color for avatars, light blue for some visa formats).
