Background Remover
Remove an image's background and download a transparent PNG.
Drag & drop an image here
…or click to choose a file (PNG/JPG/WebP)
Choose an image to preview and refine its background.
Help and keyboard shortcuts
Automatic removal works best with a clear subject. Mark areas to keep or remove, then check the preview. Manual brush lets you correct individual areas.
Use K / R for automatic Keep / Remove, 1 / 2 for manual Keep / Remove, [ / ] for brush size, Space to pan, and Ctrl/Cmd+Z to undo.
Processing stays in your browser. OpenCV is downloaded to run the automatic selection; your image is not uploaded. JPG needs a solid background; PNG and WebP support transparency.
