Questions
How do I make the background of a photo transparent?+
Open the photo here and keep Background on Transparent. The download is a PNG, the common format that keeps transparency.
Which photos work best?+
Photos with one clear subject, such as a person, a product or a pet, that stands out from what is behind it. Busy scenes with many objects are harder.
Why does the first photo take longer?+
The AI model is downloaded the first time you use it, and your browser keeps it for next time. After that, cutting out a photo takes about a second.
Can I fix rough edges around hair?+
Yes. Lower Edge sharpness to keep soft, fine edges like hair, or raise it for a clean cut around products.
Are my photos uploaded?+
No. The AI runs in your browser, and the photo never leaves your device.
