Background Remover
Free AI background remover. Upload any photo and remove the background instantly in your browser. Download as transparent PNG. No signup. Files never leave your device.
How to Use the Background Remover
Upload your image by dragging it into the upload zone or clicking to browse. Click Remove Background — on first use, the AI model downloads to your browser (~40MB, cached after the first time). Processing takes a few seconds. When complete, a before/after slider lets you compare the original and result side by side. Choose a background color or keep it transparent, then download your image as a PNG.
About This Tool
Remove backgrounds from photos using a deep learning AI model that runs entirely in your browser. The segmentation model separates the subject from the background, producing a transparent PNG. Works with people, products, animals, and objects. No server upload required — your image never leaves your device. Paid tools like remove.bg charge for this feature; Toobits does it for free with the same underlying technology. Pair with Image Compressor to reduce file size after removal or Image Resizer to adjust dimensions.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is my photo uploaded to a server?
No. The AI model runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly. Your image never leaves your device, making this safe for personal photos, ID documents, and confidential product images.
Why does it download 40MB on first use?
The AI segmentation model is approximately 40MB. It downloads once and is then cached in your browser — every subsequent use is instant with no download.
How accurate is the result?
For most common subjects — people, products, animals — the result is excellent. Fine details like hair, fur, and transparent objects may show some imperfection at the edges.
What image formats are supported?
JPG, PNG, and WebP are supported as inputs. Output is always PNG, as it is the only common format that supports transparency.
Can I use this on mobile?
Yes, on modern iOS and Android browsers that support WebAssembly (Safari 14+, Chrome for Android). Processing may be slower on mobile devices.
Is there a file size limit?
There is no hard limit. Images over 10MB may take longer to process. For best performance, use images under 10MB.
