Frequently asked questions
How does browser-based background removal work?▼
The tool uses a machine learning model that runs directly in your browser to segment the foreground subject from the background. Your image is never uploaded to any server.
What image formats are supported?▼
You can upload JPEG, PNG, and WebP images. The output is always a PNG file, since PNG supports the transparency needed for a removed background.
How accurate is the background removal?▼
It works well for clear subjects against distinct backgrounds — product photos, portraits, and simple compositions. Complex scenes with similar foreground/background colors or fine details like hair may need manual refinement.
