Frequently asked questions

Are my photos uploaded to a server?

No. The background removal runs entirely in your browser using an on-device AI model, so your images never leave your device.

Why does the first run take a moment?

The first time you use it, the AI model (around 40 MB) downloads and is then cached by your browser, so later runs are much faster.

What file do I get back?

A PNG with a transparent background, which you can drop onto any colour or design.
