Remove Background

About Background Removal

Remove backgrounds from images automatically using intelligent edge detection. Perfect for creating product photos, profile pictures, graphics for presentations, and any image that needs a clean, isolated subject on a transparent or custom background.

How to Remove Backgrounds

1. Upload your image using the file picker
2. Choose your background mode:
   • Transparent: Creates a PNG with transparent background
   • Solid Color: Replace background with a custom color
   • Blur Background: Keeps background but blurs it
3. Adjust settings for best results:
   • Sensitivity: How aggressively to remove the background
   • Tolerance: Color range for background detection
   • Edge Smoothing: Smooth edges for cleaner results
4. Preview the result in real-time
5. Download as PNG, JPEG, or WebP

Understanding the Settings

Each setting helps control how the background is detected and removed:

• Sensitivity (10-100): Controls how similar a pixel must be to the background color to be removed. Lower values (10-30) are more precise and remove only colors very close to the detected background. Higher values (50-100) are more aggressive and remove a wider range of colors, useful for complex backgrounds.
• Tolerance (20-100): Determines the color range when detecting background colors from the edges. Lower tolerance detects fewer similar colors, higher tolerance groups more colors together as "background." Adjust if your background has slight color variations.
• Edge Smoothing (0-5): Applies anti-aliasing to the edges of the subject for smoother, more professional results. Higher values create softer edges. Use 0 for sharp edges, 2-3 for most cases, 4-5 for very soft, natural-looking edges.
• Background Mode:
  • Transparent: Best for logos, graphics, and when you need to overlay the image on other backgrounds
  • Solid Color: Perfect for consistent product photos or when a specific background color is required
  • Blur Background: Creates a portrait-mode effect, great for keeping context while emphasizing the subject
