Frequently Asked Questions

Is this background remover really free?

Yes. The standard background remover is 100% free with no limits. It runs entirely in your browser — no sign-up or account required. The optional HD upgrade uses server-side processing and costs 1 credit (or is included free with a subscription).

How do I make an image transparent?

Upload your image above, click "Remove Background," and the AI will automatically detect and remove the background. Download the result as a transparent PNG file.

Can I replace the background with a custom image or color?

Yes. After removing the background, use the "Background" controls to choose a solid color, upload your own background image, or apply a blur effect to the original background.

What is HD Background Removal?

HD removal uses a more powerful AI model on our servers for superior results, especially with hair, fur, glass, and semi-transparent objects. It produces cleaner edges and better detail than the free browser-based version.

Are my images stored or shared?

No. The free background remover processes your images entirely in your browser. Nothing is uploaded to our servers. HD removal temporarily processes your image on our servers but does not store it.

What image formats are supported?

PNG, JPEG, WebP, GIF, BMP, and SVG. Maximum file size is 20 MB. Results are always downloaded as transparent PNG.
