Everything you need in Background Removal AI

On-device segmentation

The removal AI runs as an ONNX model in this browser, so the photo is not sent to a training queue you cannot see.

Crop, padding, and outline

Crop to the subject, add padding, apply a drop shadow, or add a white, black, or custom sticker outline before you export.

PNG or WebP with true alpha

Download a transparent PNG for compatibility, or WebP when you want a smaller file for the web.

100% browser-based

Your photos never leave your device. Cutouts run locally with ONNX models for private, free edits.

How It Works

Background removal AI here is local inference, not a mystery upload. Focera caches the model after the first run and keeps download on the same page.

  1. Upload your image. Drag and drop a JPG, PNG, or WebP file up to 10 MB, or click the upload zone to browse. Your original preview appears immediately on the right.
  2. Run background removal AI. Click Make background transparent to run AI cutout in your browser. A loading indicator shows model download and processing progress on the first visit.
  3. Refine and download. Use the before/after slider to inspect edges, then crop to the subject, add padding, a drop shadow, or a sticker outline. Download a transparent PNG or WebP.

Jump back to the background removal ai tool anytime to process another file.
