Everything you need in Remove Image Background

Subject stays, backdrop goes

AI splits people, products, and graphics from the scene so the image background becomes empty pixels.

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

Save a transparent PNG for the widest compatibility, or WebP when you need a smaller web-ready file.

100% browser-based

Cutouts run locally with ONNX models. Photos stay on your device for private, free edits.

How It Works

Removing an image background should stay on one screen: upload, isolate, download. Focera keeps that path free and without an account.

  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. Remove the image background. 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 remove image background tool anytime to process another file.
