A clean background. For your profile or product.

A profile picture taken in the kitchen, a product shot on a messy desk. Remove the background in your browser and keep only what matters.

The background is rarely the one you wanted.

Good photos are often taken in the wrong place: a busy room, a cluttered table, a wall that does not fit.

Remove background finds the person or object automatically. Where the edge is not perfect, paint with Keep to bring parts back and Erase to remove what is left.

How it works

  1. Open the photo

    Choose a profile or product photo from your phone or computer.

  2. Press Auto

    The background is removed automatically and the subject is kept.

  3. Fix the edges and download

    Use the Keep and Erase brush for hair or small details, then download the photo.

  • Automatic first pass
  • Brush for fine edges
  • The photo stays in your browser

Finish the photo in the same place

  • Keep and Erase brush

    Paint over the parts Auto missed, or bring back an ear, a hand or a product edge.

  • Crop and rotate

    Frame the photo for a profile picture or a product listing.

  • Light and colour

    Adjust light, contrast and colour so the photo looks its best.

Good to know

Is my photo uploaded?
No. The background is removed in your browser. The photo is only uploaded if you choose to send it with a link.
What if Auto cuts off part of the subject?
Use the Keep brush to paint it back, and the Erase brush to remove anything left from the background.
Does it work for products as well as people?
Yes. It works on portraits and on objects photographed against a background.
Can I remove an object instead of the whole background?
Yes. The photo editor can also erase a single object from the picture.
Can I use iPhone HEIC photos?
Yes. Convert them with HEIC to JPG first if needed.
Do I need an account?
No. It is free and needs no account.

Keep the subject. Lose the background.
