Remove the background. Keep your product.

Start with a clear subject

Add PNG, JPG or WebP photos. A distinct product against an uncluttered backdrop gives the cutout model a clearer job than several overlapping objects. The current collection limit is 12 photos, with a maximum of 12 MB and 25 megapixels per photo.

Choose Remove background and export as PNG with a transparent background. The checkerboard in the preview represents empty pixels; it is not printed into the image.

Point at the intended product in a busy scene

Before processing, choose Choose product area and draw a rectangle around the product you want to keep. Background removal runs on that region, then puts its cutout back into the original photo coordinates. Original dimensions with 0% breathing room keeps that position; shared canvases still fit and center the detected subject.

This is a user-selected region, not automatic object recognition. Include all important edges inside the area. Overlapping objects, thin handles and transparent materials can still need Erase or Restore. Changing the area resets this photo’s cutout, crop and brush edits; other photos are unchanged. Use whole photo in the area selector returns to the whole photo, and Cancel keeps the current selection.

Inspect the edges before downloading

Switch between Original and Result. Look at handles, open spaces, straps, labels and fine edges. The model may retain a prop with the product or remove a small detail you wanted.

Open Refine / crop selected photo to erase leftover background or restore a missing part of the source. Restore turns on a faint original guide so you can find missing details; the guide is never exported. Zoom in and use a small brush near the edge (down to 0.2% of the shorter image side). Choose Pan to drag around the zoomed photo without painting; arrow keys also move the view, and Shift moves farther. Switch the Review background between checkerboard, white and dark to inspect edges; this choice is never exported. Restoring also brings back any background beneath the brush. Switch the guide off to inspect your result, and Undo a stroke that goes too far. For an enclosed plain-color backdrop gap, choose Clear gap and click inside it. Tolerance controls color similarity; similar-color product areas can be cleared too. Each click is undoable and limited to 20% of the photo or 2 million pixels. Erase and gap-only edits preserve the kept cutout colors. These edits apply to the selected photo.

Restore a larger missing piece without painting every pixel

Choose Restore area in the detail desk. Tap or click around the missing piece, using at least three points, then press Restore this area. The outline brings back original pixels inside it; it also brings back any original background or holes inside the area. Follow the product edge and erase unwanted openings afterward.

Undo removes an unfinished point or a completed area. You can switch to Pan and back to Restore area without losing the unfinished outline. Apply photo edits keeps the correction, while Cancel discards the dialog edits. The guide and outline are never included in exports. This is a manual correction, not an automatic quality guarantee.

Try Detailed when the compact result misses an edge

Keep Remove background on, then open Try Detailed cutout. Choose or change the product area inside the preview without resetting your current photo. This optional model is about 192 MB and needs more memory; desktop is recommended, and physical phone performance is unverified. Nothing downloads until you press Try Detailed.

Compare the current result and the proposed cutout. Use Detailed result only when you prefer it; keeping it replaces this photo’s cutout and brush edits while retaining crop and finishing settings. Cancel, Keep current or a failed preview preserves the current photo. The larger model is not always better. Save project retains whichever cutout you keep.

Finish a whole collection

After checking a representative photo, choose one canvas and padding setting for the batch. Download an individual result or a ZIP of completed photos. Settings changes require processing again before exporting current results.

Reflective metal, transparent glass, soft fur and pale products on pale surfaces can need manual cleanup. A cutout does not repair blur, relight the product or recreate details that were never visible.

Allow for the first model download

The browser edition downloads an approximately 5 MB model and approximately 14 MB of processing runtime before its first cutout. Processing speed and memory use depend on your device. This compact model can need manual edge cleanup, particularly on fine details and difficult backgrounds.

Mobile browser background removal has not yet been tested on physical devices. Resizing and conversion do not require the cutout model. Inspect your result before using it in a listing.
