Remove an image background and save a transparent PNG
Select Portrait for one person, or Products and pets for one distinct subject against a simple background. The editor estimates the subject edge and uses it as an alpha channel so you can place the cutout over another background.
Open the editor ↑Steps
- Choose a clear photo and subject type
Open a PNG, JPEG or WebP. For a person, choose a portrait with visible shoulders and room around the hair. For a product or pet, use a clean background and leave space around the outline.
- Remove the background and inspect the edge
The first conversion downloads the model for the selected subject type and the shared runtime. Inspect hair, fur, clear glass, gaps and dark edges at the intended display size. If the mask cuts into the subject, try a clearer photo.
- Download the transparent PNG
Open the download over both a light and a dark background. A checkerboard in an image editor usually indicates transparency. A white background in a preview app can be the app’s display color.
File and export limits
Up to 12 MB and 24 megapixels in, up to 2,400 px on the longest side out. The models work best with one prominent subject. Groups, transparent surfaces and busy edges can give unreliable results.
Common questions
Which export keeps the background transparent?
Use the PNG from this editor. If you later convert it to JPEG, choose the color that should fill transparent pixels.
Can I remove a background from a video?
This editor accepts still portraits. Photo to Video uses the same subject separation on one portrait and adds a short camera move.
