Facts about this tool

White background to transparent

Upload your photo, remove its background and save the PNG. This is subject separation, so it removes the whole background rather than only its white pixels.

FAQ

Does the PNG background remover keep transparency?

Yes. Successful background-removal jobs return a PNG with transparent pixels around the subject.

Do I need to draw around the subject?

No. Upload the photo and the background-removal model creates the cutout.

Does it remove only white pixels?

This tool separates the subject from the whole background; it does not target only white pixels. Fine hair, translucent objects and white subjects may need another tool.

What image sizes can I upload?

Upload one JPG or PNG up to 12 MB.

What should I check before using a cutout?

Inspect hair, transparent objects, and edges where the subject blends into the background. Fine strands or low-contrast edges may need another photo with clearer separation. The result shows the original and output pixel dimensions before you download.
