An in-browser AI model separates the subject from the background automatically.
Download the cutout
Export a transparent PNG of the subject.
Frequently Asked Questions
No — the segmentation model downloads to your browser and runs locally. Your image is never uploaded, unlike most online background removers.
Images with a clear subject — people, products, characters, animals — segment most cleanly. Busy scenes with ambiguous subjects are harder for any model.
A PNG with a transparent background, ready for sprites, thumbnails, store assets, or compositing.
The segmentation model downloads to your browser on first use and is cached after that — subsequent images process much faster. It's the one-time cost of running the AI locally instead of on a server.
Zoom in and check edges against both a light and dark background — leftover halo pixels only show against one of them. For sprite work, a quick pass in the Pixel Art Editor erasing semi-transparent fringe gives the cleanest result in-game.
Yes — cut out the subject, downscale it to sprite resolution with the Sprite Resizer, then pack it into an atlas. This photo-to-sprite pipeline is a fast way to prototype before committing to hand-drawn art.
