Frequently Asked Questions
- How does the AI background remover work?
- Our tool uses a neural network (ISNet) that runs entirely in your browser via WebAssembly. It analyzes your image to identify the foreground subject and removes the background automatically. No image data is sent to any server.
- Why do I need to download the AI model first?
- The AI model (~40 MB) is a one-time download that gets cached by your browser. After the first download, the model loads from cache instantly. The model runs locally, keeping your images completely private.
- What output formats are available?
- You can export as PNG (preserves transparency), JPEG (transparent areas become white), or WebP (smaller files with transparency support). PNG is the default and recommended format for background-removed images.
- Is this really free? Are there limits?
- Yes, it is completely free with no limits. Since all processing happens in your browser using your device's CPU, there are no server costs. Process as many images as you want.
- Do you store or upload my images?
- No. Your images never leave your device. The AI model runs entirely in your web browser. We have zero access to your photos.
