Frequently asked questions

Is my image uploaded to a server?

No. Background removal happens entirely in your browser using the Canvas API. Your image never leaves your device.

What types of backgrounds work best?

Solid color backgrounds work best. Gradient or complex backgrounds may not be fully removed. For best results, use images with clearly different foreground and background colors.

What format is the output?

The output is always PNG format to preserve transparency. PNG supports transparent pixels while JPG does not.

How does auto-detect work?

Auto-detect samples the four corner pixels of your image and assumes the most common corner color is the background.
