How to Remove a Background for Free
Go to the Background Remover and upload your image. The AI detects the foreground subject (person, object, product, animal) and removes everything else in a few seconds. Click Download PNG to save the transparent result. No sign-up, no payment, no watermark.
What the Free Tier Includes
Free users get full-resolution background removal with no watermarks and no per-image charge. The AI handles portraits, product shots, logos, and objects with clean edges on simple backgrounds. A manual refinement brush is available to fix any areas the AI misidentified - Erase parts it missed or restore parts it incorrectly removed.
What Is Behind the Paywall
The core background removal is free for all users. Premium features include batch processing (remove backgrounds from multiple images at once), higher upload limits (up to 1 GB vs 10 MB for guests), and background replacement presets. For most personal and small-business use, the free tier is fully sufficient.
How to Edit the Background After Removal
After downloading the transparent PNG, open it in the Photo Editor to add a new background. You can fill with a solid colour, apply a gradient, or place the subject over another image. The Photo Editor is also free and browser-based - No Photoshop needed.
