Good to know
Questions, answered.
Transparent about what happens in your browser, what the model needs, and where limitations can appear.
Are my images uploaded anywhere?
The image itself stays in your browser and is processed on your device. The first run may download the AI model files from the model provider, but your photo is not sent to a background-removal API by this website.
Which image formats can I use?
The tool accepts JPG, JPEG, PNG, and WEBP images up to 12 MB. Files are checked for a valid image structure before processing begins.
Will the output keep my original dimensions?
The tool does not resize your source before processing and requests a transparent PNG result. Output dimensions depend on the browser model and its technical limits, so the interface avoids promising identical quality for every image.
Why can the first image take longer?
Your browser may need to download and initialize the AI model the first time. Later images can be faster because the browser can reuse cached model files.
What if processing fails?
You will receive a clear error message with an option to start again. Very large images, low-memory devices, unsupported browsers, and damaged files can affect processing.
