Background Remover FAQ

How do I remove background from image online?

Upload your JPG, PNG, or WebP image to ShotEdit. The background is removed in your browser within a few seconds. Preview the result, pick a background colour if you want one, then download a transparent PNG.

Is my image uploaded anywhere?

No. The whole process runs in your browser with a local colour-and-edge algorithm. Your image never leaves your device, and closing the tab discards everything.

Do I need an account, or is there a usage limit?

No account, no sign-in, and no usage limit. The tool is completely free.

What kind of images work best?

The local algorithm works best on subjects photographed against a plain, evenly lit background, such as product shots, logos, and screenshots. Very busy backgrounds or fine hair may need manual touch-up afterwards.

Can I replace the background with a colour?

Yes. After the cutout is ready, use the colour picker to fill the background with white or a custom colour, or keep it transparent, then download or copy the result.
