Background Remover
What it does: automatically removes the background from your images, leaving a clean cutout of the subject. You can keep the background transparent, fill it with a color, or drop in a replacement image.
How to use it
- Open Background Remover.
- Add images by dropping them onto the panel or clicking Choose images…. Supported types include PNG, JPG, WebP, GIF, TIFF, AVIF, and BMP. You can add a single image or a whole batch.
- Choose what to do with the removed Background:
- Transparent PNG — the subject on a transparent background.
- Solid color — fill the background with a color you pick (use the color swatch or type a hex value like
#ffffff). - Replace with image — choose another image to use as the new background.
- (Single images) Choose what should happen when a cutout finishes: open the image, reveal it in File Explorer, or do nothing.
- (Optional) Click Preview first image to see a before/after of the first image before committing to the whole batch.
- Click Remove background to process everything. Each image becomes a job.
Output
Saved to the Background Remover subfolder. Cutout files are named after the original with a -nobg suffix (for example, photo-nobg.png).
Tips & notes
- The preview is a fast, lower-resolution look at the result so you can check your color/replacement choice before running a large batch.
- For batches, files are left in the output folder rather than opened automatically.
- Very low-contrast subjects (where the subject blends into the background) are the hardest cases — see Troubleshooting.
