Remove Image Background Online

Cut out an object from a photo and download it as a transparent PNG — free, right in your browser, no uploads.

How it works

  1. Upload an image — JPG, PNG or WebP.
  2. Mark the object and background — paint green strokes on what to keep, red strokes on what to remove.
  3. Generate the selection — GrabCut grows a precise mask around the object.
  4. Draw a crop box — set the exact size of the saved image, or use “Fit to mask”.
  5. Download — save the cutout as a transparent PNG.

Example: cut out a product photo

Here is a full walkthrough using a photo with a white background.

1. Prepare an image

Start with a photo whose background you want to remove.

Original photo with a white background
The original image — a subject on a plain white background.

2. Mark the foreground and background

Paint the object to keep and the background to remove, then check that the selection looks right.

Green strokes mark the object; red strokes mark the background.

3. Refine the selection, and set a crop box

Adjust until the selection is clean. You can also drag a rectangle — the exported image will be cropped to exactly that rectangle.

4. Download the transparent PNG

Save the cutout. If the background edges still have blemishes, the simplest fix is to open the file in Windows Paint and clean them up.

The result: a transparent-background PNG.

This example uses a white-background image, but even with a complex image, a few rounds of adjusting the selection will give you a clean cutout.

What is GrabCut?

GrabCut is an iterative image-segmentation algorithm that separates a foreground object from its background based on the color model of the regions you mark. It works well for objects with clear boundaries, such as products, people and clothing.

Everything runs locally in your browser using OpenCV.js, so your photos are never uploaded to a server.

Frequently asked questions

Is this cutout tool really free?

Yes — completely free, with no signup, no watermark and no image limit.

Do my images get uploaded?

No. All processing happens locally on your device in the browser.

Why is there a crop box?

The crop box lets you control the dimensions of the downloaded PNG, so you can save just the part of the image you need.
