Removing image backgrounds

Background Removal automatically detects the main subject in your image and makes the background transparent.

The image is returned as a PNG with transparency by default. You can also export it as a JPEG — in that case, the transparent areas are filled with white.

Transparent PNGs can be upscaled to 8K or vectorized.

Background removal uses credits once per image: re-exporting or returning to the background-removed version later doesn't cost extra. The current cost is under Your credits cover: click the balance in the top-right corner.

How to use it

1. Click on an image to open the viewer

2. Click Remove background in the viewer's side panel. The removal starts right away

3. Wait for the background removal to complete

4. The background-removed version is saved in Item history. You can return to it at any time by clicking its thumbnail there or by clicking Remove background again

5. Open the Export section

6. Choose PNG or JPEG format (PNG is the default)

7. Click Export to download the image

These steps are for desktop. On a phone, the image viewer has a single Download image dialog with JPEG and SVG.

Feature availability

Background removal is available for every image you generate, whatever model made it.

Background removal is one of the four actions that apply a license, so there is no separate purchase step in front of it. If the image carries a watermark, removing its background licenses it at that moment, and the credits are charged as usual. An image that is already licensed, or never carried a watermark, uses no license. If you have no licenses or credits left, the removal does not run: a window shows what is left and the renewal date if there is one, with Contact us.
