Remove the background from a product photo
Free, no signup, and your image never leaves your device.
A product shot on a sweep or a sheet of paper is what this tool is best at. The backdrop is deliberately plain, which is exactly the condition colour matching needs.
Why these settings
Automatic mode reads the backdrop from the border, and the default tolerance covers the shading a sweep naturally has. Connectivity stays on so reflections and highlights inside the product are kept.
Settings to start from
- How to find the background
- Automatic
- Tolerance
- 32
- Only the area connected to the edges
- On
- File type
- PNG — transparent, lossless
Step by step
- Drop a product photo onto the page, paste it, or choose the file.
- Apply the settings above — they are a starting point, not a rule.
- Check the edges at full size, and fix anything left with the brush.
- Choose transparent or a solid colour, then download.
What to watch out for
Contact shadow. The shadow under a product is part of the backdrop to the algorithm and part of the photograph to you — decide which you want before exporting, and brush it back if the product looks like it is floating.
Common questions
What is the best way to remove the background from a product photo?
Use the settings above as a starting point, then check the edges at full size. Most of the work is choosing the right mode; the sliders only fine-tune it.
Is a product photo uploaded to a server?
No. It is decoded and processed entirely in your browser, and nothing is sent anywhere. There is no server to send it to.
Is there a watermark or a limit?
Neither. No watermark is added, there is no cap on how many images you process, and no account is needed.
