Frequently asked questions

No. The AI model runs entirely inside your browser using WebAssembly. Your image never leaves your device at any point. We have no image processing server.
You can upload JPG, PNG, and WebP images. The result is always exported as a PNG file, since PNG is the only common format that supports transparency.
The AI model (~150 MB) is downloaded from a CDN on your first use and then cached by your browser. Subsequent uses skip the download entirely and go straight to processing.
Yes, but it requires a modern browser (Chrome 112+, Safari 16.4+, Firefox 114+) and at least 4 GB of RAM is recommended. Processing will be slower on mobile due to lower CPU power.
Yes. After removing the background you can keep the result transparent (PNG), or fill it with white, black, or any custom color. The color change is instant — no re-processing needed.
The AI uses WebAssembly multi-threading (SharedArrayBuffer) for speed. These APIs require a secure cross-origin isolated context. If your browser does not support them, the tool falls back to single-threaded mode, which is slower but still works.
