Remove background from portraits

Cut yourself out of any photo for profile pictures, CVs and social media. Transparent or any colour, full resolution — the photo never leaves your device.

A clean background makes any selfie look like a studio shot — perfect for LinkedIn, CVs, team pages and dating profiles. The AI handles hair, glasses and shoulders automatically.

Your face is about the most personal thing you can upload. Here it isn’t uploaded at all: the cut-out happens inside your browser.

Tips for the best result

  • Stand away from the wall so your hair separates from the background
  • Even, front-facing light gives the cleanest edges
  • Try a soft colour background for a professional profile photo

Frequently asked questions

Does it work with curly or long hair?

Yes — the model refines edges at full resolution. Very fine flyaway strands may soften slightly, as with every background remover.

Are my images uploaded to a server?

No. Everything happens inside your browser on your own device. Your images are never uploaded, stored or seen by anyone — check your browser's Network tab, or turn on airplane mode after the page loads and see that it still works.

Is it really free?

Yes. No sign-up, no watermark, no daily limits and no paid “HD” downloads.

Do downloads still contain my location?

No. Every file you download is saved without hidden metadata like GPS location, camera serial number or owner name.
