Remove background from PNG
Remove the background from a PNG image, free and 100% in your browser. No upload, no signup — a full-resolution transparent cutout, not a small preview.
How to remove a background
- Drop or pick your PNG image.
- Remove the background — detection runs entirely on your device.
- Keep the background transparent or pick a color, compare against the original with the slider, and save the full-resolution PNG.
About background removal
PNG is a lossless format with an alpha channel, pixel-perfect for logos, screenshots and line art. Since PNG already carries an alpha channel, the cutout stays a PNG: the background pixels simply become transparent, at the original resolution.
The background is detected automatically on your device — people, products and animals with a clear subject work best. Nothing is uploaded, and the full-size result is free. The first run downloads the remover (~50 MB) once; your browser keeps it for later visits.
Frequently asked questions
- Is my PNG uploaded to a server?
- No. The background is detected and removed entirely in your browser: your PNG never leaves your device, and there's no queue and no account.
- What format is the result?
- A PNG at the original resolution. Your file is already a PNG, so nothing else changes — the background simply becomes transparent.
- Is the full-resolution cutout really free?
- Yes. The work happens on your device, so there's no per-image server bill to pass on — you always save at the original resolution.
