Privacy-First Portrait Cut-outs
This tool uses semantic segmentation to separate a person from the surrounding scene. It is intentionally described as portrait-focused because accurate product and object removal requires a different model. Clear lighting and visible edges produce the cleanest transparent PNG.
Frequently asked questions
What photos work best?
Portraits with clearly visible people and a distinct background work best. This model is designed for people, not arbitrary products or objects.
Does it use a server?
No. The segmentation model downloads to the browser and processes pixels locally.
Why is the first run slower?
The browser downloads the WebAssembly vision runtime and segmentation model on first use, then it can cache them.
Can it remove a product background?
Results are not reliable for products because this privacy-first browser model is optimised for people and portraits.
Which output format is used?
The result downloads as PNG so removed areas stay transparent.
