Remove a background without uploading your photo

The background-removal AI runs inside your browser. Your photo is never uploaded, so even sensitive images stay completely private.

Remove a background privately

Almost every background remover works by uploading your image to a server, removing the background there, and sending the result back. ClearBG doesn't. The AI model downloads to your browser once, then does the cut-out on your own device — your photo never travels across the internet.

That makes it the right tool for anything you wouldn't want on someone else's server: a passport photo, a picture of your kids, an unreleased product, a scanned signature. You still get a clean, full-resolution transparent PNG — just without the privacy trade-off.

Why it stays private

On-device AI

The cut-out is computed in your browser. No upload step exists, so there's no server copy of your photo.

Full-resolution output

Export a lossless transparent PNG (or JPG/WEBP) at the original size — no downscaling, no watermark.

Free & unlimited

No credits, no account, no per-image fee. Remove as many backgrounds as you like.

Tools that run on your device

All free, all private — nothing here uploads your images.

Frequently asked questions

How does it remove the background without uploading?
The first time you use it, a small AI segmentation model loads into your browser. After that, every cut-out is computed locally on your device — the image itself is never transmitted.
Is the quality as good as tools that upload?
Yes. It handles hair and soft edges well and includes a refine brush to tidy edges. Exports are full-resolution and never watermarked.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes, in any modern mobile browser. The image is still processed on the device — nothing is uploaded from your phone either.
Can I process several images privately?
Yes. You can batch a set of photos and download them together as a ZIP, all without a single upload.
