Background Remover (Solid Colors)

Remove plain white or chosen solid-color backgrounds and export a transparent PNG.

Your image stays on your device: processing happens locally in the browser, with no upload to our servers. Large photos are automatically reduced to a mobile-friendly size before background removal to avoid memory errors. Save the output using the Download button.

Best for photos or logos on a flat, solid background. This tool removes matching colors across the image; complex backgrounds, hair and similar foreground colors may not work well. It is not AI segmentation.

How to use this tool

  1. Choose an image with a plain or nearly uniform background.
  2. Pick the background color and start with moderate tolerance.
  3. Run removal and inspect the downloaded transparent PNG against a contrasting background.

How the tool works

Pixels are compared with the chosen background color. Tolerance determines how far a pixel color may differ while still being made transparent.

Worked example

For a product on a white backdrop, leave the color at white, process the image, then adjust tolerance if a fringe remains. Check that white details on the product have not disappeared.

What to check before using the result

This is color-based removal, not subject-aware segmentation. Matching colors inside the subject can also become transparent. Complex scenes, shadows and glass are difficult. Inputs are limited to 30 MB and output to 32 million pixels.

Frequently asked questions

Will it remove only the outer background?

No. It compares colors across the image, so matching product details can be removed too.

Why does the downloaded image need PNG?

PNG supports transparent pixels. JPG would flatten them onto a solid background.
