How to Remove a Background Without Photoshop

This guide covers the observable steps in this online tool: upload an image, choose a background setting, review the result, and download a PNG. Processing time varies with the image, selected model, provider load, and network. To keep a transparent background, leave the background transparent rather than selecting an opaque background color. Edge pixels or export dimensions may change; inspect the result.
