Remove image backgrounds effortlessly with this privacy-focused, browser-based tool, requiring only a single click

About • Features • Deploy • License

I needed a simple tool to remove backgrounds from images without compromising on privacy or ease of use.
I wasn't satisfied with existing solutions - they were either too complicated, lacked features, or came with privacy concerns.
That's why I created ByeBackground: a powerful, privacy-focused tool that runs entirely in your browser.
The model used is BRIA Background Removal v1.4, one of the most advanced models for background removal.
This model is released under a Creative Commons license for non-commercial use.
