Why another background remover?

Because the free versions give you a thumbnail and charge for the real file, and the best-known one is closing.

FAQ

Are my photos uploaded anywhere?

No. The AI model and its runtime are downloaded once from public CDNs (Hugging Face and jsDelivr) and cached; your photos are processed inside this tab and never sent to a server. Fine for IDs, client work and unreleased products.

Is it really full resolution?

Yes. The model finds the subject on a scaled copy (1024×1024 for Standard, 512×512 for High quality), then the mask is scaled up smoothly and applied to your original pixels, so a 24-megapixel photo comes out as a 24-megapixel cutout. Choose a smaller size under Download if you want lighter files.

How long does it take?

The first image waits for a one-time model download (44 MB Standard, 94 MB High quality; High quality is the default on desktop, Standard on phones). After that, each photo takes roughly 5–15 seconds on a laptop (it runs on the CPU), longer on phones. Batches run one after another while you edit.

What works best?

A clear main subject: people, products, pets, cars, food, logos. Fine hair, glass and see-through objects may need the Erase/Restore brush. Busy group photos are the hardest case. On phones PeelPix starts with the lighter Standard model, which can keep furniture next to the subject or fade parts of a person; tap “↻ Try HQ” to re-run the photo with the bigger model.

Can I use the results commercially?

Yes, there is no watermark and no licence on your output. The model (ORMBG) is Apache-2.0. You still need the rights to the photo you start from.

Is the passport preset good enough for an official photo?

It gives you a 35×45 frame on a plain white background, which is a good start. Official rules on head size, lighting and expression vary by country, so check your authority's requirements before printing.

Why is it free?

Because your device does the work, an extra image costs us nothing. Pro will add heavier models and features that need a server.

Free background remover at full resolution

How to use PeelPix

  1. Drop in one or more photos.
  2. Wait a few seconds while the AI cuts out the subject on your device.
  3. Touch up, pick a background or preset, and download PNG, WebP, JPG or a ZIP.

Free: Unlimited full-res cutouts, backgrounds, batch ZIP. No account, no ads.
Pro (planned, not yet available): €5/mo: HD hair mode, 1,000+ batches, AI shadows.

Privacy: PeelPix runs in your browser. Your files and data stay on your device and are not uploaded to our servers.

Frequently asked questions

Is the download full resolution?

Yes, the cutout matches your original image size, with no watermark.

Are my photos uploaded?

No. The AI model downloads once and runs locally in your browser.

Why is the first run slower?

The browser downloads the AI model the first time and caches it for later.
