Remove backgrounds around people with a local AI model — or by color detection. No uploads, ever.

Cut out subjects from photos without uploading them anywhere. AI Person mode runs a Google segmentation model directly in your browser to remove the background around people; Smart Color mode detects uniform backgrounds with a local flood-fill algorithm. Your image bytes never leave your device.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does background removal upload my photo?

Never. Segmentation runs locally with WebAssembly/GPU in your browser. The AI model files are small and downloaded once from this site — that is a model download, not an image upload, and it is cached for offline use.

Which mode should I choose?

AI Person mode is built for photos of people (portraits, teams, selfies). Smart Color mode works best for objects on plain or uniform backgrounds. Complex, cluttered backgrounds behind objects are beyond what local models can reliably segment.

Are my files uploaded to a server?

No. PDFMiniFly processes everything locally inside your browser. Your document never leaves your device, and once the app is installed it also works offline.
