Background Remover
Remove a flat background from a logo, icon, or product photo with one click.
Upload your image and we remove the background by colour, auto-detecting the bg from the four corners or using a colour you pick. Best for logos, icons, screenshots, and product photos with a flat background. Output is a clean transparent PNG.
How it works
- Upload your image (JPEG or PNG).
- Auto-detect the background colour or pick one, set tolerance and edge softness.
- Unlock the result and download your transparent PNG.
Use cases
- Turn a logo on a white background into a transparent PNG for slides.
- Cut a product photo out of its background for marketplace listings.
- Prepare a clean app icon with a transparent background.
- Drop a screenshot's background so you can layer it onto a hero image.
- Make stickers and overlays from flat-coloured source images.
Frequently asked questions
Will it remove the background from any photo?
This tool works by colour matching, not AI. It is excellent for logos, icons, screenshots, and product photos with a flat background. Busy real-world photos with mixed backgrounds may need touch-ups in another editor.
How does auto-detect work?
We sample the four corners of your image, average the colour, and treat that as the background. This is the right default for cut-out style photos. You can switch it off and pick the exact colour to remove yourself.
What is tolerance?
Tolerance is how close a pixel's colour has to be to the background colour to be removed. Higher values remove more nearby colours. Start at 30 for a clean white background and raise it for textured backgrounds.
What is the soft edges option?
When on, we fade pixel transparency across a small band around the cut so the edge looks smooth rather than jagged. Turn it off if you want a hard cut.
How long is my file kept?
Your uploaded image and the generated transparent PNG are auto-deleted after 7 days. Re-download is available during that window via the secure link.
