Remove Background from Image

Save your image as a transparent PNG

You get a PNG, so the background is actually transparent rather than white. The subject sits on any colour or image with no pale box around it.

Need a plain white background — for a product listing or an ID photo? Place the transparent PNG on a white layer in any editor and you'll get a clean white backdrop with no halo along the edge.

No upload: your photos stay in your browser

Your photo doesn't go to the cloud. The model runs on your own device — the file stays in the browser, and we never see or store it. That matters for personal shots, ID photos and work files you'd rather not hand to a server.

Remove a background on your phone — no app

There's nothing to install — open the page in your phone's browser, load a shot from your gallery and save the result back. It works the same on Android and iPhone as on a computer.

Replace the background or put your product on white

A cut-out is handy almost anywhere:

• Product photos for marketplaces and your own store — the item on a white or transparent background.
• Avatars and profile pictures for social media and messengers.
• Collages, banners and slide decks — a cut-out drops into any layout.
• Stickers and memes with a transparent background.
• Background swap: take out the old one and drop in a new one — studio, colour or your own.

Remove the background without losing quality

The resolution isn't touched — you get the picture back at the same size you put in. The more the subject stands out from the background in colour and focus, the cleaner the edge, so portraits and objects on a plain or blurred backdrop come out best.

How to compress an image online

Drop your images above and pick a preset: “Smallest file” for email and messengers, “Balanced” for websites and social media, “Best quality” for portfolios and print. Every row shows the size before and after, and the “Compare” button puts the original and the compressed version behind a slider so you can judge the quality yourself.

Need an exact weight? Turn on “Fit into” and type, say, 200 KB — the tool searches for the right quality and, if that is not enough, carefully scales the image down. “Auto” encodes both WebP and JPEG and keeps whichever file came out smaller; transparency in PNG images is preserved. You can also cap the long side — 1920 px is plenty for almost any page.

Files are processed on your own device: they never reach a server, are never stored by us and never end up anywhere else. That makes it safe for work material and private photos alike.

How to compress a photo down to a given size — 200 KB, for example

Upload forms usually come with a hard limit: 200 KB for a profile photo, 500 KB for a scanned document, 1 MB for an email attachment. Switch on “Fit into”, type the number in kilobytes, and the tool searches for the highest quality that still fits the limit.

The search runs from the top down: it starts near lossless and lowers the bar only until the file fits. If even the lowest quality is too heavy, the resolution is reduced as well — which normally only happens with multi-megapixel shots and very small limits.

JPEG, PNG or WebP — which format to compress to

JPEG is the universal photo format: small files, no transparency. PNG is lossless and keeps a transparent background, which is why logos, icons and text screenshots live there — but a photo in PNG weighs several times more. WebP is usually 25–35% lighter than JPEG at the same quality, supports transparency and works in every current browser, so it is the best pick for a website.

If you would rather not think about it, leave the format on “Auto”: the image is encoded into several formats and the smallest result wins, with transparency preserved when the source had it. When a client or an old program only accepts JPEG, pick JPEG manually — the transparent background is then filled with white, and the row tells you so.

Compressing images for a website: load time and Core Web Vitals

Heavy images are the most common reason a page feels slow: the hero image is usually the very element Google measures as LCP. Mobile visitors arrive on slow networks, where an extra megabyte turns into extra seconds of waiting — and lost visitors.

The recipe is simple: cap the long side at 1920 px (1280 px is plenty for in-content blocks), compress at about 75 and serve WebP. A full-width image then fits into 100–200 KB instead of 2–3 MB while looking the same. For product cards and thumbnails, 800 px is enough.

Compressing photos for marketplaces, documents and messengers

For Amazon, Etsy or any marketplace card, sharpness matters more than megapixels: 1600–2000 px on the long side at quality 80–85 looks perfect and weighs a fraction of the original phone shot. For scans and document photos use the size limit instead — it is the quickest way to meet a form’s requirements.

Messengers and mail clients re-compress attachments on their own terms and often ruin the picture. Compress it yourself first and the quality stays under your control rather than at the mercy of an algorithm.

Batch mode: 30 images at once and a single ZIP

There is no need to process files one by one. Drop a whole folder — up to 30 images per run — and they all go through the same settings. Every row shows the size before, the size after, the percentage saved and the resulting format, with the total saving on top.

Take the results one at a time or hit “Download all (ZIP)” for the whole batch. Each name gets a “-min” suffix, so nothing overwrites your originals. Settings can be changed on the fly: move the quality slider and the whole list is recalculated without re-uploading anything.
