Background remover · Free · No upload

Remove a photo’s background. Keep the full resolution.

Tap the object you want to keep and fkCutout cuts it out of its background, right in your browser. Save a transparent PNG at full size, or place it on white or any colour, with a soft shadow if you like. Your photo is never uploaded, there is no sign-up and no watermark.

What fkCutout can do

  • Tap to cut out

    Tap the object and it is selected. Tap other parts to add them, or tap to remove a part. It works on products, fruit, plants, animals and people.

  • Transparent PNG

    Save the cut-out as a PNG with a transparent background at the full size of your photo, ready to place on a design, a shop listing or a slide.

  • Fix the edges

    Smooth the outline, grow or shrink it, soften it, and remove the old background colour that leaves a white halo. A keep brush and an erase brush fix whatever the model missed, and you can zoom in for fine work.

  • Any backdrop

    Place the object on white, black or any colour, add a soft shadow, and crop to the object with the space you want around it.

  • Fast, on your device

    The model is small (about 6 MB, loaded the first time you tap) and runs in your browser, so there is nothing to upload and nothing to wait for.

  • Private by design

    Your photo is read and processed on your device. It is never sent to a server.

How to use fkCutout in 5 steps

  1. Choose a photo

    Press “Choose a photo”, then pick an image from your device or drop one onto the page.

  2. Tap the object

    fkCutout tries the middle of the picture first. Tap the object, or tap more parts to add them. Use “Tap to remove” for a part you do not want.

  3. Fix the edges

    Zoom in and use the keep and erase brushes where the cut is not right. Open Edge to smooth the outline or remove a halo.

  4. Pick a backdrop

    Leave it transparent for a PNG, or choose white, black or a colour, with an optional shadow.

  5. Save

    Choose the size and crop, then save the PNG (or a JPG or WebP when you use a colour backdrop).

What people use it for

  • Product and produce photos

    Put fruit, vegetables and products on a clean white or coloured background for a shop or a chat listing.

  • Logos, stickers and design pieces

    Cut a subject out of a picture and place it on your own design.

  • Profile pictures and slides

    Remove a busy background from a portrait or an object for a profile, a slide or a poster.

Your files stay on your device

fkCutout processes your photo in your own browser. The photo and the cut-out are never uploaded to our servers. The small model file is downloaded to your browser the first time you tap an object.

These pages use anonymous analytics (Google Analytics) for page views and feature use; file names and contents are never part of that data. Read more about privacy.

Good to know

  • fkCutout works best on one clear object. Thin hair, fur, glass and objects that are the same colour as the background can leave rough edges; use the brushes and the Edge sliders to fix them.
  • The first tap downloads the model (about 6 MB). After that it is fast.
  • Very large photos are processed at a smaller working size for the selection and saved at full size, so the outline can be a little softer than a hand-made cut-out.
  • Saving needs memory. On a phone, choose a smaller size (2048 or 1024 pixels) if a very large photo will not save.
  • fkCutout is an early release, and features may be added or changed.

Frequently asked questions

Is fkCutout free? Do I need to sign up?

It is free, with no sign-up and no login. Open the page and press “Choose a photo”.

Is my photo uploaded to a server?

No. The model and the editing run inside your browser. Your photo stays on your device.

Can I get a transparent PNG?

Yes. Transparent is the default. The checkerboard you see is only a preview and is not part of the saved file. Choose a colour backdrop if you want a JPG or WebP instead.

Does it limit the resolution or add a watermark?

No. You can save at the full size of your photo (or at 4096, 2048 or 1024 pixels), with no watermark.

What if the cut-out is not clean?

Zoom in and paint with the keep brush where the object was cut away, and with the erase brush where background was left. In Edge you can smooth or soften the outline, grow or shrink it a little, and remove a white or dark halo.

Why did tapping “Tap to remove” do nothing?

That tap would have removed almost everything you selected, because the model saw the part as belonging to the whole object. For a small part, paint over it with the erase brush.

Which photos work best?

A single object that stands out from its background: a product on a table, a fruit on a plate, a person against a wall. Busy photos with many overlapping objects need more taps and brushwork.

Which browsers does it support?

Google Chrome on desktop and Android is tested. Other current browsers use the same standard web features and should work, but are not yet tested.
