Erase a background to transparency right in your browser. Auto-detect simple backgrounds, click areas to erase, or use AI cutout for any photo — then export a transparent PNG or WebP.
Add one or many — PNG, JPG & WebP. Or paste with ⌘/Ctrl + V
PixKit removes backgrounds two ways, both on your device. A local edge-detect eraser flood-fills solid backgrounds to transparency, tuned with Tolerance and Feather sliders. For complex photos, the optional AI cutout downloads a segmentation model once, then computes the mask entirely in your browser — your pixels are never uploaded.
Clean the Gemini sparkle, then finish the job — crop, resize, convert and adjust without uploading a single pixel.
Reverse-alpha math restores the true pixels under the Gemini logo — no blur, no AI guesswork.
Crop to any aspect ratio with draggable handles, then resize to exact pixels or quick scales.
Export to PNG, JPG or WebP with a quality slider and a live file-size estimate.
Every tool runs locally with undo/redo. Nothing is uploaded — it even works offline.
One click for simple backgrounds, one more for AI-grade cutouts.
Drop, paste or pick a photo — it opens on the canvas with the Remove Background panel ready.
Click Remove background for an AI cutout (choose the Best or Fast model), or use Quick erase: Auto wipes simple backgrounds from the edges, Click erases the areas you tap, and Restore paints mistakes back. Tune Tolerance and Feather for the edge.
Keep the transparent background or fill it with a solid color, then export as PNG or WebP — JPG has no transparency and would flatten it onto a color.
Clean cutouts of items on white or transparent backgrounds for marketplaces, shops and catalogs — without paying per image.
Cut yourself out of a busy photo, fill a clean color behind, then circle-crop the result for a polished avatar.
Isolate a subject to a transparent PNG that drops onto any background in chats, decks or edits.
Place logos, screenshots and objects into presentations without the ugly white box around them.
Pop a person or product over a bold color or gradient — the classic YouTube-thumbnail look, done locally.
Wipe the white paper background off a scanned or exported logo so it works on any surface.
Everything about removing backgrounds with PixKit.
PixKit removes image backgrounds for free, entirely in your browser. For solid or simple backgrounds — product shots, logos, icons, and clean AI images — the local magic eraser detects the background from the edges and wipes it to transparency instantly. For complex photos with people or detailed scenes, the optional AI cutout produces a studio-quality alpha mask.
The quick eraser flood-fills from the image edges, so anything connected to the border that matches the background color becomes transparent — the Tolerance slider (5–140) controls how loose the color match is, and Feather (0–4) softens the cut edge. The AI cutout runs a segmentation model in two flavors: Best for maximum edge quality on hair and fine detail, or Fast for a lighter, quicker model.
If the automatic pass misses a spot, Click mode erases just the region you tap, and Restore paints back anything that was removed too eagerly. When you'd rather have a solid backdrop than transparency, pick a fill color from the swatches (or any custom color) and hit Fill — handy for ID-style photos and product listings that require white.
Your images are not uploaded to PixKit. The fast eraser runs offline; the optional AI feature downloads its model from third-party infrastructure and performs inference on your device. There are no accounts, usage credits, or added watermarks, and browser memory limits still apply.
