Cut Out a Background in 3 Steps
- 1 Open the photo — it stays on your machine and is never uploaded.
- 2 Let the AI cut the subject out, then tidy the edge with a brush where it needs it.
- 3 Save the transparent PNG — or point the app at a folder and batch the whole set.
Why people look for a remove.bg alternative
remove.bg is quick, but every image is uploaded and the free tier runs on credits.
No credits or subscription
Cut out as many images as you like — this app is a one-time purchase, not a per-image meter.
Nothing gets uploaded
Your photos never leave your computer, so client work and private shots stay private.
Batch, not one at a time
Queue a whole folder and let it run, instead of uploading images one by one.
What the same app does beyond background removal
Background removal is one of several jobs this local editor handles.
Watermarks and text
Erase stock watermarks, timestamps and overlaid text with AI inpainting.
Objects and people
Brush out passers-by, logos or clutter and rebuild the background behind them.
Upscale small images
Enlarge a low-resolution cutout so it still holds up when printed or zoomed.
How it stacks up against remove.bg
Same job, different trade-offs: a local app versus a cloud service.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a free remove.bg alternative?
This desktop app is free to try, and you can cut out as many images as you like during the trial. If you keep it, it is a one-time purchase rather than a monthly subscription.
Can I remove a background without uploading my photo?
Yes. Background removal runs on your own computer, so the image is never sent to a server — useful for client work, personal photos or anything covered by an NDA.
Can it process a whole folder in one run?
Yes. Point the app at a folder and it processes every image in a single batch, with no per-image credit counter.
Can I clean up a watermark as well as the background?
Yes. The same app removes watermarks, logos and text with AI inpainting, so you can cut out the subject and tidy the rest of the image in one place.
