Why "PNG" usually means "transparent"

When people search for a PNG maker they almost always want one of two things: a file that keeps transparency, or an image with the background already removed so it can sit on anything. This tool does both at once. It removes the background with an on-device AI model and saves the result as a PNG with an alpha channel.

Formats it accepts

  • JPG / JPEG, the common photo format with no transparency support.
  • WebP, including files saved from websites.
  • PNG, if you want to remove a background that is already baked in.
  • HEIC on Safari and recent Chrome, straight from an iPhone.

If you only want to convert, not cut out

Pick the white swatch before downloading. You get a flat PNG with a plain white background, which is a straight format conversion with a clean background thrown in.

Tip. PNG files are larger than JPGs because they are lossless. A 4000 px product photo can be 8 to 15 MB as a transparent PNG. That is normal, and it is the format marketplaces and design tools expect.

One engine, the right preset for the job

Same on-device model, tuned defaults for common tasks. All free, all unlimited.

Why people are switching to DropBG

remove.bg's standalone website shuts down on December 1, 2026 and moves into Canva. If you just want a background gone, without a design suite and a login, this is the tool.

Private by design

The model runs inside your browser. Your photos never touch a server, which also means there is nothing for us to store, leak or train on.

Genuinely unlimited

No credits, no "1 free HD download per month", no watermark. Processing happens on your hardware, so there is no per-image cost to pass on.

Fast after the first run

The model is cached by your browser once. From then on, most photos finish in one to three seconds, and it keeps working without an internet connection.

Questions

Does the PNG maker reduce quality?

No. PNG is lossless, so the pixels you keep are identical to the original. The only change is that background pixels become transparent.

Can I make a PNG with a solid colour instead of transparency?

Yes. Choose white, black, a preset or a custom colour from the swatches under the result. The download is still a PNG, just without transparency.

Is there a file size limit?

There is no upload, so there is no upload limit. Very large images, above roughly 30 megapixels, may be slow on phones because the work happens on your device.

Is this really free?

Yes. No credits, no watermark, no daily cap, no account, and no ads. The remover runs on your own device, so giving it away costs us nothing. An optional one-time Pro unlock pays for the site.

Is my image uploaded anywhere?

No. The AI model downloads to your browser once and every image is processed on your own device. Open your browser's network tab while you use it: you will see the model download and nothing else.
