AI background removal — without uploading your photo

Every other background remover sends your image to a server for processing. This one runs the AI model (U²-Net, a widely used salient-object segmentation network) directly in your browser via WebAssembly — your photo never leaves your device, which matters when it is a photo of you, your family, or an unreleased product.

The result is a PNG with a transparent background, ready for product listings, profile pictures, presentations, thumbnails, and design work. A one-click white-background JPG is also available for marketplaces that require it.

How to remove a background

Drop an image above. The first use downloads the AI model (about 4.5 MB, cached afterwards), analysis takes a couple of seconds, and you get a live preview over a checkerboard so you can inspect the cutout before downloading.

Unlike most online converters, FileLark never uploads your files to a server. The conversion runs entirely inside your browser using modern web technology, which means it works offline once the page has loaded, there are no file size queues or daily upload limits, and your images can never be stored, scanned, or leaked — they simply never leave your device.

What to expect (an honest note)

On-device AI has real limits: clear subjects — people, products, animals, vehicles — cut out well, while very busy scenes and fine details like wispy hair or fur edges are harder and may need touch-up. Cloud services with far larger models still win on those edge cases. For most everyday cutouts, this tool gets you there in two seconds without surrendering your photo.

Frequently asked questions

How do I remove the background from an image?

Drop your image into the box above. The AI analyses it on your device in a couple of seconds and shows a preview with the background removed — download it as a transparent PNG or a white-background JPG.

Is this tool really free?

Yes — completely free, with no sign-up, no watermarks, and no daily limits. The site is supported by ads, and because conversions run in your browser rather than on our servers, there are no processing costs to pass on to you.

Are my files uploaded to a server?

No. All conversion happens locally in your browser using the Canvas API and WebAssembly. Your files never leave your device, which makes this tool safe for private photos and confidential documents.

Is this really AI? How does it work offline?

Yes — it runs U²-Net, a neural network for salient-object segmentation, compiled to WebAssembly. The ~4.5 MB model downloads once, is cached by your browser, and then works even with a poor connection.

What images work best?

Photos with a clear subject: people, products, pets, cars, food. Very cluttered scenes and fine details like flyaway hair are genuinely hard for on-device models — inspect the preview, and for tricky edges consider a touch-up in an editor.

What resolution is the output?

The same resolution as your original — the AI computes the cutout mask and applies it to your full-size image, so nothing is downscaled.
