What Recraft Remove Background is good for

Recraft Remove Background is an automatic cutout model: give it one image and it separates the subject from everything behind it, returning a transparent PNG. It is built for tricky outlines such as loose strands of hair, animal fur and partly see-through materials, and it keeps color from the old background from bleeding onto the subject. It suits online stores, designers and app builders who need many clean cutouts without drawing masks by hand.

  • Product cutouts for store listings, set on a transparent or brand-colored backdrop
  • Lifting people and pets out of busy backgrounds with hair or fur intact
  • Clean cutouts from AI-generated art for layered compositions
  • Automatic background removal inside a website, app or design tool
