JPG background remover.

Drop the JPG and the tool proposes the background color from the corners. Adjust the tolerance to cover its shades, turn on smooth edges for a clean boundary, download the transparent PNG.

No. JPG cannot hold transparency, so the result is a PNG with a full alpha channel. That is the format's limit, not the tool's.

It is free, needs no installation and takes seconds in the browser. For a solid background it is as good as the big tools; for a complex cutout, an editor or the AI remover does better.

Yes, and it is the most common use. Pick the backdrop, usually white, raise the tolerance to catch the shadows, download a transparent product for the shop.

Gradients are harder. A higher tolerance catches more of the range but risks eating into the subject. For a strong gradient or a busy background, the AI background remover is the better tool.

The tool reads the corners and proposes the background color; click anywhere on the photo, or type a hex code, to choose another. Tolerance widens the match to nearby shades: 5 to 10 percent for a clean white, 10 to 20 for off-white, cream or a photographed backdrop, more for a gradient.

Turn on Outer pixels only: then only the color connected to the edges of the frame is removed, and the same color inside the subject, white text on a white-background logo for instance, stays put. Smooth edges turns the half-and-half pixels along the boundary partly transparent, which removes the pale fringe JPEG leaves there.

No. The file is decoded, drawn and re-encoded by your browser's canvas, and the page makes no request with it. You can load the page, go offline and keep working; nothing is stored either.

No. The JPG background remover is free and opens without a sign-in, an account or an install.

Up to 100 MB per file, the limit the tool states under its drop area. A larger file is refused with a plain message instead of being decoded.

No, it takes one file at a time. If you drop or choose several, only the first is used; run the tool again for the next one.

The edit is written as a PNG because PNG stores every pixel exactly, with a full alpha channel, so the result can be edited again without a second round of loss.

No. The browser decodes the image and the tool writes a new file from its pixels, so camera EXIF, GPS position and text chunks in the original are not copied into the result. Keep the original file if you need them.

No. The result has the same width and height in pixels as the source.
