Object Cutout
Cut out any object from an image with one click using the Segment Anything (SAM) AI model in your browser. Get a transparent PNG. Free, private, no upload. Runs on your device — nothing is uploaded, nothing is stored.
Drop an image here, or click to upload
PNG, JPG, or WebP
Runs the Segment Anything (SAM) model entirely in your browser. The model downloads once from a CDN on first use, then runs on-device — your image is never uploaded.
Object Cutout lets you pick what to cut out. Drop in a PNG, JPG or WebP, click the object you want, and the AI draws an outline around exactly that thing and returns it as a transparent PNG. Alt-click (Option-click on a Mac) any area you want left out, such as a shadow or a neighbouring item, and run it again.
The model is SlimSAM, a compact variant of Meta's Segment Anything, loaded through Transformers.js. It runs in your browser on WebGPU when the browser offers it and on WebAssembly otherwise. Because you point at the subject yourself, it suits photos with several objects in them, where an automatic background remover has to guess which one you meant.
It is free, needs no account, adds no watermark, and your photo is never uploaded.
Why this runs on your device
The photo is only ever read by the page you have open. Segmentation, the transparent PNG and the download all happen in your browser tab, so a product shot under embargo or a picture of a family member never reaches a server. The trade-off is a one-time model download on first use, around 21 MB, which a progress bar shows; the browser keeps it for later runs.
- Drop a PNG, JPG or WebP image onto the page or click to choose one.
- Click the object you want to keep. Alt-click any area you want excluded.
- Press Cut out object. On the first run, wait for the model to download.
- Check the transparent result, adjust your points and run again if needed, then download the PNG.
- The first run downloads the model (about 21 MB). On a slow connection that is the longest part, and later runs reuse what the browser stored.
- The cutout is a hard-edged mask: each pixel is either kept or made fully transparent. There is no soft edge, so hair, fur and semi-transparent things such as glass come out rough. Expect to touch up fine detail in an image editor.
- You must click at least one point before it will run, and each new click discards the previous result, so you press Cut out object again after adjusting points. Clicks on the wrong spot can select a part of the object, or something else entirely; add include or exclude points until the mask is right.
- The model is small. Without WebGPU it runs on the CPU, which is slower, and the app shows a note saying so.
