Many wouldn’t believe it but the answer is actually yes, and without having to do any fancy install either! Remove.BG does all the hard work for you, all you have do is upload a photo and let the API work it’s magic.

I’ve recently been playing around with this tool and I have to say I’m pretty impressed with its capabilities. The API isn’t perfect though and the main downside is that it doesn’t handle some images very well. The two main issues I’ve found is that it sometimes doesn’t crop parts of the background or it includes some of the foreground in the background removal. However, after reading about Remove.BG it is clear they do have plans to continue improving this tools and adding more features.

Personally, I’ll definitely be using this tool when I need to remove a background from an image. The 5 seconds it takes for the website to perform the removal is well worth the time even if it it’s just to check that their API can do it before manually removing the background in editing software such as Adobe Photoshop.

Try out the tool for yourself 👉 Remove.bg
