Process up to 200 images per job — pick your settings once, run them all.
Drop a photo, get back the same subject on a clean black background. AI handles the cutout — including hair, fur, and translucent edges — so you don't have to fight a magic-wand tool. Black is the standard for dramatic product shots, jewellery, OLED-friendly wallpapers, and album art, which is why this version exists as a one-click preset rather than a colour-picker hunt.
Why a dedicated black background tool
You could do this with a generic background remover plus a colour-fill tool — but two steps, two uploads, two waits. The dedicated preset wraps it: cutout + composite + colour fill in a single round-trip. The output is a JPG (which can't carry transparency) so the black fill is baked in cleanly.
Use the related Remove Background tool when you need a transparent PNG for layering elsewhere, or our Transparent PNG Maker for the same with PNG output.
What it's used for
- Jewellery and dark products: high-contrast against black.
- OLED phone wallpapers: true-black saves battery on AMOLED screens.
- Music and album covers: moody portrait look.
- Tech product shots: matches keynote-style presentation.
How to use it
- Drop your photo. JPG, PNG, WebP, HEIC up to 25 MB. People, products, pets, objects all work.
- Wait ~3 seconds. The cutout runs on GPU; matting handles fly-aways and hair detail.
- Preview, then download. Output is a clean JPG with the black background.
Need a different colour?
Use Custom Color Background for any HEX — handy when the brand colour isn't a basic primary. Or stack: remove background → drop onto your own designed backdrop in Photoshop / Figma.
Frequently asked questions
Does it handle hair and fur edges?
Yes — AI matting (not just hard edges) handles wisps and fur. Works best on subjects against contrasting backgrounds in the source.
What about glass, fabric, or translucent objects?
Reasonable. Translucency and glass are the hardest case for any auto-cutout. Re-shoot against a white wall if the result doesn't land.
Can I batch process?
Free tier is one image at a time. Premium supports batches up to 50.
Will it work on screenshots and graphics?
Yes — the model handles flat graphics as well as photos.
Why not just use a #000000 fill behind a transparent PNG?
You can — that's what <a href='/tools/edit-manipulate/remove-background/'>Remove Background</a> + your editor do. This tool is the one-click version.
What output format?
JPG by default, with the black fill baked in. For PNG with the same colour, use Custom Color Background and pick PNG output.
Does it work on group photos?
Yes — multi-person cutouts work well. Ground shadows under feet may go missing; we're rolling out shadow preservation soon.
Is there a watermark?
No watermark on free or premium output.
