Step-by-Step Instructions

Choose an image to convert

Select your image file. While JPG images do not support transparency natively, RemoveBG.cfd converts the output into a true 32-bit RGBA PNG with an alpha channel.

Execute browser AI extraction

Drop the file onto RemoveBG.cfd. The client-side AI separates foreground pixels from the background without transferring your file across the web.

Export lossless transparent PNG

Click the 'Download PNG' button. Your downloaded file preserves pure transparency wherever the background once existed.

OPERATIONAL NOTES

PNG is the universal standard for web transparency. Always save as PNG, not JPG, to keep transparency.
If creating logos for websites, optimize file size while retaining transparent alpha pixels.
