Why creators use it
- Cut yourself out for YouTube thumbnails.
- Make clean product photos for a shop or media kit.
- Create stickers and overlays with transparent backgrounds.
Good to know
- The model is optimised for people and clear foreground subjects; fine hair, glass and busy scenes may need touch-ups.
- Very large images are processed at model resolution and the mask is scaled up, so edges can soften on huge photos.
- WebGPU is used when available; otherwise WebAssembly on the CPU, which can take several seconds on phones.
