Isolate subjects to overlay on new backgrounds, create collages, or design advertisements. Perfect for social media posts and promotional materials.

Print Materials

Transparent PNG vs. White Background

Our tool exports transparent PNG files by default, which is ideal for most use cases:

  • Transparent PNG: Use when you need to overlay the subject on different backgrounds or colors
  • White Background: Better for online store platforms that require a solid background, which you can add in any image editor

The PNG format with transparency gives you maximum flexibility to use the image anywhere.
