About Image Cutout
Image Cutout is a free online application that removes backgrounds from images directly in the user’s browser. It uses the Segment Anything model to identify and isolate objects based on user clicks, supporting both a lightweight SlimSAM-77 model and the full SAM ViT-Base model for higher precision. Users open an image, mark the desired object with left clicks and exclude areas with right clicks, with the mask updating in real time. The tool offers background replacement options including transparency, solid colors, gradients, blurred versions of the original, or custom images. Multiple cutouts can be arranged on a design canvas for collage creation before exporting as PNG or JPG files. All processing occurs locally using WebAssembly or WebGPU, and images are never uploaded to servers. The interface supports multiple languages and allows switching between models without restarting the session.

Frequently asked questions about Image Cutout
Is Image Cutout free to use?
Yes, Image Cutout is completely free with no sign-up required, no watermarks, and no usage limits. All processing happens in the user's browser, and images are never uploaded to servers.
How do I cut out an object from a photo using Image Cutout?
Open a photo, then left-click the object you want to keep and right-click anything you want to exclude. The cutout updates after every click, and you can download the result as a transparent PNG once satisfied.
Can I separate two identical items in a photo?
Yes. Left-click the item you want to keep and right-click the identical item you want to exclude. The Segment Anything model will separate the boundaries between them.
Can I change or remove the background after cutting out an object?
Yes. You can choose from options like transparency, white, a blurred version of the original, color or gradient presets, or upload a custom background image. The download includes the selected background as a PNG or JPG.
Which AI models does Image Cutout use, and how do they differ?
Image Cutout offers two models: SlimSAM-77, a lightweight model (~17 MB) that runs quickly, and SAM ViT-Base, a full model (~190 MB) for cleaner edges on small or low-contrast objects. Both run locally, and you can switch between them without restarting.
Are my photos uploaded to a server when using Image Cutout?
No. All processing occurs locally in the user's browser using WebAssembly or WebGPU. The only network activity is downloading the AI model once, which is then cached on the device.
