Can I change the background color? Blue, red, white?

Yes. After background removal, switch instantly to blue (China school/exam ID photos), red (China marriage registration), white (standard for US/Canada/Japan passports and visas), black, or any custom color via the color picker. You can also upload a custom image as a background. Different countries and use cases, one tool handles them all.

How accurate is the AI cutout? What about hair and edge quality?

Powered by advanced deep learning semantic segmentation that precisely identifies people, products, and animals — including fine hair strands and fur. Auto edge feathering eliminates jagged lines and white fringing, plus erase/restore brushes for manual fine-tuning. Professional-grade results with zero learning curve.

Is my photo data safe? Does it get uploaded to a server?

Completely safe. The AI model runs inference entirely in your browser — images never leave your device. Whether passport photos, ID card images, or commercial assets, your privacy is fully protected.

How do I make a US passport photo (2×2 inches)?

Upload a photo and AI auto-removes the background. In the ID Photo section, first select '🇺🇸 United States', then 'Passport / Visa / Green Card (51×51mm)'. The canvas locks to a square ratio — drag and zoom to position, select a white background, and download a 600×600px photo that meets US Department of State specifications for online applications or printing.
