How to remove image background in under 5 seconds

Tech Morung

I’m not good at Photoshop and I also don’t have a subscription to Photoshop software. But very often while making websites, I need to remove the image background to blend well with the website design.

Removing background from an image using Photoshop or other image editing tools needs skill and precision to remove the image background efficiently. It also takes a whole lot of time to remove the image background.

As I’m not so fluent in Photoshop, I have been on the lookout for simpler ways to remove image background. I was literally looking for a magic tool that can remove the image background quickly without much effort.

I mean, wouldn’t it be great if you can just remove the image background just by a click, and boom you have a new image without the background?

Sounds too magical? Well apparently, such magic does exist.

Well, here it is! Remove.bg – a magical tool that can remove the image background in just a click, and in a matter of few seconds.

Remove.bg is a web-based service to remove the background of any photo. It works 100% automatically: You don’t have to manually select the background/foreground layers to separate them – just select your image and instantly download the resulting image with the background removed!

How does remove.bg work?

Remove.bg use sophisticated AI technology to detect foreground layers and separate them from the background. To improve the results they have several additional algorithms in place, for instance, to improve fine details and prevent color contamination.

To remove image background using remove.bg, just visit https://www.remove.bg/

Does it cost to use remove.bg?

The service is free. However, the free version only gives out a preview version.

To download the image in full resolution, you can subscribe to their premium plans.

removebg pricing

Remove.bg uses credit system. Credits enable you to use remove.bg for full resolution cutouts in high quality. You can use credits on remove.bg, via the remove.bg API, in our Windows / Mac / Linux app or Photoshop Extension.

Removing the background from 1 image requires 1 credit. Preview images are free on remove.bg and ¼ credit via the remove.bg apps and API.

Subscriptions include a monthly budget of credits, that you can use within that month (or roll over to the next month as long as you stay subscribed). Pay-as-you-go credits are valid for up to 2 years after the purchase.

Their pricing is very much affordable as compared to hiring someone to do the work.

In few seconds, you will have your image ready. Here’s an example of the same image we used earlier.

One big advantage of Pixlr over remove.bg is that Pixlr allows you to download the image in its actual resolution, which means, you will be able to download high-resolution images unlike remove.bg which allows you to download only the preview mode in the free version.

Apart from ‘Always Free’ Pixlr also offers premium service starting at 4.90$/month. You can see the pricing details here. However, for our normal use, their Free version is sufficient.
