Depositphotos has launched a free online tool that automatically removes backgrounds from images and does not require any design skills from users to achieve results

The tool is AI-powered and allows a user to edit their image in just one click.

Removing an image background is one of the most commonly used features among visual creatives. With its help, they have more opportunities to produce original and engaging designs, as well as branded content. This feature has long been a staple in any professional designer’s arsenal. From now on, any user can utilize the AI-powered background removal tool on the Depositphotos website.

“The tool’s development started with an idea to establish a digital ecosystem that would be useful to our users and would aid in simplifying their work with content. The technology is neural network-based: we’ve trained our algorithms to analyze an image, process data, and recognize an image background for its further automated removal.

The whole project, from start to finish, took us about 6 months. Our next steps will include improving the tool and adding advanced functionality for better object contour recognition”, – commented Igor Kaliuzhnyi, chief product officer at Depositphotos.

The image background removal tool is free to use, fully automated, and enables you to save time processing as many images as you need. You can remove backgrounds from both images purchased on Depositphotos and your own visuals. The tool supports the most popular formats: JPG and PNG. The processed files are available for download in PNG format with a transparent background. Download-ready images will be automatically deleted from the database in 48 hours.

The image background removal tool will come in handy for those creating website designs, collages, and presentations, as well as working with product photography. To check out the tool, upload your first image to the website.
