How it works
Lumiveil samples the colors along the edges of your image to detect the background, then erases every pixel that matches — leaving your subject on a transparent background. Because it all happens locally, there's no upload and no waiting.
- Open the tool — click here and drop in an image.
- Adjust tolerance — raise it to remove more similar colors; toggle edge feathering for smooth cutouts.
- Download — get a transparent PNG. Your original never leaves your device.
Best use cases
🛍️ Product photos
Strip white studio backgrounds to drop products onto any marketplace or design.
🖼️ Logos & graphics
Turn a flat-color graphic into a clean transparent PNG.
👤 Portraits
Works well when the subject stands out against a plain wall or backdrop.
🎨 Design assets
Isolate elements fast for compositing in Canva, Figma or Photoshop.
When it works best (and when it doesn't)
This local remover shines on plain or solid backgrounds. For complex, multi-colored backgrounds (hair against foliage, busy scenes), a server-side AI model gives better results — at the cost of uploading your photo. Lumiveil trades a little versatility for total privacy and instant speed.
