Clean edges that keep you whole, at a good speed. Right for most videos.

Add a video to start.

Everything happens in this browser, so your video never leaves your computer. An AI model finds the person in every frame, each frame is checked against the next so the edges don't flicker, and the result keeps your video's own size, up to 4K.

This free video background remover takes the background out of a video of a person, at the video's own size, in your browser.

Blur it, put yourself on a color or a photo, or make it see-through. Nothing is uploaded.

I built it for talking-head videos: creators, presenters and anyone on camera. Here's how to use it, what you can make, and how it works.

What is a video background remover?

A video background remover finds the person in every frame of a video and takes out everything behind them.

You can then blur it, replace it with a color or a photo, or leave it see-through to put over another video.

Remove the background from a video0/4

What you can make

You pickYou get
See-throughA WebM video with a see-through background, for video editors
BlurAn MP4 video with your own background softly blurred
BokehAn MP4 video with your room blurred like a fast camera lens, by depth
A color or green screenAn MP4 video on that color
A photoAn MP4 video with your photo behind you

The sound comes along unless you turn it off.

Bokeh like a real lens

Bokeh blurs your room the way a fast lens does at f/1.4 to f/2.

A second AI model works out how far back each part of the room is, so the wall right behind you softens a little and the far end a lot.

Lights turn into round discs, and they stay bright, the way they do through a real lens.

Toward the corners the discs narrow a little, like a fast lens's do, and your video's own grain stays in the blur so it doesn't look plastic.

Amount sets how strong the blur is. The first time you pick Bokeh, your browser downloads the second model once, 50 MB.

Formats, sizes and length

You can drop MP4, MOV and WebM videos that your browser can play. The new video keeps your video's size, up to 4K, and a bigger video comes out at 4K.

Each video can be up to 5 minutes. For a longer one, you pick a start and an end, and you can do the next part after.

How it works

It runs in your browser, one frame at a time:

StepWhat happens
Find the personAn AI model made for people on video marks the person in every frame
Stop the flickerEach frame is checked against the one after it, so an edge that flips for one frame is put back
Full sizeThe cutout is fitted to every pixel of the frame, along the frame's own edges, up to 4K
Clean colorsThe old background's tint comes out of the edges, so hair doesn't carry your wall onto the new background
New videoThe frames and the sound go into a new MP4, or a WebM when it's see-through

The first time, your browser downloads the AI model once, 88 MB, and keeps it. It runs on your graphics chip where your browser allows it.

What it still gets wrong

It's made for people, and these are the videos where it struggles most:

  • Things that aren't people – a product, a pet or a car in a video won't come out cleanly. For a photo of one, use the image background remover.
  • Fast motion – a hand waving fast is blurred in the video itself, so its edge is soft.
  • Look-alike colors – where your clothes or hair match the wall behind you, edges can wander.

The before and after slider shows the original and the result side by side, so you can check before you download.

Nothing is uploaded

Most video background removers send your video to their server. This one runs in your browser, so your video never leaves your computer.

Use your video

To post it on TikTok, Reels or Shorts, run it through the video resizer.

For captions, try the video caption generator, or the video to text converter for a transcript.

Who is the video background remover for?

It's for anyone on camera who wants a different room behind them:

It works in your browser, so your video never leaves your computer.

High is right for most videos: clean edges that keep you whole.

Pick Best for 1080p and 4K, where the AI sees more of each frame for crisper edges, and it takes about 3 times as long.

Fast is the quickest, with softer edges, for a first look.
