What is Remove.bg?

Remove.bg is a specialized tool for one specific task: removing backgrounds from photos. The tool, developed by Vienna-based company Kaleido, is now part of Canva and is the most well-known solution for automatic background removal.

Typical uses include product photos for Shopify or Amazon, resume photos, and team portraits for websites. Its strength lies in volume: via API or desktop app, you can process up to 500 images per minute, with integrations for Photoshop, Figma, and Zapier. The desktop app processes entire folders locally in a single pass.

Today, Canva or Photoshop can also do the same job with a single click, though there it's part of a larger suite. Remove.bg often produces cleaner results for hair and fine edges. However: The free version only provides low resolutions, full resolution costs credits, and for high volumes, that adds up.

Ideal for businesses and teams that regularly need many background removals, especially via API. For occasional individual images, Canva's built-in background remover is sufficient.
