About this tool
Background Remover uses a BFS flood-fill algorithm starting from all four corners of the image to detect and remove uniform background colours. Adjust the tolerance to handle gradients and subtle colour variations.
How it works

- 2The tool samples the four corner pixels to detect the background colour.
- 3BFS flood-fill removes any pixel within the tolerance threshold.
- 4Enable Smoothing for softer edges on the removed areas.
