Best practices

Use good lighting

Well-lit subjects with clear contrast against their background produce the cleanest cutouts. Avoid underexposed or flat images where subject and background blend together.

Clear subject edges

Subjects with well-defined edges — products, people, objects — give the AI more to work with. Loose fabrics, hair, or transparent objects may need touch-up in a separate editor.

Avoid busy backgrounds

A cluttered background with colors similar to your subject (e.g., a person in front of a similarly-toned wall) is harder for the model to separate cleanly. A contrasting background improves accuracy.

Try different source crops

If the result clips part of your subject, try cropping out peripheral distractions before uploading. A tighter crop helps the model focus on the correct subject.
For product photos, a white or neutral solid-color background in the source image consistently produces the cleanest transparent cutout.
