How to use Ideogram Remove Background

Getting started

Prepare a foreground cutout from a product or portrait photo. Use the resulting transparent image when placing the subject onto a different background.

Review your result

View the cutout against light and dark backgrounds. Check hair, glass, gaps and contact shadows for missing foreground or retained background.

Inputs and settings

Send image_url with a JPEG, PNG or WebP source; the provider specifies a maximum file size of 10 MB. This operation does not need a prompt or selection mask.

Keep an export with transparency. Converting the cutout to JPEG removes its alpha channel; inspect the final composite separately.
