How to Remove a Video Background
Upload your video (MP4, MOV, or WebM, up to 200MB). Choose your replacement background — a solid color for clean presentations, a blurred version of the original for that professional Zoom look, a custom image for creative compositing, or fully transparent for use in video editors like Premiere or DaVinci Resolve. Adjust edge sensitivity and smoothing for the cleanest cutout, then click Process and watch the AI work through each frame.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does AI video background removal work?
The tool uses MediaPipe's Selfie Segmentation model running in your browser via TensorFlow.js. It processes each video frame through the AI model to create a person mask, then composites the person onto your chosen background. Everything runs on your device — no server uploads.
What backgrounds can I use?
Solid colors (white, green screen, blue, black, or any custom color), a blurred version of the original background (like Zoom), a custom uploaded image, or fully transparent for compositing in video editors.
How long does processing take?
A 30-second video typically processes in 1-3 minutes on a modern computer with a dedicated GPU. Integrated graphics may take 2-5 minutes. Keep clips under 60 seconds for best results.
Is my video uploaded to any server?
No. The entire process runs locally in your browser using TensorFlow.js and MediaPipe. Your video never leaves your device.
What format is the output?
WebM format, which is supported by most modern browsers and video editors. For MP4, run the output through a video converter tool.
