Background removal

Upload an image, get a transparent PNG. Seven models for different kinds of pictures.

This tool ran on a GPU at my place, and it's been offline since I moved to New York. Below is how it worked. The engineering behind all of them is in austn.net's GPU tools.

Upload an image and get it back with the background removed, as a transparent PNG.

How it worked

Different pictures need different models, so you could pick one:

Model Good for
u2net General use, the default
u2netp A smaller, faster u2net
u2net_human_seg People
u2net_cloth_seg Clothing
silueta A lighter general model
isnet-general-use General use, sharper edges
isnet-anime Illustrations and anime

The model name is checked against that list on the server, so nothing else reaches the workflow.
