How it works

You draw the mask, not AI

Use the Paint brush to mark exactly what stays sharp. AI background removers often miss hair, glasses, or complex edges β€” you get pixel-level control here.

Edge Feather for natural look

A hard mask edge looks fake. The Edge Feather slider blurs the boundary between your painted area and the blurred background, mimicking real lens bokeh.

Undo works per stroke

Every brush stroke is tracked. Hit ↩ Undo to remove the last stroke β€” you won't lose your whole mask by accident.

100% private, zero upload

Everything runs via the Canvas API directly in your browser. Your photo never touches a server. Works offline once the page loads.
