Easy FREE Background Remover Tool

I Have Found A FREE Easy To Use Background Remover

Deposit Photos have just released a free to use background remover tool. Basically you just upload an image and thei AI powered tool removes the background
I can't attest to it being superior quality with things like hair or fur,however even Photoshop have only just released an excellent tool to cut out shapes with hair in the last 2021 update. Sure you could always do it but it was a mied method of different steps and now you just click the "refine hair" button - but I digress..
You simply go to this URL https://depositphotos.com/bgremover.html and upload your image.
It boasts that it takes about a second to work and so far yes that seems to be true.
It will work on all types of images:
  • people
  • objects
  • graphics
  • animals

It is completely free to use, however you do have to sign up for an account so you can download your images.

I Tested The Background Removal Tool With These 3 Photos


This first one it really struggled with, however I kind of expected it to. There is a heap of shaddows in this photo and its very busy. The childrens skin tone is also very close to the color of the ground which I think would have confused it.

This image I also didn't expect to fare very well. Like I said, hair and fur is a nightmare to cut out and this one wasn't much better. The biggest question here is why it cut out his rump? Its a similar color to the rest of him and a totally different color from the background so that seemed weird.
I  sn't he gorgeous? I took this photo in the Masai Mara in Kenya and this was the day that we got caught in a Wildebeast migration! So cool!

This final image it did really well with.
It appears the key is to have nice clean lines and a heavily contrasting background.  Obviously this woman and her baby are very bright which would have helped, however from experimenting with these 3 images, it is clear that you need to have a clean clear photo with a very different background for any level of success. 

So there you have it. If you do need a background removal tool and your photo meets those guidelines, check it out and let me know how you got on.
