How it works

  1. Upload your photo

    Upload a clear photo showing the area you want to edit. Good lighting and sharp focus help the AI deliver better professional background results. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB.

    Expect: Most edits complete in 20-45 seconds. Complex changes may need 1-2 refinements.
  2. Describe your edit

    Type what you want: 'Add a professional background suitable for a business headshot.' Be specific about details for best results. The AI understands natural language — no technical skills needed.

    Tip: For best edge quality, use photos where the subject contrasts with the background.

    Copy one of these to get started:

    Corporate Standard Add a professional blue-gray gradient background suitable for a corporate headshot
    Modern Office Add a professional background of a modern office with blurred bookshelves and soft lighting
    Clean White Add a clean white professional background with soft shadows

    2 more prompts
    Startup Vibe Add a professional background of a bright, modern workspace with plants and natural light
    Conference Add a professional conference or event backdrop with subtle branding-style background
  3. Review the result

    Use the before/after slider to compare results. Check that the professional background edit blends naturally with surrounding areas — look for consistent lighting, color matching, and clean edges throughout.
