RMBG is a free online image background removal (image masking) application available across multiple platforms. It incorporates various open-source AI models (RMBG itself is also open-source) to assist users in automatically removing backgrounds without requiring any configuration or account registration. This service supports batch processing of up to 20 images at a time, with each image not exceeding 5 MB. APP Recommendations
RMBG can be used directly in a browser or downloaded as an application for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Its standout feature is privacy and data security: the background removal process runs solely on the user's device, and images are never uploaded to third-party servers.
The Free Resources Network Community has compiled a handy guide titled “Online Background Removal Tools: 39 Free Online Tools Recommended with Tutorials.” If you find RMBG unable to correctly remove backgrounds from your images, besides switching to different AI models, you may also consider trying other services.
