Photo feature
Remove a photo's background in one tap

Background remover: what it does well
A dedicated cut-out model
Background removal runs on Bria's background remover, a model made for separating subjects, rather than on a general image generator, so the subject itself is not redrawn.
No prompt needed
There is nothing to describe. Add the photo, tap create, and download the result from History.
Ready for the next step
Pair it with Change Scene or the AI photo editor when you want a new background rather than none at all.

Questions about Background remover
Is the background really transparent?
Yes. The result is an image with a transparent background around your subject, so it sits cleanly on any color or design.
How many credits does the background remover use?
Each Clear Background edit costs 25 credits. The 7-day introduction ($1.99, 240 credits) covers 9 edits, and the Pro plan's 2,200 monthly credits cover about 88 edits. The exact price for your settings is shown on the Create button before you start.
Can it remove the background from product photos?
Yes. Products, people, pets and objects all work, as long as the photo has a clear main subject.
Does the background remover change my subject?
No. The tool separates the subject from the background without redrawing it, so faces, logos and printed text stay as they were.
Is there a free background remover in Banana Studio?
No. Banana Studio has no free tier; every edit, including this one, uses credits from a plan. The price for this tool is listed on this page.
Can I put a new background behind the cut-out?
Yes. Use Change Scene in the Editor and describe the new place, or use Change a photo in Create to place the subject in a scene you describe.
