AI image tools
Open-source models that run on your own device. Each tool downloads its model once — between 1 and 26 MB — and your browser keeps it, so later visits start instantly. The photo you edit is never uploaded.
All AI image tools
- Background RemoverCut the background out of a photo of a person with an AI model that runs on your device.
- Image UpscalerEnlarge a small image 2× or 4× with an AI model that runs on your device.
- Background BlurBlur the background of a photo while keeping the subject sharp — on your device.
- Privacy BlurFind and blur faces in a photo before you share it — nothing leaves your device.
How these differ from the other tools
The converters and utilities under Image tools use your browser’s built-in image engine and start in milliseconds. These tools run a neural network instead. That means a one-time model download, a moment of work on your graphics chip or CPU, and results that depend on the image — a portrait segments more reliably than a cluttered scene, and a detector can miss a face that is tiny or turned away. Each tool page says exactly what its model is good at and where it falls short.
What does not change is where your photo goes: nowhere. The models themselves come from Hugging Face as ordinary site files, and you can confirm in your browser’s network tab that the image is never sent. Read more in how in-browser processing works.
Most of these tools work best alongside the ordinary ones: cut a background out, then compress the PNG; blur a background, then crop to the subject; upscale a small image, then resize it to the exact dimensions you need.
Guides to on-device photo editing
All guides →- How to Remove the Background from an ImageYou want the subject without whatever is behind it — for a product listing, a profile picture, a slide, or a sticker. Here is how to do it in a browser without sending the photo anywhere, and how to tell in advance whether it will work well.
- How to Make an Image Background TransparentA transparent background lets an image sit on anything — a coloured slide, a website, a T-shirt mock-up — without a white box around it. Getting one is a two-part problem: separating the subject, and saving in a format that can hold transparency. Most failures are the second part.
- How to Upscale an Image Without Losing Quality"Without losing quality" is the phrase everyone searches and no tool can literally promise. Enlarging an image means inventing pixels that weren't there. The real question is whether the invented pixels look right — and modern super-resolution models are genuinely good at that, within limits worth knowing before you start.
- How to Increase Image ResolutionA form rejects your photo for "low resolution". A printer says 300 DPI. A website wants 1200 pixels wide. These sound like the same problem and they are not. Sorting out which one you have is most of the work.
- How to Blur the Background of a PhotoA blurred background does two things at once: it makes the subject stand out, and it hides whatever was behind them — the messy desk, the other people, the screen you'd rather not show. Phones fake it with a depth sensor. In a browser, a model finds the subject and does the rest.
- How to Blur Faces in a Photo Before Sharing ItThe photo is good and you want to post it. It also has your kid's classmates in it, or colleagues who didn't sign up to be on your feed, or a stranger who happened to be in frame. Blurring their faces lets you share the moment without publishing their identities. Here is how to do it properly — including the part where you check the tool's work.
