Portrait background removed instantly on Mac — under one second with on-device AI
Speed

On-device means no waiting. Ever.

Under a second. Every time.

The AI runs entirely on your Mac — no cloud round-trip, no server latency, no waiting for a connection. From right-click to finished PNG in under a second, whether you have internet or not.

Portrait background removal 100% on-device — photos never leave your Mac
Privacy

On your Mac. Never anywhere else.

100% on-device. Nothing uploaded.

Every pixel stays on your machine. No image is ever sent to a server. No cloud processing, no temporary storage, no exceptions. For photographers handling client work — that's not a feature, it's a requirement.

Quality

Trained for people. Optimised for edges.

Sharpest on-device edges, period.

The AI is specifically trained on human subjects — hair, skin tone, complex silhouettes. It won't always catch every flyaway, but it's the sharpest result you'll get without uploading your photo anywhere.

Every time I need an artist press photo cut out, it's done before I even think about switching apps. Instant, clean, no fuss. I can't go back.

Thumbnail workflow used to mean 10 minutes in Photoshop. Now it's a right-click. Portraits come out perfectly — even messy hair. That's wild.

I do headshots for artist bios and press kits constantly. Portrait is the one I reach for every time — the speed and the quality are both exactly what I need.
