Remove Background
Remove, replace, color-fill, or blur a video's background — no green screen required.
What is Remove Background?
Remove Background detects the main subject in your footage and cuts, replaces, recolors, or blurs everything behind them — the same idea as a green screen, but without needing an actual green screen.
There are 4 modes, not just an on/off toggle. Remove cuts the background entirely (transparent). Replace swaps it for one of a built-in library of preset backgrounds (gradients and scenes). Color fills it with a single flat color you pick by hex code — useful for a clean, on-brand solid background. Blur keeps the real background but softens it so the subject stays the focus.
It works frame-by-frame across the whole clip, so the subject stays cut out correctly even as they move.

Who it's for
Product reviewers
Replace mode: drop your product demo onto a clean or branded background without filming in a studio.
Talking-head creators

Remove mode: cut a subject out to composite onto reaction backgrounds.
On-brand solid backgrounds
Color mode: fill with your exact brand hex color instead of picking from generic presets.
