What is the Remove Objects tool?

The object remover erases unwanted things from a photo - a passer-by, a sign, a blemish, a stray wire - and fills the gap so it looks like they were never there. You paint over what you want gone, and the tool reconstructs the area behind it using the surrounding pixels.

Under the hood this is inpainting: you brush a mask over the object, and the image and mask are sent to our server, which generates plausible content to fill the masked area. The cleaned result is shown next to the original for comparison and can be downloaded as a PNG.

How to use the object remover

  • 1. Upload a photo, or drag and drop it onto the tool.
  • 2. Set the brush size and paint over the object you want removed.
  • 3. Run the removal and compare the cleaned image with the original.
  • 4. Download the cleaned image as a PNG.

  • Brush-based masking with an adjustable brush size (5-100px).

  • Free, no account.

Common uses

Cleaning a tourist out of a travel photo, removing a date stamp or watermark area, tidying a product shot, or erasing a distracting object from the background before you post. It saves the painstaking clone-stamp work an editor would otherwise need.

FAQ

How does object removal work?

You paint a mask over the object, then the tool inpaints the area - it generates new pixels based on the surrounding image so the gap blends in.

Is my image uploaded?

Yes. The photo and the mask you paint are sent to our server, which does the inpainting and returns the cleaned image.

What gives the best results?

Smaller objects against a fairly uniform background fill in most cleanly. Large objects or busy, detailed backgrounds are harder to reconstruct convincingly.

What format is the result?

The cleaned image downloads as a PNG, shown alongside the original so you can compare before saving.
