Video Background Remover — cut a subject out without a green screen

Cut a subject out of moving footage without a green screen. Upload a clip and get a clean transparent cutout you can place over a new background, a brand color or a fresh scene — no keying, no tape on the wall, no even lighting to set up.

Green-screen results without the green screen

Traditional keying needs a physical green backdrop and even lighting. AI video matting separates the subject from whatever is actually behind them, frame by frame, so you can shoot anywhere and still drop the person or product onto a clean background in post. That means a phone clip filmed in a normal room can end up looking like it was shot in a studio.

Nearby tools that pair with it

Video matting rarely stands alone: the image background remover cuts out stills, and the in-browser editor removes the background from images you place on a timeline. Use this page whenever the subject is moving footage.

A simple one-click flow

Drag in a clip, preview it privately, sign in, and download the cutout — credits are spent only when the run succeeds. There is no complicated masking timeline to learn — the model does the separation and hands you back a clean transparent result ready to composite. Because the cutout ships as a transparent file, you can drop it straight onto a new backdrop in any editor without keying it a second time: the heavy matting work is done once, up front, and the file you download is ready to use as it is.

How video background removal works

  1. The Video Background Remover with a clip loaded and previewed in the browser, with the preview background menu above the Remove background button.

    Step 1

    Upload your clip

    Drag in a video file and preview it privately before anything runs.

  2. The uploaded clip preview beside a clear sign-in prompt indicating that an account is needed to run video matting.

    Step 2

    Sign in to run

    Video matting is a heavier operation, so a run uses credits and needs a free account.

  3. The same moving subject visibly separated from the room, displayed over a transparency grid to show AI matting in progress or completed.

    Step 3

    AI separates the subject

    The model cuts the subject from the background across the whole clip.

  4. A finished transparent cutout of the subject presented as a downloadable video asset, ready to composite onto a new scene.

    Step 4

    Download the cutout

    Download a clean transparent cutout ready to composite onto any new background.

Shoot anywhere

Video matting removes the need for a physical green screen.

The AI handles the separation from whatever was actually behind the subject.

Consistent across frames

A good video cutout holds steady as the subject moves.

The matting model tracks the subject frame to frame so the edges stay clean.

Composite freely

With the background gone you can place the subject over a brand color, a location plate or a fresh scene.

Transparent output

The cutout downloads as a transparent WebM, so you can drop it straight onto any backdrop.

No baked-in background to key out again.

Same simple flow

It follows the same upload, run and download pattern as every other AI tool here.

Pay only for results

Credits are spent only on a successful run; a failed run is refunded.
