Remove Backgrounds. No Internet Required.
Strip photo backgrounds instantly with on-device AI. No uploads, no cloud processing, no watermarks — runs entirely on your device.
Pluto Photos includes a powerful AI background removal tool that runs entirely on your machine. Unlike online services that upload your photos to remote servers, everything stays local and private.
How It Works
- Open any photo in the editor
- Click Remove Background
- The AI processes the image locally in seconds
- Save the result as a transparent PNG
100% Local Processing
This is the key difference. Services like remove.bg, Canva, and Adobe require an internet connection and upload your images to their servers. Pluto Photos bundles the AI model directly in the app — no internet connection is ever needed.
Your photos never leave your computer. Not even temporarily.
