How the cutout works
Send the current layer to the AI tool and the editor queues a background-removal job. The result replaces the layer’s content on a new editable layer, so the original is still available underneath. The first run after a server restart can take longer while the model loads; later runs are usually much quicker.
What you can do next
Refine the result with a mask, soften the edge, add a new background image or a solid colour, and keep the subject on its own layer for a template. The cutout is not a flattened PNG, so a later change does not mean starting over.
- Retouch the mask without destroying the original
- Combine with text, shapes and adjustment layers
- Use the cutout in a template or export it directly
Credits and availability
Background removal needs a signed-in account and costs one credit per run on the built-in model. Provider-served alternatives may cost more and are available only when an administrator has connected and enabled that provider. It is not an unlimited free service.
