FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is an AI video background remover?
It separates the subject from the background in video, frame by frame, so the background can be made transparent or replaced. It does the job a green screen and a chroma key would normally do, but after filming rather than during.
Do I need a green screen?
No. That is the point — the separation is inferred from the footage rather than keyed off a known colour, so ordinary rooms work.
How clean are the edges?
Good on clear subject-background separation; harder where hair meets a busy background or where motion blurs the boundary.
Can I replace the background with something generated?
Yes. Once the subject is isolated, a new background can be generated behind them in the same workspace.
