The first time, the page downloads the AI model, 208 MB, and keeps it for next time.
Free tool
Remove objects from a photo.
Take a stranger, a sign, a cable, a date stamp or a stray object out of a photo. Paint over it and an open AI model, LaMa, fills the space with what should be behind it. Repeat as often as you like, undo any step, and save the photo at its own size. It runs in this tab, so the photo is never uploaded.
This runs in your browser. Your photos are never uploaded.
How it works
Three steps, nothing to install.
02 / Paint
Paint over the object
Cover it fully, with a little margin. Its shadow too, if it has one.
03 / Remove
Remove, repeat, save
Paint again to fix a spot, undo a step, then download the photo.
Questions
Good to know.
Is my photo uploaded?
No. The AI model is downloaded to your browser, from Hugging Face, the open model library, and runs there, so the photo never leaves your computer.
Which AI model is it?
LaMa (big-lama), an open image inpainting model from Samsung AI Center researchers, released under the Apache 2.0 licence, in an ONNX version made by Carve. It was trained to fill large holes in photos so the result matches the surroundings.
What works best?
Objects in front of simple or repeating backgrounds: sky, grass, sand, walls, floors, water, a plain table. Large objects in front of detailed scenes, like faces or text behind them, are harder: the filled area can look smudged. Removing a big object in a few smaller strokes often looks better.
Does it lower the photo's quality?
Only inside what you paint. The model works on a 512 pixel square around the painted area; everything outside the paint keeps its original pixels. Photos larger than 4096 pixels are made 4096 pixels on the long side.
Can I remove a watermark?
Only from photos you own or have the right to edit. Removing someone else's watermark to use their photo breaks their copyright.
Which browsers work?
Current Chrome, Edge, Safari and Firefox. Browsers with WebGPU use the graphics card; others use the processor, which is slower.
