Free Video Background Remover

Yes. Fuzz Puppy is free, requires no signup, and does not add a watermark to your downloaded video. You can process as many clips as you like within the per-clip duration limits.

No. The video background remover does not require payment, a subscription, a credit card, or an account.

Fuzz Puppy is free, adds no watermark, and processes the source video locally instead of uploading it to a processing server. It also lets you export transparent MOV or WebM, or MP4 with a replacement background.

Upload an MP4 or MOV and choose AI removal (MODNet or BEN2) or Green Screen Removal for a solid-color background. Select transparent WebM where supported, transparent MOV on desktop, or add a replacement background for MP4, and start processing. Keep the tab open until you can preview and download the result.

The tool accepts MP4 and MOV files up to approximately 600 MB. Desktop AI removal supports clips up to 60 seconds; Green Screen Removal supports up to 5 minutes. For longer uploads, Prepare video keeps the beginning within that limit before resizing or encoding. Mobile processes up to 15 seconds.

WebGPU is a browser technology that lets websites use the computer graphics processor for demanding tasks. Fuzz Puppy uses WebGPU to run video background removal locally on your device instead of uploading each frame to a processing server. You can open WebGPU Report to confirm that your browser detects a WebGPU adapter and review the features your GPU exposes.

Supported mobile browsers offer MODNet AI removal or Green Screen Removal with strength and feathering controls. Process the first 15 seconds, up to 720p at 24 fps. Export transparent WebM when the browser passes an export check, or add a replacement background for MP4. Only AI removal requires WebGPU. Desktop supports transparent MOV, AI clips up to 60 seconds and green screen clips up to 5 minutes.

Use an up-to-date desktop version of Chrome, Edge or Safari with WebGPU enabled. Green Screen Removal does not require WebGPU. Mobile supports short videos with MODNet or Green Screen Removal. Transparent WebM is available on mobile and desktop after a browser export check. Desktop also supports BEN2 and transparent MOV; BEN2 requires FP16.

No. Your video never leaves your computer. Background removal runs in your browser.

Your device processes every video frame locally. Speed depends on your GPU, video length, resolution, and selected model. MODNet is faster, while BEN2 spends more time refining detailed edges.

Browsers throttle background tabs. Keep the remover visible while it runs so frame extraction, AI processing, and video encoding can continue reliably.

Yes. Choose a solid color, upload a JPG, PNG or WebP image, or upload a background video. Images and videos fill the frame with a centered crop. Background videos loop when shorter than the source and their audio is muted. The result is an MP4 with the original video audio. Uploaded background dimensions are the default; choose Original video size to keep the source dimensions. The foreground fills the canvas with a centered crop, without stretching. Mobile size limits still apply.

Yes. Remove the background with AI or Green Screen Removal, leave New background set to Remove background only, and select Transparent WebM. The tool checks whether your browser can export VP9 with transparency before enabling the option. Download the result for a compatible editor or website; some players display transparent areas as black.

Choose Green Screen Removal (chroma key), then a green or blue preset or a custom key color. Increase strength to remove more similar colors and adjust edge feathering for a softer transition. Inspect the preview before exporting. This mode does not download an AI model or require WebGPU.

Choose MODNet when speed matters or your video mainly shows a person. It is a smaller AI model designed for quickly separating people from their backgrounds, so it works on more computers and is a good default for longer videos. Choose BEN2 when quality matters more than speed. It is a larger model that examines the subject and then spends extra effort improving uncertain edges. This can produce cleaner results around hair, clothing, small details, and objects that are not people. BEN2 processes more image detail, so it runs more slowly and requires a newer GPU with FP16 WebGPU support.

BEN2 requires FP16 WebGPU support. If your browser or GPU does not expose FP16, use MODNet or update Chrome, Edge, and your GPU drivers.

Choose transparent WebM for compatible editors and websites; some players show its transparency as black. Choose transparent alpha MOV on desktop for compatible editors. Add a color, image or video background to export an MP4 with that background.

MP4 with a replacement background works in common video players and editors. Transparent MOV can be composited directly in compatible versions of CapCut, Blender, and other editors that support alpha video.

Refresh the page, use the latest desktop Chrome or Edge, and open WebGPU Report to confirm that your browser detects a WebGPU adapter. Then try a shorter or lower-resolution MP4 or MOV. If BEN2 is unavailable, switch to MODNet; BEN2 additionally needs the shader-f16 feature shown in the report. Close other GPU-heavy tabs or apps if processing stops or the browser reports a GPU reset.

Fuzz Puppy attempts to preserve the source audio, including an AAC compatibility fallback. If browser muxing fails, it may produce a video-only result and display a warning.

The MOV contains a real alpha channel, but QuickTime Player can be picky about alpha codecs. The file may work correctly in an editor such as CapCut or Blender. To create a ProRes 4444 copy for QuickTime playback, run this FFmpeg command in the folder containing your downloaded MOV:

Use footage with a clearly visible subject, good lighting, and strong contrast between the subject and background. Try BEN2 for hair and fine edges, and trim long clips before processing.
