Media.io Background Remover
Shenzhen, China
What it is
Media.io Background Remover is a web tool for removing and replacing backgrounds in images of people, products, animals, and objects. After upload, its AI analyzes the image and erases the background, including around hair, fur, flames, and transparent or semi-transparent objects. The result can be downloaded as a transparent PNG. Users can replace the background with a solid color, an image from Media.io’s library, or a custom photo. Batch processing is supported. Ecommerce templates and aspect-ratio presets are described for Amazon, eBay, and Shopify, while ID-photo options include official size presets for passports, visas, and identity photos in multiple countries. Commercial use is allowed. The tool does not support GIF images; the page suggests converting a still image to JPG or PNG first. A Free Trial plan is listed as free with three daily check-in credits, one image, 720p exports, and a watermark. Premium is also shown at no cost with a three-day trial, then annual billing; paid service is listed from 11.99 /mo.
