A Python tool and CLI that removes backgrounds from images and videos using the InSPyReNet deep learning model (ACCV 2022). It supports images, videos, and webcam input, producing transparent-background outputs.

Use cases

• remove background from a photo
• make image background transparent
• remove background from video
• extract subject from image with transparent png
• batch remove backgrounds from images
• remove background from webcam feed

When to choose

• you need high-quality AI-based background removal for images or videos
• you want a simple CLI or Python API without building your own matting pipeline
• you need transparent PNGs for photo editing or e-commerce product images

When to avoid

• you need real-time performance on CPU-only hardware
• you need fine-grained manual editing of mattes rather than automated removal
• you work outside the Python/PyTorch ecosystem
