Remove background from GIF
Remove an animated GIF’s background locally. Refine every frame and download a transparent result.
Free to use. No signup. Your files stay on your device.
Remove an animated background, frame by frame
Open your GIF and let subject detection build a new mask for each frame. A moving subject gets a moving mask, rather than a cutout copied from the first frame.
Choose the removal method that fits your GIF
Automatic mode works best with a clearly defined foreground subject. For graphics on a flat background, choose solid color mode and adjust the tolerance.
Refine a GIF cutout before you download
Use edge cleanup to reduce leftover background color. Preview on a checkerboard, white, or dark surface to catch fringes before export.
Keep your original file private
The original stays in browser memory. Processing is free, requires no signup, and does not upload your media. The first automatic run downloads model assets.
How to use this tool

Frequently asked questions
How can I remove background from GIF without Photoshop?
Open the GIF here, select a removal method, process it, and download your chosen format. No installed editor is needed.

How do I remove a white background from a GIF?
Use solid color mode, pick white, and adjust tolerance. Enable edge cleanup to reduce a white fringe.
Can I remove a moving background from a GIF?
Automatic subject detection can handle complex scenes, but results depend on subject separation. Preview the full animation before exporting.
How do I keep transparent edges after background removal?
Choose transparent GIF for binary transparency, or APNG and PNG frames for full alpha transparency.
