- 01
Open your file
PNG, JPG, WebP, AVIF, GIF, or BMP up to 10 MB in the free workspace (the AI converter takes PNG, JPG, WebP, or AVIF). Existing SVGs can be edited in the free workspace.
- 02
Trace and inspect
Preview the shapes and colors. Clear logos and flat artwork usually trace more predictably than photos.

Working with your SVG
AI White Background Detection
Our AI doesn't just remove white pixels — it intelligently detects the subject and separates it from the white background, preserving subtle shadows and anti-aliased edges.
No White Halos
Cheap tools leave white fringing around edges. Our AI handles anti-aliasing properly, producing clean cutouts that look natural on any colored background.
Works on Off-White Too
Not perfectly white? No problem. Our AI handles off-white, light gray, cream, and slightly textured white backgrounds just as cleanly.
Instant Results
Upload your white-background image and get a transparent PNG after processing. No tracing, no wand tool, no manual cleanup required.
Then Vectorize to SVG
Need infinite scalability? Remove the white background first, then vectorize to SVG. Clean input produces cleaner vectors — the professional workflow.
Preserves Quality
Full-resolution output with no compression. The tool estimates the subject and removes the background. Inspect fine edges and details in the resulting PNG.

Why White Backgrounds Need AI Removal
The White Halo Problem
Simple color-based removal (magic wand, color range) leaves white fringing around edges because of anti-aliasing. Every pixel at the boundary is a blend of subject and white — removing pure white leaves these semi-white pixels visible, especially on dark backgrounds.
AI Solves This
AI background removal understands the boundary between subject and background at a semantic level. It generates a proper alpha matte that handles semi-transparent edges, producing clean cutouts without halos on any background color.
Common White Background Sources
- Logo files saved as JPEG (no transparency support)
- Product photos on white studio backgrounds
- Scanned documents and business cards
- Clipart and graphics from old software
- Screenshots and exported charts
- Icons and UI elements on white canvases
