A profile photo with a clean background, ready in seconds.
A recruiter, client, or coworker looks at your photo before reading a single word. Strip out the kitchen, the hallway, or the street behind you and leave just you — ready for LinkedIn, a resume, a badge, or Slack.
Drag to erase or restore parts of the cutout. Scroll/gesture to pan while zoomed in.
Recruiters decide in under 3 seconds
Behavioral studies on recruiting platforms show that the first impression of a profile forms before any text gets read — the photo is the first filter. A cluttered background (a poster on the wall, a messy kitchen, someone walking by) is distracting and reads as careless, even when the rest of the profile is polished.
Neutral or transparent background
Cut the person out and apply a solid background (gray, blue, white), or leave it transparent for badges and internal systems that already have their own background color.
Standardizes the whole team
Teams that take profile photos in different places (home office, the actual office, a conference) end up visually consistent after the cutout — everyone shares the same background on the website or in the company directory.
Fixes a photo taken in a hurry
No need to schedule a corporate photo session: a well-framed selfie with decent light on the face already gets you a professional-looking profile photo once the background is gone.
Framing tips that make a real difference
Head and shoulders, facing the camera
Frame from the chest up, with the camera at eye level. Avoid a low angle shooting upward — it distorts the face and reads as informal or unpolished.
Light in front, never behind
Face a window or light source. Backlighting darkens the face and makes it harder for the automatic cutout to find a clean edge around the hair.
Contrast between you and the background
Clothing that's close in color to the wall confuses the cutout algorithm. Even mild contrast between your outfit and the original background gives a noticeably cleaner result.
High resolution, not heavily compressed
Photos exported from messaging apps lose quality fast. Whenever possible, use the original file straight from the camera or phone before sharing it through another app.

Format and size for every use case
What's the ideal size for a LinkedIn profile photo?
LinkedIn recommends at least 400×400 pixels, in a square crop. After cutting out the background here, export as PNG and crop it to a square before uploading — aim for the face taking up roughly 60% of the frame.
Should I use a transparent PNG or a colored background for a resume?
For a resume in PDF form, a solid light background (white or gray) tends to look cleaner — a transparent PNG can sometimes pick up an odd edge depending on the software used to build the PDF. For a company badge or an internal system that already sets its own background color, transparent is the way to go.
Does it work for a Slack or Teams avatar?
It does. Those platforms accept a square image with either a transparent or colored background, and the cutout here already comes out as a PNG — just upload it directly, no conversion needed.
Do I need to install any software?
No. All the processing happens right in your browser, on your own device — the photo is never sent to any server.
What background color works best for a corporate headshot?
A soft neutral gray or a muted blue reads as professional across almost every industry and doesn't clash with most company brand colors. If your team has an established palette, matching the background to it (even loosely) makes headshots feel like they belong together on a website or in a directory — that's easy to do once the original background is gone.
