Best suited to people

The segmentation model is designed for people and portraits. Product shots, animals, complex hair, motion blur, and low-contrast edges may require manual refinement or a different tool.

Local model processing

The MediaPipe model loads in the browser and processes the image locally. The selected photo is not uploaded to WebUtils.
