Features

AI Background Removal

Remove backgrounds automatically with a locally-run AI model. No data ever leaves your browser.

15 Built-in Photo Specs

CN domestic (1-inch, 2-inch, ID card), international visa (US, JP, Schengen, UK, Canada) and general (passport, driver license). Custom sizes also supported.

Auto Face Alignment

Face detection places your portrait in the correct position for each spec. Fine-tune with drag, zoom, and rotate controls.

Print-Ready Layouts

Export single photos or auto-packed print sheets for 5×3.5in, 6×4in, and A4 paper — ready for photo lab or home printer.

Size & DPI Control

Choose between JPG and PNG, set DPI (72/300), and compress to a target file size for form uploads that have KB limits.

100% Browser-Based

Everything runs locally using WebAssembly + Canvas. Your photo never leaves your device. No account needed.

How to Create an ID Photo

Upload a front-facing photo by dragging it onto the upload area, clicking to browse, or pressing Ctrl+V to paste from clipboard.
Choose your photo specification from the dropdown — 14 built-in options from Chinese ID sizes to international visa formats.
Click "Remove Background" to let the AI separate you from the background. Wait for the model to download on first use.
Select a background color — white, blue, red, light gray, gradient blue, or a custom color of your choice.
Review the auto-crop: the face should be centred. Use drag to reposition, scroll to zoom, or the rotate buttons for fine adjustment.
Configure export options: format (JPG/PNG), DPI, maximum file size for upload portals, and optional print layout.
Click "Download" to save your photo — or "Download ZIP" to get both the single photo and the print sheet at once.

Tips for Best Results

✓ Use a well-lit, front-facing photo with a neutral background for best AI removal quality.
✓ Photos with complex backgrounds (trees, patterned walls) may have minor edge artifacts — starting with a simpler background helps.
✓ For forms that specify a file size limit (e.g., "≤ 30 KB"), enable the Max KB option in the export panel to auto-compress.
✓ If face detection fails, you can still manually position the crop box — the yellow warning helps you know when to adjust.
✓ The model download only happens once. After the first removal, subsequent edits complete much faster.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my photo uploaded to any server?

No. The entire process runs inside your browser. The AI model is downloaded once and cached locally — your image data is never sent over the network.

Which photo specifications are supported?

14 built-in specs covering: Chinese domestic (1-inch 25×35mm, 2-inch 35×49mm, small 1-inch, large 1-inch, resident ID card), international visas (US 2×2in, Japan, Schengen, Canada, UK), and general (passport, driver license, degree certificate, social security card). You can also create custom sizes.

Why is the background removal slow the first time?

The first run downloads the AI model (~50MB total) and caches it in your browser for subsequent use. After the initial download, removal takes 8-12 seconds for a typical photo.

How do I get the exact file size my application needs?

Select JPG format and set a "Max KB" value (e.g., 30 KB). The tool will automatically find the right quality setting to hit your target size within ±5% tolerance.

Can I print the photos myself?

Yes. The "Print Layout" feature packs multiple photos onto standard photo paper (5×3.5in, 6×4in) or A4. Download the sheet and print at home or take it to a print shop.

Does the face detection work for all skin tones and lighting conditions?

MediaPipe Face Detection works across diverse skin tones. For best results, use a well-lit, front-facing photo with a neutral expression.
