What it does

LocalBG removes backgrounds locally using AI models that run on your own hardware. No image ever leaves your machine. It works on still images, videos, and GIFs, and ships with both a GUI and a full CLI.

• Drop a single file or an entire folder - everything is processed in bulk
• Replace the background with a color, a custom image, or keep it transparent
• Export as PNG, WEBP, or PSD with separate layers
• ProRes 4444 with real alpha channel for video (no green screen needed)
• GPU accelerated on Windows (NVIDIA, AMD, Intel) with CPU fallback

Features

• Bulk processing with no file count or file size limits
• Video and GIF background removal
• Edge despill - removes color bleed from colored backdrops
• Drop shadows and floor reflections
• Auto-center and margin control
• Image resizing and compression
• Custom watermarks and naming
• Save and reuse presets
• Alpha mask export
• AI enhancement (Real-ESRGAN)
• CLI support for automation, Docker, and self-hosted APIs

CLI

# Process a folder
LocalBG ./photos -o ./output
