Koutuxia removes the background from a photo and hands you a transparent PNG. The free path runs a 47 MB BiRefNet-lite model in the browser (WebGPU where available, WASM SIMD elsewhere), so the image never leaves your device and no signup is needed. A paid cloud path handles finer edges, higher resolution and batch jobs. You also get one-click background colour swaps (red, blue, white), a photo restoration mode and direct transparent PNG export. Works from mainland China without a proxy.

I built Koutuxia because every background remover I tried either uploaded my photos to a server or charged per image for a simple cutout. The free path runs a small segmentation model in the browser, so the photo stays on your device; the cloud path is there only for hair and fine edges. It also works from mainland China without a proxy, which most tools in this space do not. Happy to answer questions about running models with WebGPU and WASM in the browser.
