You can pick a clean white background, a black background, or Custom. With Custom, you describe the background you want, such as a soft beige studio wall, and the AI creates it behind your subject.

White backgrounds for product photos and listings
Marketplaces and online stores often ask for product photos on a clean white background. Instead of setting up a light box, you can add a white background to a photo you already have: upload it, pick White, and the AI replaces the room, table, or clutter behind your product.
It is a quick way to change a photo background to white for a whole set of listings, so every product sits on the same plain backdrop. Check the marketplace's own image rules for size and framing before you upload.
Black and custom backgrounds
White is not the only option. Pick Black for a bold, high-contrast look that makes watches, jewelry, and other bright or metallic products stand out, or to give a portrait with a busy background a clean, dramatic look.
To change the background color of a photo to something else, or to put your subject in a new scene, choose Custom and describe what you want, such as “a soft beige studio wall” or “a marble kitchen counter”. The AI photo background changer generates that background behind your subject.


Passport-size photo with a white background
Many passport and ID photos need a plain white or light background. If your portrait was taken against a wall or a busy room, you can use the background changer to put it on a plain white background.
Passport and visa photo rules differ by country and are strict about size, lighting, head position, and how much a photo may be edited. Always check the official requirements of the authority issuing your document before you submit a photo. PerfectifyAI does not guarantee that an edited photo will be accepted.
What it works best on
The background changer gives the cleanest results on photos with one clear subject, sharp edges, and good contrast against the original background, such as a product on a table or a person in front of a wall.
Fine or flyaway hair, fur, glass, and other transparent or reflective objects are harder, and the edges may need a second look. Compare the result with the original at full size before you use it.
