Image Cutout Examples
We ran these ten pictures through the tool once each. Five were uploaded by people who use Image2Layer and agreed to share them; we made the other five with an image generator. Every cutout you see is exactly what came back. Load one into the tool above to see every piece.
Three friends in a park
Each woman comes back as her own PNG, and the jackets and dresses come back again as separate parts. The trees and the grass return with holes where the three stood.
Backpack listing image
The backpack, the laptop, the wallet, the phone case, the power bank and the stylus each come back on their own, and so do the line icons and every line of text. The yellow sunglasses did not come back as a piece of their own.
Cozy living room
The armchair, the yellow chaise, the coffee table, the rug, every pillow and every plant come out on their own. The sofa comes back with gaps where its pillows sat.
Holiday door cover ad
Santa, the reindeer and the snowman come back whole, along with both wreaths, the three lanterns, the candles, the doormat and every line of the banner text.
Two puppies on a sofa
Both puppies come out whole, ears and fur included, and so does the patterned pillow behind them. The sofa and the wall return with holes where they lay.
Teddy bear pattern
Six teddy bears and every bow, rose, flower cluster, cloud and heart of the pattern come back as their own PNGs, from one picture.
Breakfast table
Every pancake stack, fried egg and berry comes out on its own, plus the fork, the butter and the jam. The plates come back as rings, with holes where the food sat.
Pixel game screen
The Select button, the title, each palm tree, the road markings and the guardrail come back as separate sprites, and the sky and clouds as background pieces. The empty car panel in the middle did not come back as a piece of its own.
Fruit on a green table
Each piece of fruit is a separate cutout, from the peach halves to the single strawberry. The AI named many pieces twice, and the tool kept one copy of each.

What This Image Cutout Tool Does Best
Every picture below is one of the real results above.
Cut Out Every Object in One Go
One upload, one run, every object the AI can find. The fruit picture above came back as 24 separate pieces: peach halves, berries, oranges, a strawberry and a kiwi slice. Pick what you need instead of cutting each object out by hand.
Cut out objects from an imageYour picture
CutoutSame pixelsZoomed in on the ear: the fur is untouched, the wall behind it is goneYour Own Pixels, Nothing Redrawn
Each cutout is copied straight from your picture. The AI decides where an object ends and does not paint a new one, so fur, labels and textures stay exactly as they were. Compare the puppy photo with its cutout, zoomed in on the ear: the fur is the same.
Cut out a photoPeople and Pets on Their Own
Each person in a group photo comes back as a separate cutout, and so does each pet. Drop them on any background you like, and check fine hair and fur at full size before you print.

A Layered PSD with Every Object in Place
Choose PSD and each piece you keep becomes a named layer at the exact spot it had in your picture, with the original as the bottom layer. Open it in Photoshop, Photopea or GIMP to move, hide or restyle each object. Pick a layer to see where it sits.

Parts as Well as Whole Objects
The AI also returns parts. The three friends came back whole, and then their jackets and dresses came back as five more pieces, which makes it quick to recolor clothes or try a new outfit. Parts keep only what is visible, so an open jacket comes back in two halves with a gap where the top shows through. Image to Layers rebuilds hidden areas.
Cut out clothes and partsWho Uses Cut Out Image
One run of the same tool, four very different jobs.
Online shops
Cut products out of a styled photo for listings, banners and marketplace images, and keep the props as extras.
Game and app makers
Pull characters, items and parts out of concept art as PNGs, ready for an engine, a sprite sheet or a rig.
Designers
Take the pieces of a photo into a layered PSD and rebuild the layout in a new size, or reuse them in a mockup.
Social posts and stickers
Turn a sticker sheet, an emoji set or a pet photo into single stickers for posts and chats.
Cut Out Image FAQ
Answers about cutting out objects, files, price and privacy.
Upload the picture above and start the cutout. In about 30 seconds the AI returns each object it finds as a transparent PNG. Keep the ones you want and download them as PNGs, a ZIP or a layered PSD.
Yes, that is what this tool is for. One run finds every object the AI can see, so a group photo gives you each person and a product shot gives you each product. The examples on this page returned between 12 and 138 pieces per picture.
Yes. People, pets and other animals come back as their own cutouts, and clothes, scarves or collars often come back as separate parts too. Fine hair and fur follow the edge the AI finds, so check them at full size when you need a perfect outline.
Each cutout is a transparent PNG cropped to the object. You can download single PNGs, all the ones you keep in a ZIP, or a layered PSD with every piece as a named layer in its original spot and your picture at the bottom.
No. The AI only decides where each object ends. The pixels inside come straight from your picture, so they keep its detail and its resolution, up to 2048 pixels on the longest side.
Each picture costs 10 credits, however many objects it finds. Credit packs need no subscription, and if a run fails the credits go back to your balance.
Your picture and its cutouts belong to your account and are not shown to other people. Like other results on Image2Layer, they are kept for 30 days so you can download them again, and then deleted. The privacy policy has the full detail.
Background pieces such as the sky, a floor or a wall are cut out the same way as everything else, so they keep a hole wherever an object stood in front of them. Nothing is painted in. When you need a complete background behind your objects, use Image to Layers, which rebuilds it with AI.
Yes. The PSD has one layer for each cutout you keep, named after the object and placed where it was in your picture, with the original as the bottom layer. It opens in Photoshop, Photopea, GIMP and other editors that read PSD files.
Pictures with clear objects: product shots, group photos, pets, characters, sticker sheets, posters and thumbnails. Busy scenes can return many small pieces, such as single clouds or leaves, which you can simply leave unticked.
