Video background erasing, designed for speed
Need to remove video backgrounds at scale? This fast API is made for high-throughput pipelines, keeping social clips, drafts, and batch jobs moving when turnaround matters more than pixel-perfect contours.
Usage is frame-based with optional edge refinement. Switch refinement on for cleaner subject boundaries, or off for lower processing cost. It works with people and objects without a green screen. For finish-ready delivery, choose the standard background removal API.
How to use the fast background removal API
Step 02
Process and generate
The API analyzes each frame and isolates your subject. Enable edge refinement for cleaner contours, or leave it off to reduce cost.
Step 03
Receive your video
Get the processed result with the background removed. Export VP9 with alpha or separate RGB and alpha H.264 streams for compositing.
