Background removal for images, video and GIFs that never leaves your computer
Emerged finds new products worth a look, daily — what’s new today
Background removal that takes a text prompt means you can keep the right subject in a crowded photo without hand-masking every one.
MultiMatte is a promptable background-removal model from Feyn Labs. You name the object you want — "the dog", "the left glass" — and it keeps that and cuts everything else. It is a low-rank fine-tune of Meta's SAM 3, touching 2.27 percent of the base parameters, and it outputs alpha mattes rather than binary masks, so pixels carry continuous opacity and edges like hair or smoke come out usable instead of jagged. Weights are published and it installs as a Python library with pip install nobg, with a hosted demo on the Feyn site for trying it before wiring it in.
