Real results from Lightlyn Images (GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst), not retouched. The sample photo was made for this demo.

Pick what you need

Three kinds of background, one upload

Transparent PNG

A real alpha channel, not a checkerboard drawn into the picture. Drop the subject onto slides, designs, stickers or a website in any color.

White, with a soft shadow

A clean white background for store listings and catalogs. The shadow keeps the product grounded; ask for none if your marketplace wants it bare.

Any scene you describe

A kitchen counter, a beach at dusk, a holiday table. The lighting on your subject is matched to the new scene, so it doesn’t look pasted in.

How it works

Upload, check, refine

Upload your photo

Choose a background above and add a photo. The studio opens with your photo attached and the prompt written for you.

Check and send

Edit the prompt if you like, pick a size up to 4K, then send. Nothing is made, and no credits are used, until you do.

Adjust in conversation

“Make the shadow softer.” “Move the mug to the left.” Each edit builds on the last result, and every version stays in your private library.

Good to know

What to expect from the results

True to your subject

GPT Image 2.5 separates your subject and renders it at full quality while keeping its shape, colors, labels and fine details. In the examples above the LIGHTLYN print and the handle come through in all three versions. Give very small print a quick look before printing; if anything is off, say so and it is corrected from the last result.

Check transparent edges

Look at a transparent result on both a dark and a light background. If you see a light fringe, ask for “clean edges, no halo” in the next message. White areas inside the subject, like a white logo, are worth a second look too.

Sizes and printing

The largest size is 3840 pixels on the long side. At 300 PPI that prints about 32 cm (12.8 in) wide; at 150 PPI, about 65 cm. Leave room around the subject if you need a margin.

Price

Each image costs 1–4 credits depending on the resolution you choose, and failed generations are refunded. See current pricing. Only upload photos you have the right to use.

FAQ

Questions about changing backgrounds

Is it free to try?

New accounts get 30 free credits¹ and 3 more with each daily check-in. An image costs 1–4 credits depending on resolution, so you can try several backgrounds before deciding whether to buy more.

Will my product or subject stay the same?

Yes, keeping it intact is the first thing the prompt asks for: shape, colors, printed text and details carry over, as in the mug above. Give fine print a quick look before you print; if something moved, say what to fix and the next image starts from the last result.

How is this different from a free background remover?

You get the full-resolution PNG, up to 3840 pixels on the long side, with labels and text kept crisp, and you can go further in the same place: a white studio background, a new scene, or any edit by chat. It takes a sign-up and credits, and new accounts start with 30 free ones¹.

Can I download a PNG with a transparent background?

Yes. Choose “Transparent PNG” and the studio asks the model for real transparency. You download the original PNG with its alpha channel from the conversation or your library.

Can I make a product photo white for a store listing?

Choose “White, soft shadow” for a clean white background. The model’s white can land a shade off pure #FFFFFF (our sample above measures 253–254 out of 255), so if your marketplace checks for exact #FFFFFF, brighten the background before uploading. Other rules, such as how much of the frame the product fills or no shadow at all, can go in the prompt.

Can I change the background of several photos at once?

Not yet. Work on one photo at a time; you can keep using the same conversation for the next one.

Who can see my photos?

Only you. Uploads and results are kept in your private library and are not used to train models. See our Privacy Policy.
