No. All AI processing runs locally in your browser using WebAssembly technology. Your images never leave your device, ensuring complete privacy and data security.
BG-Zero offers three AI engines: imgly (IS-Net model, ~40MB, compatible with all browsers), Transformers.js (RMBG-1.4, ~176MB, best quality, requires WebGPU), and rembg-web (7+ models from 4.7MB, MIT licensed).
