Why use Backlyra to remove backgrounds
Backlyra is a free image background remover for Windows that combines automatic AI cutouts with the privacy of local processing. Use it for everyday photos or detailed board game artwork without an account.
Automatic AI background removal
Remove an image background automatically without tracing edges or building a manual mask. The AI isolates the main subject while preserving fine details.
100% offline and private
After the one-time AI setup, every photo is processed locally on your Windows PC. No image is uploaded to a background removal server.
Transparent PNG or white background
Make a transparent PNG for designs, listings, and overlays, or export your subject on a clean white background for print and product images.
Batch background remover
Add multiple JPG, JPEG, PNG, WebP, or BMP files and remove their backgrounds in one batch while tracking each image in the queue.
Built for board game creators
Cut out artwork for tokens, markers, standees, meeples, and counters while keeping unpublished game art on your own computer.
Free, no account, no watermark
Download once and use it forever. No subscription, no sign-up, and no watermark on your results.

The same offline workflow handles common photo editing tasks and specialist assets for tabletop game design.

Portraits and profile pictures
Create a clean cutout from a portrait, headshot, or profile photo without uploading a personal image to an online editor.

Turn logos and illustrations into transparent PNG assets that are ready to place in presentations, social graphics, print layouts, or prototypes.
Board game tokens and markers
Prepare character art and icons for tokens, markers, standees, counters, and print sheets while protecting work-in-progress game designs.
