Why PNG.
Not JPG.

JPG cannot store transparency. WebP can. PNG is the universal format for transparent images — every design tool, browser, presentation app handles it.

— Output

PNG-32

Stores RGB plus 8-bit alpha channel. Supports full transparency with smooth anti-aliased edges. Universal support.

— Sometimes

WEBP

Also supports alpha and produces smaller files. Inkurs offers it as a download option.

— Never

JPG / JPEG

No transparency support, period. If you save your result as JPG, you re-introduce a solid background.

— Frequently asked

Common questions.

Why PNG instead of JPG?
Only PNG and WEBP can store transparency through an alpha channel. JPG flattens everything to a solid background. If you save your transparent PNG as JPG, you re-introduce the white background you just removed.
Does the output work in Figma, Photoshop, and Canva?
Yes — and in every design tool, presentation app, and browser released in the last decade. PowerPoint, Keynote, Google Slides, Notion, Webflow, and Shopify all handle transparent PNG correctly.
What's the maximum output resolution?
Up to 4096×4096 pixels on the free tier. Pro extends this to 8K (7680×4320) for print work. WebP output is approximately 30% smaller than PNG with equivalent quality.
Is inkurs really free with no signup?
Inkurs is free for single-image use with no account, no email, no watermark, and no daily limit. Pro at $3/month adds bulk uploads and API access. The single-image tool stays free, forever.
Do you store or train on my uploaded images?
Inkurs deletes both the uploaded file and the processed output from its servers within 60 seconds of your download. We do not train AI models on user images, share data with advertisers, or retain copies. Privacy policy →
What image formats and sizes does inkurs accept?
Inkurs accepts PNG, JPG, WEBP, HEIC, and BMP files up to 20MB on the free tier. Output is a transparent PNG by default; WEBP is also available. Pro extends the file size cap and adds 8K output.
How does inkurs compare to removebg and Photoroom?
Inkurs gives full HD output free with no signup, while removebg gates HD behind a paid account ($9.99/mo) and Photoroom requires signup for most features ($12.99/mo). Inkurs Pro is $3/month flat. Detailed comparison →
