Understanding the Trimap Technology and Tools

Simply paint a blue line around the edges of what you’d like to compute. The best part is, you don’t have to be perfect — just keep a little bit of the subject and the immediate area you’d like to mask inside of it. Our technology will do the heavy lifting.

Select the red fill button to fill the area you’d like to remove and fill any areas to keep with green. Select either AI or Contrast mode to generate your mask! AI is the ideal mode for more complex masking, like trees, hair, fur, or any image containing a lot of details. This mode will be slightly slower. The Contrast mode is a faster, rougher mode, but may perform better in images with little contrast separation between foreground and background.

With the new “Auto” button, you can let Mask AI auto-detect your subject and create a trimap for you as a quick starting point!  The Auto button is designed to save you even less input time and works great with so many visual options (people, cars, animals, etc.), but it might not be the right solution for every subject, so be sure to check over it before hitting compute!
