AI Background Removal (Offline and Private)

Clear the background from any photo with a local AI background remover, no cloud, no tracking. Everything runs 100% on your hardware for privacy and speed.

Why I built ImgCompress

I was tired of the "software loop." Every time I needed something simple, I had to install another app:

• PSD files: Needed specialized software just to convert them to an image file.
• HEIC files: Needed another converter for regular photo files.
• Image to PDF: Needed another app just to share a screenshot for work, since a PDF is often better for emails and easy for others to print.
• AI Backgrounds: I realized I needed one more app for that too.

I thought to myself: "Why can't one tool just do it all?" Plus, uploading personal photos to random online converters never felt right to me.

One Toolbox for Everything

So I built a single toolbox that can take over 70 different formats and fix them all in one place. Whether you need to convert PSD or HEIC files to an image, turn a screenshot into a PDF for a work email, or shrink a massive 4K photo, this tool does it automatically.

The community has now pulled the image tens of thousands of times, which shows the pain is real.

Why Docker?

I chose Docker because it keeps your computer clean. Instead of you having to install 70 different messy libraries on your system, I packed everything into one Ready-to-go Box that you can run anywhere called imgcompress. It just works.
