AI image editing without giving up your photos
Most AI image sites work the same way: you upload your photo, their server runs the model, and you download the result — which means your image lives on someone else’s computer. NanoImage’s AI tools flip that model. The AI weights are downloaded to your browser once and cached; after that, every inference runs locally on your device with WebGPU (Chrome, Edge) or a WASM fallback (Firefox, Safari). Your image stays in your browser’s memory and is never uploaded — you can verify it yourself in your browser’s DevTools Network tab.
Use the AI Background Remover to cut the subject out of a photo and download a transparent PNG — great for product shots, avatars, and design work. The first run downloads the RMBG-1.4 model (~168 MB); after that it’s cached and fast.
Use the Object Remover to paint over people, objects, or watermarks and let smart edge-fill reconstruct the background. For big objects, several small passes usually beat one large one.
Use Photo Restore to enhance old or faded photos and add color to black-and-white pictures — a natural fit for family archives you’d rather not upload anywhere.
Use Smart Crop & Blur to auto-crop to the most interesting region for a chosen aspect ratio, or to add a depth-of-field blur behind a person, powered by on-device segmentation.
These AI tools follow the same rules as every other NanoImage tool: free, no account, no watermark, and no upload. The only thing fetched from our CDN is the model weights themselves. If your device can’t run a model, the tool tells you up front instead of quietly falling back to a server.
