Erase strangers. Keep the memory.

Remove tourists, photobombers, and strangers from your favorite shots. The AI reconstructs the background so your subject stands alone.

    Scrub over them. Overlap onto edges — the AI is forgiving.

For real crowded shots.

  • Handles multiple strangers in one photo
  • Preserves your subject even when strangers are close
  • Reconstructs complex textures like crowds, streets, and greenery
  • Undo any step and revert to the original photo

Person removal — common questions

  • Yes. Brush the strangers, avoid your subject, and the AI does its best to preserve edges. In tricky cases, a second smaller pass helps.
  • It handles multiple people. Very dense crowds may need several passes or a quick manual touch-up.
  • Person removal typically runs in the cloud so the AI can access larger models. See our privacy policy for retention details.
  • Not currently — Magic Retouch focuses on photo edits. Extract a frame if you need a still.
