Why Use AI Text Removal?
Traditional text removal methods like cropping or cloning often leave visible artifacts or reduce image quality. Our AI-powered tool uses LaMa (Large Mask Inpainting), a state-of-the-art deep learning model specifically designed for image restoration. It analyzes the surrounding pixels and intelligently fills the masked area with contextually appropriate content, producing seamless results.
Whether you need to remove captions from screenshots, clean up date stamps from old photos, erase subtitles from video frames, remove text overlays from social media images, or eliminate unwanted labels from product photos, our tool handles it all with professional-quality results — completely free and without any software installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of text can be removed from photos? ▼
Our AI can remove captions, subtitles, date stamps, text overlays, labels, annotations, and other unwanted text from photos. It works best with clearly visible text and semi-transparent overlays. Results may vary for very large text areas that cover critical image details.
Does the AI detect text automatically? ▼
Currently, you select the text area by drawing rectangles over it. Simply tap/click and drag to create a rectangle covering the text. This gives you precise control over exactly which areas to remove. You can draw multiple rectangles for scattered text. We plan to add automatic text detection in a future update.
What image formats are supported? ▼
We support JPG, JPEG, PNG, WebP, BMP, and TIFF image formats. The output will be in the same format as your input image. Maximum file size is 20 MB.
Is my image data private? ▼
Absolutely. All images are processed on our servers and automatically deleted within 1 hour. We never store, share, or use your images for any purpose. All uploads are encrypted via SSL.
How long does processing take? ▼
Processing typically takes 10-30 seconds depending on image size and the area being processed. Larger images or larger selected areas may take slightly longer as the AI needs more time to generate contextually appropriate fill content.
