  3. Pick manifest.json from the unzipped folder.

  2. Choose the downloaded zip and press Install Now, then Activate.
  3. Open Media, pick a photo and press Remove background (rmvbg).

  2. Unzip the download and serve the folder locally (for example with npx @adobe/ccweb-add-on-cli start).

Questions

Are the rmvbg plugins free?

Yes. All four plugins are free, with no account, no API key and no watermark.

Are my images uploaded?

No. In Figma, VS Code and Adobe Express the background is removed on your own computer. The WordPress plugin opens the rmvbg pop-up, which also works on your device, and saves the finished image to your own Media Library.

Why is the first run slow?

The first time, the plugin downloads the background-removal engine (about 90 MB). After that it is cached and every photo takes a few seconds.

Can I see the source code?

Yes. The plugins are plain JavaScript and the download is the full source. Figma, VS Code and Adobe Express plugins are AGPL-3.0, like the IMG.LY engine they use; the WordPress plugin is GPL-2.0-or-later.
