Unscreen
Remove video backgrounds with AI in the browser, no green screen needed.
About
Unscreen removes backgrounds from video automatically: upload a clip and its AI separates the subject from the scene frame by frame, no green screen and no manual masking. From there you can drop in a color, image or video, or export a transparent-background clip for compositing in an editor.
The free tier runs in the browser with no account required, which made it a staple for quick social clips, talking-head videos and GIFs. Studio and Premium tiers add desktop apps, live webcam tools, sound, 4K exports and API access. Free outputs carry watermarks and resolution limits, and fine edge detail still lags dedicated desktop rotoscoping for demanding shots.
