High-quality video background removal API with 4K support
Most background removal APIs focus on images. VEED's background remover API is built specifically for video—processing footage up to 4K resolution with better output quality compared to alternatives. The AI supports both Person mode and Object mode, giving you flexibility across use cases from talking head content to video ads.
This AI background remover API runs on fal.ai and returns footage in formats optimized for professional compositing workflows, including VP9 with alpha channel or separate RGB and alpha files. Drop results directly into your editing pipeline without format conversion headaches. Get the background remover API now, perfect for developers who need reliable, high-quality background removal at scale.
How to use the background removal API:
Step 1
Provide video input
Upload your source video. The API accepts standard video formats at resolutions up to 4K. Select Person mode for human subjects or Object mode for products and non-human subjects.

Submit your API request. The background remover API analyzes your video and removes the background while preserving your subject with clean edges. Processing prioritizes quality for professional output.

Up to 4K video processing for professional results
Most remove background APIs cap output at 720p or deliver inconsistent results with high-resolution footage. VEED's AI remove background API handles videos up to 4K resolution, preserving detail and clarity for professional use cases. Whether you're building tools for content creators, e-commerce platforms, or video production workflows, your users get high-quality output without resolution compromises.
Person and object modes for versatile background removal
Many AI background removers only handle people reliably. This API includes dedicated modes for both human subjects and objects. Use Person mode for talking-head videos, interviews, and creator content. Use Object mode for product demos, item showcases, and other non-human subjects. One API covers use cases from UGC platforms to e-commerce automation.
Video-first background removal built for production workflows
Background removal APIs have traditionally focused on images. VEED's API is purpose-built for video, with output formats designed for professional workflows. Export as VP9 with alpha channel for transparent video, or as separate H.264 RGB and alpha files for flexibility in compositing software and editing workflows.
