How does AI background removal work on GIFs?

Each frame of the GIF is processed individually through BiRefNet, a neural network that separates the foreground subject from the background. The frames are then reassembled into a new GIF with transparent backgrounds.

Does it work on all GIFs?

It works best on GIFs with clear foreground subjects (people, animals, objects). Complex scenes with multiple overlapping subjects may have less precise results.
