What does invert background do?

It applies a color negative (every pixel becomes its complementary color) only to the background of your image. The subject — usually the person, animal, or main object — keeps its original colors. Creates a striking surreal effect.

How is this different from inverting the whole image?

Inverting the whole image flips every pixel including the subject. This tool uses AI to detect the subject first and applies the inversion only to the background. The result feels like the subject is in the real world while the background is in a mirror dimension.

Does it work on videos?

Yes — each video frame is processed independently. Best results when the subject doesn't change shape drastically.
