Questions

Is my image uploaded?

No. The AI model is downloaded from Swoopty to your browser and runs on your device. Your photo never leaves it.

Why is it slow?

The model is large. With a modern browser and graphics card it takes a few seconds; on older phones it can take a minute or more.

Which model is used?

ISNet general-use (Apache-2.0 licence), a high-resolution segmentation network from the DIS project. It runs on your graphics card when the browser supports WebGPU, otherwise on the CPU.
