Background Remover API Indonesia | MuAPI

What is a Background Remover API?

A background remover API isolates the foreground subject in an image or video and strips out everything behind it, producing a transparent or solid-color cutout without manual masking, rotoscoping, or a green-screen setup.

Muapi exposes image and video background removal through the same unified REST pattern used across the platform: one API key, one request-and-poll flow, and pay-as-you-go pricing. Use the image endpoint for still assets or the video endpoint when the subject needs to remain cleanly separated across every frame.

How to Remove a Background via API

1. Pick a model. Use the image endpoint for stills or the video endpoint for clips up to 60 seconds.
2. Host your source file. Upload via POST /api/v1/upload_file or use any publicly reachable image or video URL.
3. Submit the request. Call POST /api/v1/ai-background-remover with image_url for stills, or POST /api/v1/video-background-remover with video_url and output options for clips.
4. Poll for completion. Check GET /api/v1/predictions/{request_id}/result until status is completed, then download the transparent or solid-color cutout.
