A transparent picture is cut right away. For anything else, a background-removal network called IS-Net runs inside your browser on a computer; the first time downloads it once, about 88 MB, and your browser keeps it. On a phone it needs a browser with WebGPU; without one, Scrap tears the whole picture. On a computer you can click Keep or Remove to fix the result. Choose Whole picture to tear the full image instead.

No. The cut-out, the paper and the video are all made on your device. Only the model file travels, from Hugging Face to you.

Yes. Add an MP4 or MOV and the clip plays in stop-motion steps on the paper. A clip with a plain backdrop is cut around its subject on every step. Any other clip is torn as a whole sheet, because cutting a subject out of each frame would take too long in a browser. Sound isn’t included.

Yes. Choose Transparent for a ZIP of PNG frames with alpha, which After Effects imports as a sequence. MP4 can’t store transparency.

Yes. What you make with Scrap is yours, as long as you have the rights to the picture or clip you put in.
