SAM3 Image/Video Segmentation

Remove backgrounds from images and videos with AI

Build a production background removal service powered by SAM3. An agent manages the pipeline — detecting subjects, generating precise masks, handling edge cases like hair and transparency, and producing clean cutouts with optional background replacement.

Implementation

  1. 1

    Build subject detection

    Create an agent that identifies the primary subject in an image — people, products, animals, etc. — and generates appropriate SAM3 prompts.

  2. 2

    Generate high-quality masks

    Use SAM3 for initial segmentation, then refine with alpha matting for fine details like hair, fur, and translucent objects.

  3. 3

    Add background replacement

    Implement background replacement tools — solid colors, custom images, or AI-generated backgrounds that match the subject's lighting and perspective.

  4. 4

    Handle edge cases

    Configure special handling for challenging subjects: glass, shadows, reflections, and subjects with complex boundaries.

  5. 5

    Deploy as API

    Ship as a high-throughput API. Support batch processing for e-commerce catalogs and real-time processing for user-facing applications.

What You Get

  • Clean background removal including fine details like hair
  • Optional AI-powered background replacement
  • Handles challenging subjects: glass, shadows, translucency
