In their own words
BGRemove.video
BGRemove.video is a free web service that removes video backgrounds and exports transparent clips with an alpha channel. It accepts MP4, MOV, WebM, M4V, and GIF uploads up to 60 seconds and 2 GB. Its AI follows subjects across frames to reduce flicker and keep edges stable during movement. Transparent output is WebM using VP9 alpha, with the source dimensions preserved. You can place a solid color, blur, image, or video behind a processed clip and export an MP4 without consuming another removal allowance. The free plan costs nothing and allows three successful removals per 24-hour window, with no watermark. Files are processed in the EU and retained for 24 hours, or deleted sooner when requested. Google is the only sign-in option. The maker says uploads are not used to train its models or its provider’s models. Manual edge refinement is unavailable, and glass, smoke, fine mesh, depth-swapping overlaps, and severely underexposed footage are difficult cases.
