Turn any photo into a chat-ready sticker

Drop a photo of your subject (person, pet, object), our AI removes the background automatically, and the tool draws a thick white outline around the cutout — the classic sticker look. The result is a transparent PNG that you can import into WhatsApp Stickers, Telegram sticker packs, or iMessage. No design skills required.

Yes — our background removal AI is trained on people, pets and product imagery. Faces look great as profile stickers; pets become reaction stickers; products (sneakers, food, toys) become e-commerce decals. The outline thickness and color is adjustable so each subject gets the right finishing touch.

Yes. White is the iconic look (matches the printed sticker aesthetic), but you can pick any color via the color picker — black for night-mode chats, neon for gaming, pastel for kids stickers, brand colors for marketing. The outline thickness ranges from 0 (no outline) to 40 pixels.

WhatsApp expects 512×512 PNG stickers; Telegram allows up to 512×512 with one dimension exactly 512. Our output is a transparent PNG at the source resolution — resize using our Resize Image tool if you need exact dimensions for a sticker pack uploader.

A neural network trained on millions of foreground/background segmentations predicts the alpha mask in a single pass on our server, then a fast separable-dilation pass on the resulting alpha channel draws the outline — also processed on our server over HTTPS and deleted automatically afterward. That server-side outline pass is quick enough to feel instant, so adjusting thickness or color re-renders in a moment without a fresh AI cutout.

Yes — the Drop Shadow toggle adds a soft offset shadow under the cutout for that die-cut printed feel. The shadow scales with outline thickness, so the result always looks balanced.

Your photo is sent to our servers for both the AI background-removal step and the outline-drawing step, processed over HTTPS, and deleted automatically within 24 hours — unless you explicitly share a result, which keeps it at a public link anyone who has it can open for up to 30 days. We never share your images with third parties or use them to train models. For maximum privacy use the EXIF viewer first to remove location metadata.

Preview a sticker before signup, then create a free account for a clean standard transparent PNG and the signed-in AI allowance. Premium lifts the daily cap and adds batch sticker packs and original-resolution output.

Upload any photo, and the AI removes the background to isolate your subject. Adjust the outline thickness and color for the classic die-cut sticker look, toggle a drop shadow if you want, then download a transparent PNG. The whole flow takes a few seconds with no design tools to learn.

The WhatsApp/Telegram option exports a 512×512 transparent WebP — the exact dimensions and format both apps expect for sticker pack uploads. Full-res PNG instead keeps your photo's original resolution as a transparent PNG, which suits iMessage stickers, printed die-cuts, or reusing the cutout at full size in other designs.

No — background removal runs once per uploaded photo and its result is cached, so adjusting the outline thickness slider, outline color, drop shadow toggle or export format only re-runs the fast server-side outline-drawing step, not the expensive AI cutout. That step is quick enough to feel instant, and every image is processed over HTTPS and deleted automatically afterward.

Set the format to WhatsApp/Telegram (512×512 WebP), pick a thickness around 8-15px so the outline reads clearly at small chat sizes, and turn on Drop shadow for a printed die-cut look — white or black outlines contrast best against most chat backgrounds.

Yes — AI background removal detects and cuts out the subject of your photo automatically, so there is nothing to trace by hand. The tool then draws a clean outline around the cutout (white by default, or any color you pick), adds an optional drop shadow for the die-cut look, and exports a 512×512 WebP for WhatsApp and Telegram or a full-resolution transparent PNG.

Yes — Pixoate supports batch and bulk processing. Switch to Batch mode, add up to 60 photos on Premium or 200 on Pro, set your options once, and every photo is processed with the same settings before you download a single ZIP. Bulk processing is a Premium feature; the output uses the same quality and settings as single mode.

Yes — with bulk processing you configure the settings a single time and they apply to every item in the batch — up to 60 photos on Premium or 200 on Pro. There is no need to repeat the setup per item, and Temporary uploaded and generated files are processed securely and deleted automatically.
