Background Removal
Remove backgrounds from images via inference.sh CLI.
Quick Start
curl -fsSL https://cli.inference.sh | sh && infsh login
infsh app run infsh/birefnet --input '{"image_url": "https://your-photo.jpg"}'
Install note: The install script only detects your OS/architecture, downloads the matching binary from
dist.inference.sh, and verifies its SHA-256 checksum. No elevated permissions or background processes. Manual install & verification available.
How To
Use Reve for image editing including background changes:
infsh app run falai/reve --input '{
"prompt": "remove the background, make it transparent",
"image_url": "https://portrait.jpg"
}'
Or change background directly:
infsh app run falai/reve --input '{
"prompt": "change the background to a beach",
"image_url": "https://product-photo.jpg"
}'
Workflow: Generate and Edit
# 1. Generate an image
infsh app run falai/flux-dev-lora --input '{"prompt": "a cute robot mascot"}' > robot.json
# 2. Edit with Reve
infsh app run falai/reve --input '{
"prompt": "remove background, transparent",
"image_url": "<url-from-step-1>"
}'
