I got tired of paying $10/month to remove image backgrounds – so I built it for free

Tooba

Let me guess.

You have been there.

You need to remove a white background from a product photo.
Or convert a WebP image to PNG because some random website won't accept it.
Or save a JPG as a smaller WebP for faster loading.

And every time, you end up on some tool that:

  • Asks for your email
  • Limits you to 3 free images
  • Then hits you with a "9.99 dollars per month Premium" screen

Yeah, no.

I built GreenConvert, a dead-simple, completely free tool that does two things really well.

What GreenConvert actually does

  1. Image format conversion
  • WebP to PNG
  • WebP to JPG
  • PNG to WebP
  • JPG to WebP
  • PNG to JPG
  • JPG to PNG

Just upload. Click convert. Download. No signup.

  1. Background removal (AI powered)
  • Remove white, solid, or complex backgrounds
  • Works on product photos, profile pictures, logos
  • Takes about 2 seconds per image
  • Download as transparent PNG

Real examples where I use this daily

Use case 1: Website product images
Before: Heavy WebP from Canva
After: Convert to JPG for Shopify

Use case 2: Discord emotes
Before: PNG with white box
After: Remove background to transparent PNG

Use case 3: Thumbnail for a blog post
Before: Random JPG
After: Convert to WebP for faster loading

Use case 4: Print a photo
Before: WebP (cannot print)
After: Convert to PNG or JPG

Why I built it instead of paying

I am a cheap developer. I refuse to pay subscription fees for simple image utilities.

So I:

  • Wrapped a free AI background removal model
  • Added format conversion using browser APIs
  • Hosted it on a free tier (Blogspot actually works fine for this)
  • Added zero limits, watermarks, or email gates

Try it right now

Green Convert
No account. No credit card. No "start your free trial" nonsense.

Two quick questions for you

  1. What other image format should I add? (TIFF, BMP, GIF)
  2. Would you use a bulk or batch version (convert 50 images at once)?

Drop a comment. I actually read them and build what people ask for.

P.S. Your wallet can stop bleeding now.
