Can I delete the text and fill in what was behind it automatically?

Yes. You do not paint over anything: every line of text is detected, separated and the background under it is filled in. You only choose which text layers to hide.

Can I remove just one line and keep the rest?

Yes. Each line or block of text is its own layer; hide only the ones you want gone.

What images does it work best on?

Designed graphics: posters, flyers, banners, thumbnails, social covers and product images. Very small, dense text can come back grouped as one block.

Remove text from an image, keep the background

Upload the picture and press Split into layers. LayerPSD finds every line of text automatically (no brushing), cuts each onto its own layer and fills in what was behind it, so you switch the text layers off and download a clean image instead of a smudged one. It takes about 35–116 seconds at $0.018 per output layer; the flyer on this page (11 layers + background) cost $0.22.

What LayerPSD does, in one table

The same engine runs every page on this site. These are the facts to compare against other tools.

Feature	LayerPSD
Text	Detected automatically, no brushing. Optional native Photoshop type layers you can double-click and retype; stroke, glow, shadow and gradient become layer styles (beta)
Background behind objects	Filled in (amodal inpainting), so moving or hiding a layer leaves no hole
Change words, keep the font	The model redraws the new words in the same lettering, including custom and hand-drawn type
Price	$0.018 per output image on Flash, $0.12 on Pro; background + 4 layers = $0.09. One free try with Google sign-in. No subscription
Privacy	The PSD is built in your browser. Images go through our gateway (gen.yingtu.ai, which keeps no images) to the LaoZhang API and the model; LayerPSD stores nothing. Do not upload confidential work

How it works

Three steps, one image

1
Upload the image
Drop a JPG, PNG or WebP (up to 50 MB), or paste it with Ctrl + V. Nothing to install.
2
Split into layers
Seedream 5.0 finds every element, cuts each onto a transparent layer and fills in the background behind it. About 35–116 seconds.
3
Hide the text, download
Click the eye on each text layer you want gone, then Download composite for a clean PNG, or export a PSD with the text kept as hidden layers.

What you get

A clean image with the text gone and the background filled in behind it
Every line of text on its own layer: remove one line, keep another
The same text layers to move, resize or restyle instead of deleting
PNG, ZIP of layers, or a layered PSD

What it is not (and what to use instead)

Watermarks or logos on images you do not own
License the image or ask the owner for a clean copy. LayerPSD is not for this.
Text printed on a product, like a label on a bottle or a mug
It belongs to that object's layer and stays. Change it with Edit text in image.
Changing the words rather than deleting them
Use Edit text in image: it redraws the new words in the same font.
Copying the text out as plain text
Use an OCR tool. LayerPSD returns layers, not a transcript.

By hand vs. automatic

Doing it by hand in Photoshop, and doing it here

You can do all of this in Photoshop yourself. This is what each step takes by hand, and what LayerPSD does instead.

Step	In Photoshop, by hand	In LayerPSD
Select each element	Object Selection Tool, then Select and Mask for hair and soft edges, for every object	All elements found in one pass
Fill what was behind it	Generative Fill or Content-Aware Fill on each hole, then clean up	Background repainted automatically
Time for a 10-element poster	Typically 30–60 minutes	About 1–2 minutes, $0.20 on Flash

Under the hood

How the split works

Layer decomposition

The image goes to Seedream 5.0 with layer decomposition on. The model detects each element (instance segmentation), returns it as its own RGBA image with a bounding box and a name, and returns a background with the covered areas repainted (amodal inpainting).

Assembly in your browser

Your browser places each layer at its box on the background and writes the PSD, ZIP or PNG locally. Nothing is assembled on a server.

Split the image into layers first. The text is cut onto its own layers and the area behind it is repainted, so hiding those layers leaves a clean background instead of a blurred patch.
