Unscreen closed on June 29, 2026 — the site now redirects to Canva, where video background removal sits behind a paid Canva Pro plan. If you're looking for a replacement that stays free: VideoBGNinja removes the background from a video of a person on our own GPU, with no account, no watermark and no subscription.

What happened to Unscreen

Unscreen was acquired by Canva, and on June 29, 2026 the standalone site shut its doors. Its technology lives on inside Canva’s video editor — but only for Canva Pro subscribers. The free, no-login unscreen.com workflow that people bookmarked is gone.

That workflow is exactly what this tool keeps alive: open the page, drop a clip in, download the result. No account, no watermark, no subscription — ads keep the GPU running.

How VideoBGNinja compares

Most background removers want a subscription, stamp a watermark on the export, or only work if you already own a green screen. VideoBGNinja runs Robust Video Matting on our own GPU, so there's no cloud bill per clip and nothing to pay: it separates a person from any background frame by frame, free, with no account and no watermark.

Every job hands you three files so you're never stuck: a transparent WebM with a real VP9 alpha channel (drops onto any background in browsers, OBS and modern editors), a green-screen MP4 you can chroma-key in any app, and a black-and-white alpha matte MP4 for precise compositing. Your original audio stays in the WebM and the MP4.

How to switch

The tool is tuned for short clips: up to 2 GB and 90 seconds per upload, processed at up to 1920px. Longer material? Trim it into parts first — that keeps processing fast and free for everyone. It's trained on people, so a human subject is what it does best.

  1. Open VideoBGNinja — no sign-up.
  2. Upload your clip (MP4, MOV or WebM, up to 2 GB / 90 seconds).
  3. The AI cuts the person out frame by frame on our GPU.
  4. Download the transparent WebM, green-screen MP4 or alpha matte.

Common questions

Is Unscreen really gone?

Yes. Unscreen announced its shutdown for June 29, 2026 and the site now points to Canva. The technology is part of Canva’s paid Pro plan.

Is VideoBGNinja really free?

Yes — full quality, no watermark, no account. Ads keep the GPU running, and a small optional pass adds extras like longer clips.

Does it work like Unscreen did?

The flow is the same: upload a short clip, the AI removes the background, you download the result. You get three files back — transparent WebM, green-screen MP4 and alpha matte.

What are the limits?

Up to 2 GB and 90 seconds per clip, processed at up to 1920px, tuned for footage of people. Your upload is deleted right after processing.
