Common use cases
Why it’s different
100% Private
Every model runs in your browser. Your files never leave your device — nothing is uploaded to a server.
True Alpha Channel
Exports preserve a real straight-alpha transparency channel (PNG / WebP / AVIF), not a baked-on background.
Free Forever
No account, no watermark, no credits. Open the tool and use it.
Works Offline
After the model downloads once it is cached, so the tool keeps working with no connection.
FAQ
How does it know the 3D shape?
It estimates a depth map of the scene, then relights using that geometry so highlights and shadows fall naturally.
Does it download a model?
Yes, a small depth model downloads once and is cached for offline use.
Is it free to use?
Yes — AI Relight is completely free. No account, no watermark, no credits, and no usage limits.
Do my files or prompts ever leave my device?
No. Everything runs locally in your browser via WebAssembly/WebGPU — there is no server that receives your files, prompts, or results.
Which browser and hardware do I need?
A modern browser. Chrome and Edge get WebGPU acceleration for the fastest results; Firefox and Safari run via WebAssembly. The model (~60 MB) downloads once, then is cached for offline use.
Can I use the results commercially?
Yes. You own everything you create — NSS makes no claim to the images, videos, or text you process or export.
Does it work on mobile?
Lightweight tools run on phones; heavier models prefer a desktop with a GPU. The tool picks the best path for your device and falls back gracefully where needed.
Where can I see a step-by-step guide?
Yes — there is a full walkthrough at /how-it-works/ai-relight.
