Transparent backgrounds. Your car, on your design.

Ask for background=transparent and the car arrives cut out, with or without its shadow, ready for any background you put behind it. Or let the studio come back in a colour you name.

One image, any background

The same cut-out on four backgrounds. Only the car comes from the API; the background is yours, from a page colour to your brand colour.

Straight into your banner

Homepage banners, newsletters, social posts, print ads: the car drops into your layout without anyone cutting it out by hand.

With or without its shadow

Add shadow=true and the cut-out keeps a soft ground shadow that falls on your background. Leave it out for the bare car.

Or the studio in your colour

Pass a six-digit hex code as background and the whole studio comes back in that colour, shadow included. No cutting, no compositing.

Questions about transparent backgrounds

Which formats keep the transparency?

PNG, WebP and AVIF. JPEG has no transparency, so ask for one of the three.

Does the cut-out keep its shadow?

If you ask for shadow=true, yes: the shadow is part of the image and falls on whatever is behind it. Without it, you get the bare car.

Can I get a coloured background instead?

Yes. Pass a six-digit hex code as background and the studio comes back in that colour, shadow included.

Does every view have a transparent version?

Every exterior view does. Lifestyle scenes keep their scene; a background parameter is ignored there and the response says so.

Do I need the add-on?

Cut-outs work on every key with transparency=true. The background parameter with a hex colour is part of the API v2 add-on.
