Backgrounds

VCam.ai lets you remove, blur or completely replace your camera's background without the need for a green screen.


Original



Original is the default selection and simply shows your webcam feed as-is.

No background removal or replacement.


Remove



Remove instantly completely removes your background similar to having a chroma-keyed green screen.
For the full alpha transparency effect, the application you're using VCam with will need to support the ARGB32 colorspace. (For example, streaming apps like XSplit Broadcaster and OBS Studio.)

While the background might appear as black in the preview, it will be transparent in supported apps.
Video conferencing apps such as Google Meet, Zoom and Microsoft Teams don't support this and will just make your background black.


Blur



Click Blur to apply a blur effect . This feature completely removes your background similar to having a chroma-keyed green screen.

Messy room or in a public space? Blur removes the distractions and keeps the focus on you.

You replace your background with an Image file, Video file, or even a free stock photo from Unsplash. Just click on any of the available ones on the sidebar to instantly replace your background.
