What a trim finds that a crop cannot

01

It finds the edges itself

The tool reads the four corners to work out what the margin is made of, then walks inward row by row until it hits something different. You never specify a rectangle — the content decides where the crop lands, which is what makes it one click instead of four sliders.

02

Transparent or a flat colour

If the corners are fully transparent, transparency is what gets trimmed. If they are instead all the same colour, that colour is what gets trimmed. This is why one tool covers both "remove the transparent padding" and "remove the white border" without asking you which you meant.

03

Tolerance, and why it matters

A scanned white border is never one exact white, and a JPEG one is noisier still. Tolerance sets how far from the corner colour a pixel can drift and still count as margin. Raise it when a border survives; lower it if the trim is eating into the artwork.

04

Leaving some back

The margin slider gives real pixels back after the trim, clamped to what the image actually had. It never invents padding — if you want more than the original carried, add it afterwards with the padding tool.

05

A uniform image is left alone

If every pixel matches the corners there is no content to keep, so the image comes back untouched rather than as a one-pixel sliver. A tool that silently destroys the file is a worse answer than one that does nothing.

What people use it for

The jobs the editor was built around — and what it does differently on each one.

Colourways you can revisit

Every edit is a layer, not a bake. When the brand shifts, reopen the file and change the colour rather than rebuilding the variant from the original.

Cutouts with awkward edges

AI background removal that keeps hair, foliage and soft shadows instead of stamping a hard outline around them. The output is a transparent PNG, ready to place.

No export, edit, re-import loop

The Framer plugin runs on the canvas you are already working in, so a recolour or a cutout does not mean a round trip through a second application.

Ten options in the time one used to take

Recolour once and step through the alternatives, so a client review can look at the whole range instead of the one version there was time to make.

Brand colours matched exactly

Pick a colour straight off an existing asset and get the hex, rather than eyeballing it against a screenshot and hoping it is close enough.

Free to preview, priced per export

Previewing is unlimited and costs nothing. A credit is spent only when you download a full-resolution file, so exploring an idea is never the expensive part.
