What is an SVG Background Remover?
An SVG background remover is a tool that helps you delete or isolate background shapes inside SVG files. Unlike images (PNG or JPG), SVGs are made of code, so backgrounds are often just <rect> elements or filled shapes. This tool automatically detects and removes them.
This is especially useful when exporting SVGs from design tools like Figma or Illustrator where background layers are included by default.
