Remove.bg

Overview

Remove.bg is an API that uses artificial intelligence to automatically remove backgrounds from images. With the integration in SquadOS, your agents can process product photos, portraits, and any image, delivering results with a transparent or replaced background in seconds.

• Official website: https://www.remove.bg/
• Composio documentation: docs.composio.dev/toolkits/remove_bg

Authentication

This tool uses an API key (API_KEY) to connect.

You will need the following fields:

Field	Required	Description
api_key	Yes	API key from your Remove.bg account, used to authenticate all requests.

How to get credentials

1. Go to www.remove.bg/users/sign_up and create a free account.

4. Under API Keys, click Get API Key.
5. Copy the generated key — this is the value to use in the api_key field when connecting in SquadOS.
