Does it work on people in the street?
Yes. It removes passers-by and people standing in front of a property on exterior shots, reconstructing the pavement, road or frontage behind them.
Why remove people from listing photos?
People date a photo, distract from the property and raise privacy concerns. Removing them keeps the image clean, timeless and focused on the space, and avoids showing occupants without consent.
Remove people, pets and reflections
People in property photos are a common problem: an occupant caught walking through a room, a passer-by on the pavement, a pet on the sofa, or — most often — the photographer reflected in a window or mirror. Removing people from a property photo means digitally deleting them and rebuilding the room, street or glass behind them.
With PhotoClear you upload the photo, brush over the person, pet or reflection, and the AI clears it in seconds. It handles tricky reflective surfaces — windows, mirrors, splashbacks, glossy appliances — that catch the photographer, and rebuilds them so the surface looks naturally clean.
As well as keeping the image tidy and timeless, removing people helps with privacy: occupants, children and pets should not appear in marketing without consent. PhotoClear lets you shoot quickly and clean the people out afterwards.

Where people removal helps most
People removal is most useful in these common situations:
- Occupants or vendors caught walking through a room
- Passers-by and pedestrians on exterior street shots
- The photographer reflected in windows and mirrors
- Pets on furniture, floors or in the garden
- Children in shot who should not appear in marketing
Reflections and shiny surfaces
Reflections are some of the hardest edits to do by hand, because the surface behind is partly visible through the reflection. PhotoClear is trained on real interiors, so it removes the reflected photographer or camera and rebuilds the window, mirror or splashback convincingly — a task that would take a skilled retoucher several minutes per image.
