Round a photo's corners with an adjustable radius — the cut area stays transparent.

Rounded corners are a common styling touch for cards, thumbnails, and app icons, but adding them properly means the corners need to be genuinely transparent rather than filled with a solid background color that only looks right on one particular page background. This tool clips the corners of your photo by a radius you control — in exact pixels, or as a percentage of the image's shorter side — and the live preview shows the result over a checkerboard pattern so you can see exactly what's transparent before downloading. The output is always a PNG, since that's the only common format that can actually represent the cut-away corners rather than filling them in. Everything runs locally in your browser via Canvas; your photo is never uploaded to a server.

Frequently asked questions
What happens outside the rounded corners — is it filled with white?
No — the area outside the rounded shape is left fully transparent, not filled with white or black. That's why the download is always a PNG rather than a JPEG, since JPEG can't represent transparency.
What's the difference between px and % for the radius?
Pixels give you an exact, fixed corner radius regardless of image size. Percent scales the radius relative to the image's shorter side, which is useful if you want the same "roundedness" across images of different dimensions.
Can I round the corners all the way into a pill or circle shape?
Yes — push the radius up to half the image's shorter side (50% in percent mode) and the shape becomes a full pill (for a rectangle) or a circle (for a square image).
