# TextBehind
> Place text BEHIND any photo subject using AI — create viral VLOG thumbnails, magazine covers and social content in seconds.

## What is TextBehind?

TextBehind is a free, browser-based AI design tool that creates a stunning "text behind subject" layered effect on photos. Users upload an image, the on-device AI (RMBG-1.4 by BriaAI) extracts the foreground subject, and the tool composes the subject in front of large bold text — producing viral-ready thumbnails and covers instantly.

**Key differentiator:** Everything runs locally in the browser using WebAssembly. No image ever leaves the user's device. 100% private.
