+# ComfyUI BEN (Background Erase Network)
+
+****
+
+
+Remove backgrounds from images with [BEN](https://huggingface.co/PramaLLC/BEN) in [ComfyUI](https://github.com/comfyanonymous/ComfyUI)
+
+## Installation
+
+```
+git clone https://github.com/DoctorDiffusion/ComfyUI-BEN.git
+```
+```
+cd ComfyUI-BEN
+```
+```
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+Go to [BEN Huggingface page](https://huggingface.co/PramaLLC/BEN/tree/main) and download BEN_Base.pth
+```
+```
+cd ComfyUI-BEN
+```
+The folder should look like this:
+└── ComfyUI/custom-nodes/ComfyUI-BEN/
+    ├── __init__.py
+    ├── background_erase_network.py
+    ├── ben.png
+    ├── BEN_Base.pth
+    ├── model.py
+    ├── readme.txt
+    └── requirements.txt
+```
+## Nodes
+
+### Background Erase Network
+
+Outputs image of subject with alpha layer, combine with Image to Mask Node to get alpha mask as well.
