What it does well
One-click cut-outs
The subject is separated from the background automatically: people, products, pets and objects, with no brushing by hand.
Transparent PNG
The result is a transparent PNG you can drop onto any color, scene or design template.
Cheap enough for whole catalogs
From 2 credits per image, so a full product catalog costs very little.
Clean downloads
Full-resolution files, without a watermark on paid plans, ready for marketplaces, slides or social posts.
Settings and prices
Each image has a fixed price; the button always shows the exact total before you generate.
| Setting | Price | Example | Unlimited plan |
|---|---|---|---|
| PNG | 2 credits / image | 4 images = 8 credits | Uses credits |
Tips for the best result
Start from a clean source
The cleaner the input, the better the result. Use a sharp, evenly lit photo rather than a screenshot that has been compressed several times.
Test small, then go big
Run the lower setting first to check the look, then render the final file at the top setting. It saves credits and waiting time.
Watch the edges
Hair, glass and transparent objects are the hardest parts. The more the subject stands out from the background, the cleaner the edges come out.
Keep the original file
Save the result as a PNG so it is not compressed again. When you need a transparent background or another upscale later, starting from that file gives the cleanest output.
Set one standard for a batch
For a set of product shots or profile photos, settle the setting on one image first, then process the rest the same way so the whole set looks consistent.
