This tool can handle a large volume of images quickly and supports batch processing of up to 1,000 images in a single upload. Beyond simple background removal, Removal.AI also offers an integrated online photo editor for further customization, allowing users to replace backgrounds, add text and effects, and create designs.

PhotoScissors

PhotoScissors provides an intuitive solution for removing backgrounds from digital images. Leveraging deep neural networks trained on millions of examples, the tool automatically detects and isolates foreground objects, eliminating the need for manual selection or technical expertise. Users can simply upload an image, and the AI algorithm processes it to create a clean cutout.

Beyond fully automatic removal, PhotoScissors offers tools for refining results. It can effectively handle complex edges, such as hair, and manage transparent objects. Users can also manually mark areas to keep or remove, including a feature to erase backgrounds based on color grouping. The platform allows replacing the removed background with transparency, a solid color, or another background image, making it suitable for various applications like preparing product photos for e-commerce sites (like eBay or Amazon), creating professional portraits, or designing collages.

FAQs

What type of images are supported by Removal.AI?

You can upload any .jpg or .png type of image with up to 12 MB and the images must have a clear subject to get the best background removal output. If the image resolution is larger than 36 MP (for example, 6000x6000px), the image is resized to this maximum resolution.

What are credits?

A credit enables you to download high-resolution cutouts processed by Removal.AI. Therefore, 1 high-quality image download will require you 1 credit. You can use Removal.AI credits via our online tool, our API, by using our background remover app Mac/Windows, or for any future Removal.AI tools.

Should I choose monthly subscriptions or lifetime plans?

Monthly package: our most popular and cheapest background remover plan. This is most suitable for businesses with a stable volume of images processed monthly. Lifetime: our lifetime package allows you to use your Removal.AI credits within three (3) years. If you only need to use our background remover tool from time to time, this is the best option for you. Unlimited: this is best for start-ups that find it hard to currently estimate the number of images they need to get processed on a monthly basis.
