Artguru Background Remover vs Cutout.Pro

Artguru Background Remover removes the background from an image and produces a transparent PNG. It identifies the main subject and accepts JPG, PNG, and WEBP uploads. After removal, users can choose a solid color or upload a custom image as the replacement background. The product says its machine-learning tool handles detailed edges such as hair wisps and animal fur. The uploader allows up to 200 images, while batch background removal is listed as a Pro feature. The service is available on Android, iOS, and the web, with stated uses including e-commerce product photos, social media graphics, and presentation portraits. Background removal costs one credit per image, listed as $0.01 per image. Credits expire at the end of the subscription cycle and do not roll over. The privacy policy says uploaded inputs may be used to improve AI models, and that training use cannot be reversed once incorporated.

Cutout.Pro removes image backgrounds and can replace them with other backgrounds. It accepts JPG, PNG, WEBP and BMP files up to 15 MB, with output up to 4096 × 4096 pixels in PNG or JPG. An Erase & Restore brush lets users refine missed background areas or clipped foreground details. Batch processing is available; the Windows and Mac desktop app can process folders. Other access includes Android, iOS, Linux, web and API. Each upload receives a low-resolution preview without a watermark, account or credits, while an HD image download uses one credit. New accounts receive five credits without a credit card. The free plan is available, and the listed subscription with 80 credits per month costs $5 a month. Other subscription and pay-as-you-go credit packages are listed. Main-platform credit purchases have a 14-day refund guarantee, but Shopify App credit purchases are non-refundable.
