In their own words
Backdrop
Backdrop is a web tool that removes backgrounds from product photos for marketplace listings. It is aimed at online sellers, including apparel and other product catalogs, and lists Amazon FBA, eBay, Shopify, WooCommerce, and Poshmark as seller destinations. JPG, PNG, and WEBP files can be uploaded in batches of up to 500 images. The site says processing takes about two seconds per image. Finished images can be downloaded together as a ZIP while retaining original filenames. The free plan provides 25 images per month, white and transparent backgrounds, and ZIP downloads without requiring a credit card. Paid plans add custom-color backgrounds and 30-day job history. Starter costs $19 a month for 1,000 images; Pro costs $39 a month for 5,000 with priority processing; Max costs $79 a month for 50,000 with priority processing and dedicated support.
Cutout.Pro
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. Cutout.Pro was founded in 2018 and is based in Kowloon, Hong Kong.
