In their own words
Claid
Claid is an image and video suite for product and fashion photography, available on the web and through an API. Its tools include AI Photoshoot, AI fashion models, background removal, image upscaling, light and color correction, and image-to-video. Claid says its AI is trained for product photography and aims to retain details, logos and branding. The API handles image and video operations such as AI backgrounds, natural-language editing, upscaling and generative resizing; batch processing is supported. Images can be processed from AWS S3, Google Cloud Storage or a web folder. Claid’s Zapier integration can send edited and generated images to more than 6,000 apps. The company identifies marketplaces and ecommerce businesses as users and says its story began in 2017 while addressing low-quality product photos for ecommerce platforms. Claid says it is GDPR and CCPA compliant, encrypts data at rest and in transit, and does not use customer data for model training; SOC 2 is in progress. A free plan includes 50 credits for any operation and 50 API credits. A free trial is also listed.
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.
