Cutout.Pro vs EZ-CorridorKey

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.

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.

EZ-CorridorKey is a free desktop GUI for CorridorKey, an AI chroma keyer that separates foreground from background. It handles green and blue screens and detects which color is present. GVM and BiRefNet generate alpha automatically, while MatAnyone2 and VideoMaMa provide paint-and-track control. A dual viewer offers source, alpha, or composite views, an A/B wipe, pan and zoom, channel switching, and live despill, refine, and despeckle controls. The queue processes clips in sequence, with progress, sound cues, recent projects, and session saving. Exports include EXR and PNG sequences, ProRes 4444, and VP9 with alpha while preserving bit depth. Footage and project files stay on local disk, without accounts, telemetry, or cloud processing; the app does request an update check from GitHub on launch. It runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux, with Docker instructions for Linux servers or remote GPUs. Apple Silicon Macs from M1 onward are supported, though alpha generators run slower on Mac. The license is CC BY-NC-SA 4.0; donations are optional.
