Cutout.Pro vs rembg

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.

rembg is a free tool for removing image backgrounds. It can run as a command-line program, Python library, HTTP server, or Docker container, with API access and batch processing. The command line handles individual images, folders, watch mode, and RGB24 streams; PNG is the listed export format. Models cover general images, portraits, clothing, anime, and object segmentation, with bria-rmbg as the default local model. Edge refinement options include color decontamination, alpha matting, and ViTMatte. Documentation covers FFmpeg RGB24 output, OpenCV, PIL, NumPy, Docker, and the HTTP API. Installation supports CPU, NVIDIA CUDA GPU, and AMD ROCm backends, and requires Python versions >=3.11 and <3.14. Local ONNX models download on first use into the rembg models directory. An optional withoutBG backend uploads images to its servers, with a documented 20 MB maximum. The tool is MIT-licensed, but model weights have separate licenses; commercial RMBG-2.0 use under the BRIA license requires a paid agreement.
