In their own words
Pixelcut
Pixelcut is an AI photo and video editor focused on product photography, with tools for background removal, upscaling, image expansion, retouching, product shots, ads, and video. Its web background remover accepts JPG, PNG, and HEIC images up to 50 MB and 6000 × 6000 pixels, and offers free HD downloads without a watermark or sign-up. The editor can upscale images up to 16×, use generative fill for retouching, generate shadows, and batch edit hundreds of files. The background-removal page lists bulk processing for up to 10,000 images in one batch, with ZIP export. The API costs 5 credits per image, shown as $0.05 per image, and accepts PNG or JPEG inputs; outputs include transparent PNG, alpha masks, and ZIP files. Pixelcut is available on Android, iOS, and web, with API access. Its free plan includes limited background removal and upscaling, with exports without a watermark. Pixelcut describes its intended users as sellers, creators, and brands working on product photos, e-commerce catalogs, ads, and social content.
Pixian.AI
Pixian.AI is a web service and API that removes image backgrounds automatically. Its servers analyze uploaded images with GPUs and multi-core CPUs, then return transparent PNG files or opaque JPEG and PNG files. Inputs can be JPEG, PNG, BMP, GIF, or WebP. Batch processing and API access are available, with example clients for cURL, Java,.NET, Node.js, PHP, Python, and Ruby. The site describes support for many image types, including people, objects, artwork, logos, and scans. Free website images are limited to 250,000 pixels; paid images can reach 25 megapixels, with a 30-megabyte file limit. The Free plan costs nothing and is website-only with low-priority processing. A PAYGO 250-credit plan costs $5 a month for website and API use. API testing is free, while production results require credits.
