In their own words
VCam
VCam is a locally powered AI meeting companion for changing webcam backgrounds and enhancing camera video. It can remove, replace, or blur backgrounds, with more than 1,000 virtual backgrounds and options to use an uploaded image, video, or Unsplash stock photo. AI auto-framing follows the user's face, while studio lighting effects brighten the feed. Pause Loop repeats the camera feed during a break so the user can return without disturbing the meeting. Nametags show a name and job title; four designs are listed, with customization described as coming soon. VCam lists compatibility with Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Zoom, Discord, OBS Studio, and specialized software such as NCR's TellerNow, and its virtual camera can be used across multiple platforms at once. VCam says processing runs on the user's device and camera-feed data is not sent to its servers. Starter is free, but includes a watermark and up to 500MB storage. Personal costs $48 a year; Business costs $72 a year per user. Recommended systems are Windows 10 or higher and macOS Ventura 13.1 or higher.
VideoBGNinja
VideoBGNinja is a web tool for removing backgrounds from short videos of people without a green screen or account. Its AI matting separates the person frame by frame and follows that subject through the clip. You can upload MP4, MOV, WebM, MKV, AVI, M4V, MPG, MPEG, WMV, or 3GP files. Outputs include transparent WebM, transparent GIF, green-screen MP4, and alpha-matte MP4; paid passes also provide ProRes 4444 MOV with alpha. The free plan costs nothing and handles clips up to 90 seconds, 2 GB, and 1920 px on the longest side. A free e-mail pass offers four minutes, 4 GB, and 2560 px. Paid passes cost €3 as a one-time purchase for 24 hours or €5, paid once for 30 days, raising limits to four minutes, 4 GB, and 3840 px. Processing runs in the Netherlands, with uploads deleted after processing.
