Removal.AI
What it is
Removal.AI removes image backgrounds and can create white, customized, or transparent backgrounds in 3 seconds or less. It is available on the web, macOS, Windows, and through an API. The online editor can change backgrounds, add text and effects, and manually adjust the foreground with a background eraser. Bulk Upload handles up to 100 images at a time and uses half the credits per image; the service also describes processing more than 1,000 images in a single upload. The API accepts image uploads or URLs and returns a file URL or Base64 output, with resolutions up to 25 megapixels. New API users receive 10 free preview credits per month by default. The free plan is free, limited to 0.25 megapixels and personal use. Paid options include lifetime credit packs and monthly plans. The listed starting pack, Lifetime — 3 credits, costs $1.89 a month and is billed once; credits are available for use within 3 years.
