Cutaway removes image backgrounds with AI running 100% on your own machine. remove.bg charges $9/month for 40 credits — $108 a year — caps free downloads at 0.25 megapixels, and uploads every photo to their cloud. Cutaway is $24 once: unlimited images, always full resolution, and your photos never touch a server. It pays for itself in month 3.

Perfect for e-commerce sellers cutting out product shots, creators making thumbnails, and anyone tired of credit math.

• Drag & drop single images or whole batches (JPG / PNG / WebP)

• Before/after preview with checkerboard view of the transparent result

• Output options: transparent PNG, white, black, or any custom background color

• Batch export to any folder with a progress bar

• Full resolution always — your 6000x4000 photo stays 6000x4000

• Memory-safe queue — inference runs in an isolated worker so the UI never freezes

• 100% private — the only network call is a one-time ~80 MB model download, then fully offline
