Pixelcut
AI photo editor and image generator for background removal, upscaling, generative fill and product visuals, with an API.
What is Pixelcut?
Pixelcut is an AI photo editing app and web tool for creators, brands and small businesses. It handles everyday jobs such as background removal, a magic eraser, upscaling, expanding an image and generative fill, and it can generate AI backgrounds for product photos. Paid plans include credits that unlock advanced image and video models from partners, listed on the pricing page with approximate counts of how many images or videos each credit allowance covers. Teams get shared access, and batch exports are included for bulk work. Pixelcut works on iOS, Android and the web, and a purchase on one platform gives access on the others when you log in to the same account. Developers can also use the Pixelcut API for background removal, upscaling and inpainting through a credit subscription. The Free plan has limits, Pro costs $8 per month billed yearly, and Business costs $24 per month billed yearly.
