Why Clean Backgrounds Matter
Discover the measurable impact that background quality has on viewer attention, trust, and conversion rates.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I remove the background from images with multiple subjects?
+
Yes. Magic Eraser detects all foreground subjects automatically. You can also manually select which subjects to keep and which to treat as part of the background.
What resolution should my source image be?
+
Higher resolution images produce better cutouts because the AI has more pixel detail at edges. We recommend at least 1500px on the longest side for professional use.
Is there a limit to the number of images I can process?
+
Free accounts can process up to 10 images per day. Paid plans offer unlimited background removal with priority processing speeds.
