What types of images work best?

Images with a clear subject and decent contrast between subject and background produce the best results. The AI handles complex edges like hair and clothing well, but very low-contrast images may need some cleanup.

Can I replace the background with my own image?

Currently, background replacement is AI-generated from text descriptions. For custom image backgrounds, you can use the transparent cutout and composite it in the thumbnail editor.

How many credits does it cost?

Background removal costs 1 credit. If you also replace the background, that is an additional credit (2 total).
