Is this really a free remove.bg alternative?

Yes. The free tier costs nothing and spends no credits — there is no trial that runs out. Free results come back as full-resolution transparent PNGs and can be used commercially. Credits only come into it if you want Pro's extra precision on a difficult photo. Upgrade to a membership — any subscription or credit pack — and Free becomes unlimited.

Do I get the full-resolution file for free, or just a preview?

The full-resolution file. Free and Pro both return the PNG at exactly the pixel dimensions you uploaded — nothing is downscaled to a preview and there is no separate paid download for the large version. If you were used to getting a small preview for free and paying per image for the full size, that is the main thing that changes when you switch.

What do I need to do to switch?

Nothing to migrate. Sign in with Google or an email code, drop your images on this page and download the results. You can drop images in and look around before you sign in.

What about the remove.bg credits I still have?

remove.bg has said that unused credits expire on 1 December 2026, when its website closes, and they cannot be transferred anywhere. If you have some left, use them there before that date. Here the free tier needs no credits at all — and if you do buy credits later, they are one balance for every tool and model on Molyin, from background removal to image, video and music generation, rather than credits tied to a single tool.

Is the cutout quality as good?

Judge it on the before/after results on this page — every one came straight out of the tool with no touch-ups. Loose hair, transparent glass, soft shadows and thin ink strokes are the cases that separate a clean cutout from a rough one, and those are the cases shown. When a photo is unusually hard, fine fur against a busy background or a subject that barely contrasts with the backdrop, Pro cuts with more precision. Run it on Free first — finding out costs nothing.

Can I process several images at once?

Yes — up to 10 images per batch. Each image is processed on its own and appears as its own result, so one difficult file never holds up the rest. Finished results can be downloaded together as a zip.

What is the difference between Free and Pro?

The difference shows up on hard edges. Free costs nothing and does well on clean, well-lit subjects, which is most photos. Pro cuts with more precision — fine hair, fur and cluttered backgrounds hold together far more reliably — and costs 2 credits per image. Both return a full-resolution PNG with alpha at the size you uploaded. If you are unsure, run the tricky image on Free first — finding out costs nothing.

Can I use the results commercially?

Yes. Cutouts you make here are yours to use for product listings, ads, print or anything else, on every tier including Free. The one thing we cannot grant is rights to the original photo — if you did not take it or license it, removing the background does not change that.

Are my images private, and how long are they kept?

Uploads and results live in your workspace and no other user can browse them. There is one exception, and it applies only to the free tier: we may pick a free-tier result and show it publicly — in our showcase, as an example on this page, or in marketing material — as set out in our terms. Anything you run on Pro is never published. Either way, results stay downloadable for 7 days on the free plan and up to 365 days on the highest subscription tier, after which they are deleted from storage.

What happens if an image fails?

The credits for that image are returned to your balance automatically and the result card says so. You can retry the same file from the result card without uploading it again.

Where can the cutout go from here?

Anywhere on the site. Open it in the AI Image Generator as a reference and describe a new background or a whole new scene around the subject; use it as the first frame of a short clip in AI Video; run it through the Image Upscaler if the original was small. Everything shares one account and one balance, so there is no second product to sign up for.

Switching from remove.bg? Here is what changes

remove.bg is closing its website on 1 December 2026 and moving into Canva, and unused credits expire the same day. If you came here looking for the same job done the same way, this is it: drop in a photo, get a PNG with a real alpha channel back at the original resolution. There is no preview-sized download and no credit to spend on the full-size file — the full size is what Free gives you.

The free tier is a working tool, not a teaser. It costs nothing and spends no credits, and what comes back is a full-resolution cutout you can use commercially — product photos for a listing, a portrait for a profile, a sticker, a logo. Upgrade to a membership, any subscription or credit pack, and it becomes unlimited. When a photo is genuinely hard, fine hair against a busy background or fur that blends into the backdrop, Pro cuts with more precision. It is the same engine as our Background Remover; this page is the front door for people arriving from remove.bg, and the switch is written up step by step if you want the long version.

What you could not do on remove.bg starts here. A cutout is rarely the last step: open it in the AI Image Generator as a reference and describe a new scene around the subject, use it as the opening frame of a short clip in AI Video, or run it through the image upscaler when the original was small. One account, one balance, one workspace — there is no second product to move into. If alpha channel or matting are unfamiliar words, the glossary explains each one.

How to switch from remove.bg

Three steps, nothing to migrate

Drop your images in

Drag photos in, paste a screenshot from the clipboard or click anywhere on the drop area to pick files — a whole batch at once, exactly as you did before.

Pick Free or Pro

Free costs nothing and handles clean, well-lit subjects, which is most photos. Pro cuts with more precision on fine hair, fur and busy backgrounds.

Download the full-size PNG

Every result comes as a before/after slider over a checkerboard, so you can check the edges. The file you download is the full resolution — on Free too — and it can go straight on to AI Image or AI Video without leaving the site.
