Frequently Asked Questions

We use volume-based pricing where the unit price decreases as you buy more credits upfront. If you buy 1,000 credits, you pay $40 per 1,000. If you buy 5,000 credits, ALL credits are priced at $30 per 1,000. The more you buy, the better rate you get on your entire purchase. Credits are consumed based on the features you use - base background removal starts at 0.25 credits for small images up to 5 credits for high-resolution. You only pay for the features you actually use.

Output variants allow you to generate multiple versions of the same processed image in a single API call. For example, you can create a full-size PNG with transparent background, a cropped JPG with white background, and a thumbnail WebP - all at once. The first variant is included in the base cost, and each additional variant costs +0.25 credits.

AI background generation is priced per megapixel, so cost scales with your output resolution. Generating a 2MP background costs much less than a 25MP background. Our internal AI model offers the most cost-effective option, while premium models provide state-of-the-art quality at higher cost. Final pricing will be announced soon.
