We'll likely add complementary AI models (e.g. super-resolution, stable diffusion, etc), with the broad bet being that businesses definitely don't want to run their own service, and would prefer off-the-shelf to custom models (for which there's a bunch of hosting options).

For background removal specifically, all models will inevitably have some failure rate. https://clippingmagic.com is the only one with a serious editor that enables you to get exactly the result you want on any image (it's our legacy service with "old-school" SaaS pricing).




I signed up and used it via API. Decent results and FAST! I'll keep using it via API. Looking forward to seeing what else you guys come up with. Thanks!

I think that broad bet is a good one. Simple API endpoints with a good selection of curated models will certainly be a hit. There are lots of options for hosting, and quite a few API providers, but they're all some combination of overly complicated, slow, brittle, or functionally limited.


Do you have any ETA for the super-resolution AI service ?


Runpod has super-resolution via API.
