Remove backgrounds for two cents, not a subscription
Select an image on Ciyo's canvas and press Remove BG: one click, no masking, and a transparent PNG lands next to the original. Each removal costs 2 credits — two US cents.
2 credits per image
One removal costs two US cents. A $10 pack of 1,000 credits covers 500 background removals.
No subscription
Credit packs are one-time purchases. There is no recurring charge.
Transparent PNG out
The result is a clean cut-out with a transparent background, ready to place.
Credits never expire
Unused credits stay in your account, and a failed removal refunds its credits automatically.
How it works
Put the photo on the canvas
Upload a product shot — or select an image you generated on the board. PNG, JPG, and WebP sources work.
Press Remove BG
One click on the selected-image toolbar. No masking, no brush work — the subject is detected and cut out automatically.
Place it anywhere
The transparent PNG lands next to the original. Drop it on a new backdrop, generate a scene behind it with an image model, or upscale it for print.
Built for product photos
Marketplace listings, catalogs, and ads all want the same thing: the product, cleanly cut out, on whatever background the channel demands. That makes background removal a volume job — dozens of SKUs, several angles each — and volume is exactly where subscription pricing hurts.
On Ciyo the whole job lives on one canvas. Line the shots up, remove the backgrounds one click at a time, and keep originals and cut-outs side by side. When a listing needs a lifestyle scene instead of white, hand the cut-out to an image model as a reference and generate the backdrop around it.
Two cents, honestly priced
Most background removers sell monthly plans and meter them in opaque credits, so the per-image price only becomes clear after you have subscribed. Ciyo prices the operation directly: 2 credits per image, and one credit is one US cent. The number is on screen before you click.
There is no free tier, because every removal is a real provider operation — and no watermark, queue, or daily cap in exchange. A $10 one-time pack of 1,000 credits is 500 removals, and whatever you do not use stays in your account for the next batch.
Frequently asked questions
How much does background removal cost?
2 credits per image — two US cents. A $10 one-time pack adds 1,000 credits, which covers 500 removals. There is no subscription.
What do I get back?
A transparent PNG of the subject, placed on the canvas next to your original so you can compare and reuse both.
Which files does it accept?
PNG, JPG, and WebP sources up to 5MB and 16 megapixels, with the longest side at most 4096 pixels and the shortest at least 256 pixels.
Do I have to mask the subject myself?
No. Removal is a single click on the selected image — the subject is detected automatically. Hair, edges, and fine detail are handled by the model.
Can I put the product on a new background?
Yes. The cut-out is a normal canvas image: drop it onto any backdrop, or use it as a reference and let one of Ciyo's image models generate a scene around it.
Do my credits expire?
No. Credits never expire, and a failed removal refunds its credits to your balance automatically.
Clean cut-outs by the image
Open the canvas, drop in a product photo, and remove its background for two cents. The rest of your credits will wait for the next batch.
