The report card
Best for background removal and photo fixes by credit
Cutout.pro removes backgrounds and objects, enhances and colourises photos and makes passport photos, with desktop and phone apps, a Shopify plugin and an API. Everything costs credits, and the free account gives previews and 5 credits.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | B | $5 a month for 80 credits, inside the cheaper quarter of $8.33 but not under 60% of it. Pay-as-you-go credits run about $0.13 each at the 300 pack. |
| Free plan and trial | C | Free previews forever and 5 free credits, with more earned by inviting friends. Full-resolution downloads need credits, so you will hit the cap fast. |

| Ease of use | C | No store rating is on record. It is a web tool where you learn which tool costs how many credits. |

Part 04 · Standing
Where it stands
Its grades against its category, and whether to keep it or make your own
147/168
Other AI image and video generators it is graded above
Cutout.pro's GPA of 2.8 is higher than 147 of the 168 other AI image and video generators we grade, and level with 11.

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace Cutout.pro you would be making an image model, which you can rent by the picture but not make. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.8 is higher than 147 of the 168 other AI image and video generators we grade. It costs $60 a year.
What you could not
- An image model, which you can rent by the picture but not make.
- A video model, which you can rent by the second but not make.
- Apps for macOS, Windows, iOS and Android that stay in step with each other.
- It plugs into other products, Shopify among them, and has an API.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. Cutout.pro’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
