Standalone cutout tool for photo and video

NameCut.
Name it. Cut it.

Drop a photo or short video, type the object, pick keep, cut, or blur, and download PNG, WebM, or a PNG sequence. No editor timeline, no suite, just the transparent file you came for.

Built on state of the art promptable segmentation. Across 21 real tests, it picked the right object every time, tracked moving subjects through full clips, and cleanly reported no match when the object was not there. Pro works out to under 2 cents per photo where the closing rival charged 10 to 20 cents.

Prompt: dog. Drag the slider to compare the frame and the transparent cutout.

Your files stay yours

Uploads and finished files are deleted after 24 hours, and every job has a delete button for right now. We never train on your files and never sell them.

Try it without an account

Run a photo with no signup and see the result in your browser. You only need a free account when it is time to download.

Cancel anytime

Plans are month to month. Cancel when you like, and your plan keeps running until the end of the period you paid for.

No surprise bills

Every plan stops at a hard monthly cap. Hit the cap and jobs pause. There is never an overage charge.

How it works

One flow for a still and a tracked clip. You name the thing, not the background.

1

Drop it in.

A photo or a short clip, straight from your phone or desktop.

2

Name the thing.

Type what to keep, cut, or blur. The red car. Your dog. The license plate.

3

Take the file.

A transparent PNG, WebM, or PNG sequence, ready to use.

About a minute, start to finish. No editor, no timeline, no project file.

Real masks, no mockups

Every cutout here came out of the live NameCut pipeline, the same one the product runs. Example photos and clips are from Pexels.

Two dogs playing in a backyardBeforeCutout
PetsPrompt: dog, then pick one

Two matches, one pick

The prompt found both dogs. The instance picker keeps the one you mean, here the brown dog. In the source clip both dogs kept their own track on all 300 frames.

PetsPrompt: dog, tracked through a video clip

Tracked video, not frame by frame work

The same prompt tracks a moving subject across the clip, so the export works as a transparent overlay in your editor.

SellersPrompt: sneakers

Both shoes, one phrase

The prompt returned each shoe as its own instance, and the export keeps both. The orange, pink, and green backdrop is gone, so the pair is ready for a listing photo.

PortraitsPrompt: person

The hair edge, unretouched

One prompt kept the whole person, hat, hands, and long hair included. Zoom in and the scarf fringe has small gaps. That is the real mask, shown as it came out.

An orange vintage car on a city streetBeforeCutout
PrivacyPrompt: license plate, blur mode

Blur mode finds the plate

The first prompt found the plate, and blur mode softened only that patch. The car, the street, and everything around it stay sharp.

InteriorsPrompt: sofa, cut mode

Cut mode takes the sofa out

Cut mode removes the named object and leaves the scene standing, with a clear hole where it sat. The two loose pillows were not part of the sofa mask, so they stay behind. That is the real mask, shown as it came out.

Why NameCut wins

Background removers keep the main subject and charge per file. NameCut cuts the one named thing, in photo and tracked video. Here is the whole board.

A half filled mark means a partial yes. In editor suites the capability lives inside a full editor, not as a standalone job. In background removers it covers part of the job, like blurring the background instead of the named object, or batch work through a separate desktop app.

Rival prices are their published per unit rates. NameCut figures are the full plan use math on the Pro plan.

On quality: the underlying segmentation model reaches 75 to 80 percent of human performance on the SA-Co benchmark of 270K concepts, and its latest version improved on 6 of 7 public video tracking benchmarks.

The simple standalone flow is going away

Unscreen has already shut down and remove.bg is winding down its standalone site as the tools fold into bigger suites. If you liked dropping one file and leaving with one transparent asset, NameCut is that flow, widened to any named object in photo and tracked video.

1

Run your usual job

One photo in, one foreground cutout out. The Main subject chip keeps the main subject, just like the tool you are leaving. The chip arrives with the studio opening.

2

Then name anything

When the background is not the problem, type the object instead. Keep, cut, or blur any named object, in photos and tracked video.

3

Stop watching credits

Flat monthly plans with hard caps replace per file credits that expire. The plan price is the whole bill.

Every plan stops at its cap. There are never overage bills. Need more than Studio gives, for example an hour of video a month? Write to us and we can set a larger monthly allowance on the same standard terms.

Paid plans open from the waitlist first. Pick a plan above and we email your invite when billing opens.

Sell products or need it in your stack?

NameCut starts as a standalone website, with an API and light connectors arriving at the billing milestone. Shopify is the first native app on our list, ahead of Etsy, eBay, and WooCommerce. Join the waitlist and name your platform and monthly volume, so real demand picks the order for the native apps.

FAQ

What can I cut?

Any object you can name in a noun phrase, in a photo or a short video. A product, a person, a pet, a car part, the one chair in the corner. If nothing matches, NameCut says so plainly instead of guessing.

How is this different from a background remover?

Background removers keep the main foreground and drop the rest. NameCut cuts the named thing, which can be one object among many, and it works the same way on tracked video.

What do I download?

Photos export as transparent PNG. Video exports as transparent WebM, with a PNG sequence on Pro and Studio plans. Files drop into editors, stores, and decks without extra cleanup.

How does billing and canceling work?

Plans renew monthly on the same date, and your account page always shows the next renewal date and amount. You manage everything yourself in one place: switch plans, update your card, or cancel. Canceling keeps the plan running to the end of the paid month, with no refund for the remaining days, and it simply does not renew.

When does it launch?

A private beta is next. Waitlist members get the first invites and launch pricing news.

Is there an API or a Shopify app?

The API arrives at the billing milestone, priced per image and per video minute, and Zapier and Make connectors ride on top of it. A native Shopify app comes later, and the waitlist platform and volume answers decide which native app ships first.

What happens to my remove.bg credits on December 1, 2026?

They expire with the shutdown, and they do not transfer anywhere. NameCut has no credits at all. One flat monthly plan price covers a monthly cut allowance, and nothing you paid for disappears on a shutdown date.

I build on the remove.bg API. Is a NameCut API coming?

Yes. The API lands at the billing milestone, and a call by call migration guide lands with it, mapping the calls you make today to ours. Pick API as your platform in the waitlist form, and that tag is your early access door when the API opens.

What does NameCut do with my data?

We store your uploads, the masks and previews made from them, and your finished exports, only so the studio can do the job and hand you the files. Source and output files are deleted after 24 hours, and the delete button on any job removes its files right away. Your file is processed only to make the export you asked for. Files are never used for training and never sold. For anything about your data, including a deletion, write to support@namecut.io.

What if I need more than my plan allows?

Plans stop at their caps, and there are never overage bills. If you regularly need more, for example an hour of video a month or thousands of photos, write to support@namecut.io and we can set a larger monthly allowance for you on the same standard terms.

How do I reach a human?

Write to support@namecut.io. You never need to send your files to get help. Describe the job instead: what you uploaded, the phrase you typed, and what came back. That is usually enough for us to reproduce the problem.

Join the waitlist

Tell us where you would use NameCut and how much you cut in a month. That data sets the beta order and the first integration we build.

No card needed. One email when the studio opens, and that is it. No spam, no list sharing.
