The AI behind pixel-perfect backgrounds

ProductBG uses state-of-the-art deep learning to distinguish your product from its background — automatically, at scale.

Our engine analyses every pixel using a convolutional neural network trained on millions of product and object images. It builds a probability map — rating each pixel as foreground (your product) or background — then applies a high-precision mask to isolate the subject.

Unlike simple colour-keying tools, this approach handles complex scenes: shadows, reflections, fine hair strands, semi-transparent packaging, and glossy surfaces are all handled gracefully.

Four accuracy tiers for every use case

Default auto_awesome

Balanced

Our default general-purpose model. Excellent results for the vast majority of product photos — bottles, boxes, clothing, electronics. Best speed-to-quality ratio.

inventory_2

Product

A model specialised for hard-edged objects and manufactured goods. Sharper cuts around geometric shapes, product packaging, and appliances.

Best quality diamond

High Quality

Our most powerful model. Handles hair, fur, fine jewellery, and transparent materials. Ideal when you need exhibition-grade precision. Slower — worth it for hero shots.

bolt

Fast

A lighter, faster variant of the Balanced model. Use it for high-volume workflows where speed matters more than absolute edge precision.
