ShotBG
Online image background removal tool: 3 free removals per day, no registration required, transparent PNG output.
About ShotBG
ShotBG is an online background removal tool. Users upload a JPG, PNG, or WebP image (up to 40 MiB per file) and can remove the background to get a PNG output that keeps the transparency channel. Free users can remove 3 images per day without registration; a paid plan is available when more usage is needed. Paid plans include up to 1,000 background removals and 20 custom AI backgrounds per month (UTC calendar month), with no daily cap and no ads. Large images are downscaled in the browser before processing, with an output of at most 1920 pixels on the long edge; the site advises checking the cutout results for hair, fur, glass, and low-contrast edges.

Cons
- No solid-color fill control; adding a solid-color background such as white requires downloading the cutout and finishing it in an external editor (such as GIMP)
