Pros and cons

AI Image Cleaner

Pros

  • Starts free: you can upload and paint without an account, and sign-in gives 6 credits for about 3 cleans
  • Brush masking gives precise control over thin items such as wires and partial people
  • Pay-as-you-go credit packs ($8 to $45) never expire, so no subscription is required
  • Failed jobs refund credits, and a 7-day first-subscription refund policy is published
  • Privacy policy states uploads are not sold or used to train third-party models, with about 30-day retention for signed-in history

Cons

  • The free allowance is a one-time 6 credits, with no recurring free credits
  • Generation requires a Google account; no other sign-in method was found
  • Web only, with no mobile app, API or batch processing
  • Very large masks that cover most of the frame leave little context for a natural fill, per the site's own FAQ
  • Operator is an individual or sole trader ("AI Image Cleaner Editorial") with no disclosed address or company details

Recraft

Pros

  • Generates editable SVG vectors on every plan, including Free
  • Custom styles and color palettes keep output consistent with a brand
  • Single workspace for generation, vector editing, upscaling, background removal and mockups
  • Gives access to external models such as Flux, GPT Image, Imagen and Nano Banana
  • Paid plans include private images and full commercial rights
  • Apps for iOS and Android, Figma and other plugins, and a public API and MCP server

Cons

  • Free plan images are public and not licensed for commercial use
  • Monthly credits expire each cycle, and costs per image vary by model (for example 2 credits for V4.1 and 10 for V4.1 Pro)
  • Video generation is not available on Free or Basic plans
  • Plan prices depend on credit tier, so cost rises quickly for heavy use
