The record

Purpose: Pixian.AI is a website for automatically removing backgrounds from images.
Processing: Its servers use GPUs and multi-core CPUs to analyze images and remove their backgrounds.
File formats: It accepts JPEG, PNG, BMP, GIF, and WebP inputs, and produces PNG for transparent results or JPEG and PNG for opaque results.
Image limits: The maximum free website image size is 250,000 pixels, the maximum paid image size is 25 megapixels, and the maximum file size is 30 megabytes.
Image types: The site says it works on a broad range of images, including people, and distinguishes itself on objects, artworks, logos, and scans.
API clients: API examples are provided for cURL, Java, .NET, Node.js, PHP, Python, and Ruby.
API testing: API integration and testing are free without a purchase; test requests can use test=true, and production results require a credit pack.
Security: API requests must use HTTPS and HTTP Basic authentication with the API ID as username and API Secret as password.
Rate limits: API usage is rate limited with generous allowances and no hard upper bound; the documentation recommends contacting Pixian.AI before using more than 100 concurrent threads.
Data retention: The site says it currently retains 10% of uploaded images and all results for 24 hours before deleting them shortly thereafter; API images are never persisted to non-volatile storage.
Image rights: The FAQ says its terms grant rights needed to provide the service and improve products, that Pixian.AI claims no rights to results, and that images are not shared with third parties without authorization.
Support: The About page lists support by email at [email protected] and provides a voicemail phone number.
Company: Cedar Lake Ventures, Inc., which operates Pixian.AI, describes itself as a small company based in the Minneapolis area.
Headquarters: Excelsior, Minnesota, United States
Price from: $5/mo
