Hostinger AI Background Remover is a browser-based tool that uses artificial intelligence to automatically detect the main subject in a photo and erase the background around it. It requires no manual masking or editing skills: users upload an image, the AI processes it, and a clean cutout is produced with attention to fine edge details like hair and fur. Output can be downloaded in JPG, JPEG, or PNG format. It was formerly offered under the Zyro brand before Zyro's tools and customers were folded into Hostinger.

The tool is part of Hostinger's broader suite of AI utilities (alongside an AI image upscaler, AI image generator, and AI website builder). A Hostinger account is required to use it. New users get a limited number of free background removals, after which continued use requires a paid Hostinger plan, since credits for premium AI tools are allotted based on subscription tier.

Clipping Magic is a web-based image editing tool built specifically for background removal.

Results can be exported as transparent PNGs, solid-color backgrounds, SVG clipping paths, or TIFFs with embedded paths, and the tool supports images up to 25 megapixels.

The product is aimed at photographers, e-commerce sellers, and designers who need clean product cutouts or graphics-mode edits that preserve pixel-level detail in logos. It offers bulk processing with saved default settings for catalog work, plus post-processing controls for cropping, shadows, brightness, and color. Clipping Magic runs on a credit-based subscription model (one credit per image) rather than a flat monthly fee, and also offers a developer API for programmatic background removal.
