How AwaCut works

Three steps. No manual needed.

  1. 1. Drag your photos in

    Drop single photos or whole folders into the app window.

  2. 2. AwaCut removes the backgrounds

    Everything runs on your computer, about 3 seconds per photo.

  3. 3. You get transparent PNGs

    Each cutout is saved as a PNG next to your original file.

Real, down to the settings

What you see is what installs. Pick your theme, formats and export folders, in any of 48 languages.

Everything you need to remove backgrounds

Made for shops, sellers and photographers with lots of photos.

True bulk

Drag in 500 photos at once. AwaCut works through the whole batch on its own, about 3 seconds per photo.

Works offline

Background removal needs no connection. Use it on a plane, at a market stall or on bad hotel wifi.

No uploads, no waiting

A big batch means gigabytes of photos. Sending them to a web tool takes longer than AwaCut needs to finish the job.

Private by design

The model runs on-device: your photos stay on your computer. They are never uploaded and never used to train AI.

Unlimited photos

No credits, no quotas, no counter. Process as many photos as you want.

No account needed

No sign-up, no login, no browser tabs. Open the app and start.

Pay once a year

One yearly price instead of a monthly bill. That is less than $2.50 a month.

Full resolution kept

Your cutouts keep the original size and sharpness of your photos.

See it on real photos

Hair, leather and fine edges. These cutouts come from the same model that ships in the app.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does AwaCut remove backgrounds offline?

Yes. The AI model ships inside the app, so your images never leave your computer and a whole folder can be cut with no connection at all. The licence itself is activated online once and revalidated about once a month.

Can I remove backgrounds from multiple images at once?

Yes. Drag in hundreds of images and AwaCut processes them locally, one after another, at about 3 seconds per image. Bulk background removal is exactly what it is built for.

Is there a per-image limit or credit system?

No. AwaCut has no credits and no quotas: one plan, unlimited images.

Is AwaCut a remove.bg alternative?

Yes, for offline and bulk use. AwaCut uploads nothing, charges no per-image credits and processes unlimited images for one yearly price.

What does AwaCut cost?

$29 per year for macOS, Windows and Linux. One licence covers 2 computers.

What image formats are supported?

AwaCut reads JPG, PNG, WebP, BMP and TIFF. Cutouts export as PNG with a real alpha channel, or as WebP or JPG when you pick a solid background.

I paid but I cannot find the licence key email. Where is it?

Check Spam or Promotions first: the email comes from Polar, our payment provider, with the subject "You're now subscribed to AwaCut". Your key is also always available in your Polar customer portal, opened from that email. Still stuck? Write to support@awacut.com and we will sort it out.

Windows says "Windows protected your PC". Is AwaCut safe to run?

Yes. The warning appears because the Windows installer is not yet signed with a Microsoft-verified publisher certificate, which is a paid identity check for the company, not a scan result; Windows Defender still scans the file as usual. Click "More info", then "Run anyway". Download only from awacut.com so you know the file is ours. The macOS build is signed and notarized by Apple and opens without a warning.
