Who Is This For?
Clipdrop is for designers, marketers, e-commerce sellers, and content creators who need quick AI-powered image edits — background removal, upscaling, object removal, and relighting — without opening Photoshop.
About Clipdrop
Clipdrop is an AI image editing toolkit built by Stability AI (the company behind Stable Diffusion). It bundles several powerful AI tools into one platform: instant background removal, image upscaling up to 4x, object and text removal, AI relighting that changes the light source in photos, and generative fill for expanding or editing images.
Each tool works independently and is accessible via web or API. The background removal is among the most accurate available, handling complex edges like hair and transparent objects. The upscaler enhances resolution while adding genuine detail — not just blurring. Uncrop expands images beyond their original borders using AI generation.
For developers, Clipdrop's API provides programmatic access to all tools, making it easy to integrate AI image editing into apps and workflows. The free tier includes limited daily processing with watermarks on some outputs.
