Mask Integrator AI Automatic Background Removal with AI

Live Background Removals with Real-Time Visual Feedback

Mask Integrator AI is the ideal software solution for anyone who wants to remove backgrounds from product, fashion, or vehicle photos during the shoot — with immediate visual control. It’s perfect for studios, photo booths in marketing departments and for users of our hardware.

The software automatically detects new incoming images (e.g., via hot folder or Serial Shot) and applies real-time AI-powered background removal. Results are instantly displayed — either with a transparent background or embedded into a custom scene.

Free Trial & Licensing Model

• Get 100 AI-based background removals for free with a My Picture Instruments account (1,000 credits included)
• Receive 1,000 monthly credits when subscribing to a matching software bundle for our hardware or through the Own Studio Production Bundle
• Purchase additional credits on demand or save money with a subscription plan

Convenient Billing via Credits - 10 Credits per Image

The processing is billed via a flexible credit system, with each background removal costing 10 credits. Buy credits on demand or secure a certain volume per month at a lower price with a subscription - this way the accounting adapts perfectly to your work volume.

• Rollover of unused subscription credits: Unused credits from an active subscription are automatically carried over to following months as long as your subscription is active.
• Validity of credits purchased on demand: Credits remain valid for 2 years from the date of purchase, after which they expire.
• Usage order: Credits with the nearest expiration date are used first.
• Canceling a credit subscription: All credits from a subscription can be used until the end of the billing period. After expiration, unused credits are forfeited. If you have multiple subscriptions, they are treated separately.
• Mix credits on demand and subscription credits: You can have multiple subscriptions and buy additional credits on demand. Multiple subscriptions must be considered separately, both in terms of refilling credits at the time of billing, as well as with regard to carryover to the next month and expiry after termination. With multiple subscriptions and/or credit packages, the system always uses the credits with the closest expiration date.
• Software availability: You can continue using the software as long as credits are available. Even when your credits run out, your settings remain saved (unless you uninstall the software), allowing for a smooth restart when new credits are added.
