Hi Product Hunt, this is Jeff Li, I'm the maker of CutoutClip.

CutoutClip is for creators and editors who need a subject (a person, or an object, pet or cartoon) cut out of a video or GIF to use as an overlay, without opening a full editor or paying for a subscription.

What it does: upload an MP4, MOV or animated GIF (up to 500 MB) and get back a transparent WebM with your original audio, at up to 1080p (4K clips are processed at 1080p) and your frame rate up to 30 fps. A 10-second clip usually takes 15-30 seconds of processing, sometimes up to a minute. There are also editor-ready formats: ProRes 4444 MOV with alpha, alpha matte, green screen, solid, blurred or custom backgrounds, a transparent GIF and an animated WebP. For GIF uploads we tested 8 GIFs: a cat, a bottle, a dog on snow and a cartoon scene worked; two running dogs, a captioned meme and thin line art did not.

How it is different: no account, and pricing is per video. Clips up to 10 seconds are free (3 per day, no watermark). Longer clips up to 2 minutes are $4.99 each, with an automatic refund if processing fails. Before paying you can process the first 5 seconds free to check the cutout. We publish before/after samples including a failure case, and a test of 6 AI models with cost and speed.

Current limits: you choose Person or Object, pet or cartoon before uploading, and it works best with one clear subject. Several moving subjects, blurry subjects, caption text and thin line art can fail. A transparent GIF always has hard edges (GIF has 1-bit transparency); the WebP keeps soft ones. There is no API and no app. Safari can't play WebM transparency.

Question for you: which export format or feature is missing from your workflow, and what kind of footage should we test next?
