Hey everyone πŸ‘‹ I am really proud to share Trace with you today. We started using it in-house and saved our design team over 100 hours already. Using Trace requires no design experience. Upload your image and the technology automatically removes the background. It takes less than 10 seconds. We want to help you make your awesome photos more awesome. Not everyone is a designer, but everyone wants to make beautiful things. Trace cuts out the subject (like your prized pet) so it can be used in all kinds of different projects. The tool is completely free so try it and let us know what you think!

@ac132 awesome product and awesome explainer video!
Tudor Baidoc
Has anyone compared it to https://www.remove.bg/ ? Is it better?
Rob Moore
@baidoct it works well for products and people but Smart Pix is better generally: https://floom.app/service/smart-pix
Will Harris
@baidoct I used remove.bg prior, but I definitely prefer Trace. It's faster, and you get a more hi-res image in return.

@baidoct @robmoore tried Floom's smart-pix and it simply gave me two FAILED errors on both photos I tried. Trace handled both these photos perfectly. I'm used to painstakingly removing backgrounds with Photoshop and the results Trace gave were as good if not better than I could have done in a fraction of the time. Based on my results today, I will use Trace from here on. Smart Pix didn't even try to remove the bg from my photos. Great job Trace team!

@baidoct @patrick_villella smart-pix was temporarily down from the traffic, sorry about that, all images that failed have been reprocessed :)
Patrick V
@robmoore Ah, glad to hear it. It would be good to have a different error message than 'Failed' when the service is overloaded. I just assumed that it couldn't handle my images, not that it was overwhelmed with traffic. The rest of the site seemed to function fine. I'll give Smart-Pix another go and see how it compares. Thanks!
@Bernardamus
Just tried in a number of different images , it works great .. no need for tweaking , very fast & effective. Good job!
David Traver
@bernardamus thanks so much for your feedback!
@Bernardamus
@ashvi_corporation I guess they have to make a living somehow.... but for a casual user like me it's perfect. What is the alternative that you would suggest?
Kevin Welch
I've tried) It works good!

This is such an awesome example of "SEO project marketing" (shoutout @harrydry) and I'm sure it'll drive loads of new customers to Sticker Mule. I was a big fan of remove.bg when it came out - good to see deep learning models being democratized and making their way into real world products! I'm curious if you could give any detail on the model you're using - are you using UNet and what dataset did you use? Here's an open source implementation of background removal using UNet if anyone is interested: https://github.com/eti-p-doray/u... Congratulations on the launch! :)

@alxcnwy Yep - A really great side project. Especially since you have to create an account to be able to use it haha!

@vineta_gajevska thanks!! πŸ˜€
Stanislav Podyachev
Nice project! It could be better if you add option to download my own background.
David Traver
@stanislav_podyachev1 thanks for your feedback, we're working on adding that feature soon! πŸ˜„
Magdalen Richard

Elisiya Uiver
I want something similar for iOS
David Traver
@elisiya_uiver Trace works great on mobile too! In Safari, upload a photo from your photo library, make any edits, then download. Your downloaded image will appear in the upper right where you can select it and either add to your library, share, or do whatever. Here's an example: https://share.getcloudapp.com/z8...

Scam, Fake, Not free & not usable. Spammed my email address.
Armand
@deleted-2198008 Do you mean they are sharing a tool in exchange for a small percentage of visitors who find value in making them stickers for moneyz? That's the exact opposite of spam.
Michael Musgrove
Works great! A very useful little tool.
