That's a great idea, thank you
Thanks a lot for your comments and feedback - some great great advice and ideas in here!
This is the MVP release of Unscreen Pro, so there's many more things to come in the future, from quality improvements, to an API, integrations, editing tools and more. Appreciate all the inputs :)
It's a hint for outdated browsers, it's not an ad and there's nothing malicious behind it (unless there's an issue in your local network or machine perhaps?).

It's a fine line though to not get into the way with things like this, and we could certainly improve it's appearance a bit - sorry for that.
We've built Unscreen on top of the tech of remove.bg, at least partly, and the #1 design goal for both products is a high result quality. We've summarized a few of the improvements recently here, if you're curious:

Some scenes, foregrounds, backgrounds, lighting conditions, movements, etc work better than others - there's a lot of potential for errors in videos and the videos from the examples page are straight from Unscreen Pro. We're continuously working on improving the AI though (NB: We don't use video uploads for that - see unscreen.com/privacy)
Thanks! Yes, professional 360° product shots are way too hard to produce right now and we're aiming make them much more accessible, particularly for smaller vendors
Since you mention images I assume you are referring to remove.bg, not unscreen.
We're working on an SDK that will allow for editing on external sites. You can sign up to our mailing list if you want to get notified when it's ready: https://www.remove.bg/blog#subscribe
It's a combination of deep learning and traditional computer vision algorithms. We do a lot of basic research, evaluate many different approaches, train them in dozens of variants and ultimately combine what performs best, then try to make it as easy to use as possible

Hi HN,
We're excited to launch Unscreen today, a tool to remove the background of any video or GIF 100% automatically. It's based on the tech of remove.bg, but adds temporal consistency for smooth results and is super fast.
Thanks for your interest - Feedback is highly appreciated!

Thanks!
Computation time increases quadratically with image size, so we had to set some limit. For now that's 500x500 px but we are looking into ways to increase the limit!
Video: Possible, we tried this prototypically already, but it would need some more optimization for good results (e.g. to avoid flickering between frames).
Hey HN! We originally built this as part of a bigger app but since removing backgrounds of images can be a tiresome task in itself we thought why not release it as a standalone tool? Feedback appreciated!
