What it is
CutoutClip is a browser tool for removing the background from video without a green screen. You upload an MP4, MOV or animated GIF, choose whether the subject is a person or an object, pet or cartoon, and download the cutout as a transparent WebM. Clips up to 10 seconds are free, with three free clips per day and no signup. Longer videos, up to two minutes or 3,600 frames, cost a one-time fee per clip after a free five-second preview. Paid results include extra formats such as green screen MP4, MOV ProRes 4444 with alpha, GIF, WebP and alpha mattes. The site says it uses VEED's background removal model through fal.ai.

Editor's notes
More context from AI BirdView
CutoutClip stands out for its straightforward pricing and unusual candor. Short clips are free, longer ones cost a flat fee per video, and its pricing page even points out when a free competitor matched its result in the team's own test, which is a refreshing approach for a paid tool.
- Subject modes for people and for objects, pets or cartoons
- A wide export list, including transparent WebM, MOV ProRes 4444 with alpha, GIF, WebP and alpha matte MP4
- Background swaps to green screen, solid colors, your own image or a blurred version of the original
- A free five-second preview so you can judge quality before paying
- Automatic refunds when processing fails, plus a seven-day refund window
CutoutClip suits video editors, social creators and designers who need a clean cutout for a single clip without committing to a subscription. A practical tip: preview the trickiest stretch of your footage, such as hair moving in the wind, since that is where background removal is most likely to struggle.
