About Cleanup.pictures

You've got a vacation shot that's nearly perfect, except for the stranger walking through the frame and a date stamp burned into the corner. Cleanup.pictures is built for exactly that fix. You drag and drop the image onto cleanup.pictures, brush over what you don't want, and the AI fills in what it guesses was behind it. The site pitches this as the job photographers do before printing for clients: "remove time stamps or remove tourists from holiday pictures." It also mentions repairing cracks on old photographs, which makes it handy for restoration work too.

The pitch against older tools is clear. A clone stamp, like the one in Adobe Photoshop Fix, needs a clean background reference to copy from. Cleanup's inpainting model tries to reconstruct the hidden area on its own, so you aren't hunting for a patch of matching wall or sky. One testimonial from a marketing director at Raek says she fought "weird smears and lines" in other programs, then finished the same photo here in about 30 seconds. That's one customer quote, not a benchmark, but it matches what the tool claims to be good at.

The workflow carries over to other jobs the site lists. Real estate agents can strip personal items out of room photos, e-commerce sellers can clean up product shots for Instagram stories, and anyone can remove text, logos or watermarks. The free plan gives you unlimited images, but exports are capped at 720px. If you need full-resolution output, Pro costs $5 a month or $36 a year, and there's a usage-based API for developers who want inpainting inside their own product. It's a narrow tool that does one thing, and that focus is the point.

Key features

Brush-based object removal

You paint over a person, object, text or defect and the AI fills the area with what it predicts should be there.

Text, logo and watermark removal

The site specifically advertises removing unwanted text, logos, date stamps and watermarks from images.

Photo defect repair

Cleanup.pictures pitches itself as a way to remove cracks from photographs, which is useful for scanning and restoring old prints.

High quality refiner on Pro

The Pro plan adds a high quality refiner and removes the 720px export limit so you can process images at any resolution.

Inpainting API

Developers can call the same inpainting tech through an API with usage-based pricing and its own documentation.

Cross-device subscription

A single Pro subscription works on both mobile and desktop, according to the FAQ.

Best for

  • photographers removing tourists and time stamps before printing
  • real estate agents depersonalizing room photos
  • e-commerce sellers cleaning up product shots
  • developers who need inpainting via API
  • anyone restoring cracked or damaged old photos

Skip if

  • Skip it if you need full-resolution output for free, since free exports are capped at 720px
  • Skip it if your team needs shared seats, because each subscription is limited to 1 user
  • Skip it if you want background replacement, uncrop or generative fill on the $5 plan, since those sit in ClipDrop Pro

Pros & cons

Pros

  • The free tier is genuinely useful: unlimited images with no credit system, just a 720px export cap
  • Pro is cheap at $5/mo, or $36/yr which works out to $3/mo
  • No background reference needed, unlike clone stamp tools such as Adobe Photoshop Fix
  • Drag and drop on the homepage means you can test it in seconds without setup
  • An API with usage-based pricing lets you build the same inpainting into your own app

Cons

  • Free exports top out at 720px, which is too small for print or most client deliverables
  • Subscriptions are individual and limited to 1 user, with no team plan mentioned
  • Refunds after activation are only granted in rare cases like technical issues, full within 14 days and prorated after
  • API pricing is listed as "special pricing" and usage-based, so you won't know your cost until you dig into the docs

Frequently asked questions

Is Cleanup.pictures actually free?

Yes, the free plan gives you unlimited images. The catch is that exports are limited to 720px, so you'll need Pro at $5/mo for higher resolution.

How is it different from a clone stamp in Photoshop?

Clone tools like Adobe Photoshop Fix need a background reference to copy from. Cleanup's AI guesses what was behind the removed object, which is faster for busy backgrounds.

What does Pro cost and what do you get?

Pro is $5 per month or $36 per year, which is $3 per month. It adds unlimited resolution exports and a high quality refiner.

Can my whole team share one subscription?

No. Each subscription is limited to 1 user, so a team of 5 would need 5 separate subscriptions.

What's the refund policy?

Refunds after activation are only given in rare cases like technical difficulties or platform incompatibility. They're full within 14 days and prorated after that, so use the free trial to test HD quality first.

How Cleanup.pictures compares

Cleanup.pictures vs Adobe Photoshop

Photoshop gives you far more control and editing tools, but Cleanup.pictures is faster and much cheaper if object removal is the only job you need done.

Cleanup.pictures vs Canva Magic Eraser

Canva makes sense if you're already designing in Canva, while Cleanup.pictures is the simpler pick when you just want to fix a photo and export it.

Cleanup.pictures vs ClipDrop

ClipDrop bundles Cleanup with background removal, uncrop and generative fill from $11, so upgrade there only if you need more than object removal.
