    Hello there

    Thank you for your awesome plugin.

    1.Please add the feature to automatically remove the background/replace it with desired color upon uploading.

    2.Please support the AVIF format. It’s the best image format and successor to Webp format. Your plugin doesn’t support it.

    3.If the process is done on external server, please bring it to local host (user server)

    Hello,

    Thanks for your time for writing the feedback for us.

    1 – Sure, we will design a flow for replacing the background on image upload as well.
    2 – Sure
    3 – We would love to, but not possible. Because the AI model requires considerable amount computing power to function (16 cores of CPU at least), and is not possible to be runned on users’ servers.

    Having any further questions or suggestions, please let me know.

    Thanks for your efforts, about Q/A number 3 I’d like to add:

    Some users have this capability so you can give this choice to users to select self-hosted o remote server, it’s the best option. Your plugin only process a mere 5 images per day. I’m making my own marketplace with millions of products, so it’s so much restrictive for users like me.

    For this problem there are two solutions: Self-hosted or Premium service like other image background removers.

    The AI model is writen in python and the code base has over 4GB of size, definitely all users does not have python installed on their server and is cannot be shipped by a WP plugin either.

    We are working on a new cloud archirecture to reduce the cost and time of process, to increase the limit. For higher quota we will introduce a paid service as well. Users can process 5000 images with maxiumum quality for just with $5/mo.
