How much does it cost to remove a video background?
Subscription, credits or per-video pricing: video cutout tools don't all charge the same way. Here are the official prices we checked, and the model that costs you least for your use.
Why is video background removal rarely free?
Because every frame goes through AI models running on graphics cards, and that computing has a real cost. One minute of video is well over a thousand frames to process.
Free plans exist, but they ration that computing: a few seconds, lower resolution or a watermark. Details in removing a background for free.
What pricing models are there?
There are three: a monthly subscription, credits or minutes bought upfront, and pay per video. Each suits a different kind of user.
- Subscription: worth it if you edit every week; something to cancel otherwise.
- Credits or minutes: you buy a bundle, sometimes with an expiry date.
- Pay per video: you only pay for what you export.
How much does Keyotte cost?
Keyotte is paid per video, VAT included: €1.99 up to 1 minute, €4.99 up to 5 minutes, €9.99 up to 10 minutes. No subscription, nothing to cancel.
The tier depends on the length of the video you upload, not on how many fixes or previews you use after paying.
| Video length | Price (VAT incl.) |
|---|---|
| up to 1 minute | €1.99 |
| up to 5 minutes | €4.99 |
| up to 10 minutes | €9.99 |
What's included in the price?
The price covers the full export as an MP4 up to 1080p, with sound and no watermark. Once the video is paid for, new renders after a fix are free.
Before paying, you get 3 free 10-second previews. After paying, you can request a refund from your account within 14 days, explaining the problem.
How do you compare with other tools?
Compare the price for your actual video length, not the headline price. On official pricing pages checked on 23 October 2026: Cutout.pro lists $9 for 1 minute of video, VideoBGRemover $10 for about 2 minutes, Kapwing Pro $16 for 1,000 credits a month.
A subscription can work out cheaper if you cut out a lot every month. Detailed comparisons: Keyotte vs Kapwing, Cutout.pro alternative.
How do you avoid paying for nothing?
Always check the result on your own footage before paying, and pick a pricing model that fits your pace. A forgotten subscription costs more than a few one-off videos.
With Keyotte, that's what the 3 free previews are for. Also trim your video to the useful part before uploading: a 50-second clip stays in the €1.99 tier, while a minute and a quarter moves to €4.99.
Export price : €1.99
