Use tool ↗About Cleanup.pictures
Cleanup.pictures is a single-purpose inpainting page: drop in an image, paint over an object, person, watermark or date stamp, and the model reconstructs whatever was behind it. There are no layers, projects or accounts to manage, just one canvas and a brush size. Free exports stop at 720px, the paid tier removes the resolution ceiling, and the same inpainting model is sold separately to developers as an API.

Pros & cons of Cleanup.pictures
Still the fastest free object eraser on the open web when you need one photo cleaned and refuse to make an account. It has been frozen for years though, so anything at print resolution or in volume belongs in its own successor ClipDrop or in Photoshop's generative fill.
Pros
- no signup or upload queue, usable within seconds of landing on the page
- $3-5 a month is the cheapest unlimited-resolution inpainting subscription around
- the inpainting model is documented as an API with samples for Node.js, SwiftUI and Kotlin
Cons
- the site has not visibly changed since 2022 and still carries the pre-acquisition owner's copyright notice
- one seat per subscription, with no team or shared billing option
- output quality now trails newer generative-fill models on anything large
- free exports are hard-capped at 720px, which is unusable for print
Best for
- one-off removal of a tourist, sign or timestamp from a photo
- stripping logos or watermarks from images you already hold the rights to
- real-estate and product shots that need depersonalising in seconds
Not for
- large removals where the model has to invent a lot of structure
- anyone needing layers, masks, undo history or batch processing
- print-resolution work on the free tier, which stops at 720px
Watch out: The product passed through two acquisitions (Init ML to Stability AI, then to Jasper alongside ClipDrop) and is effectively in maintenance mode, so do not build a production workflow on it.
