Built by a seller who got tired of paying per photo

RemovalForge exists because of a small, stupid, expensive problem. If you sell on Allegro or Amazon, every product you list needs a photo on a perfectly white background. Not an almost-white background. A photo taken in a light tent on your kitchen table is never white; it is grey, or faintly blue, or it has the edge of the tent in the corner. So you either buy a studio, or you pay a website a fee for every single image, forever, for a job that takes a computer two seconds.

We list hundreds of products a month across nine storefronts. At a few cents an image, that is a subscription that never ends and never improves. So we built the thing we needed, and then we made it free for everybody else, because the reason it costs us nothing is the same reason it can cost you nothing.

The trick: your computer does the work, not our server

Most background removers upload your photo to a server, process it there, and send it back. That server costs them money for every image, which is why they charge you for every image, and why they cap you, watermark you, or ask for your card.

RemovalForge does it differently. The neural network is downloaded once into your browser and runs on your own machine. Your photo is opened, cut out and rebuilt without a single byte leaving your computer. Open your browser network tab and watch: nothing goes out. That means we have no upload bill, no storage bill, and no processing bill, so there is no reason to charge you and no reason to limit you. It also means your unreleased product photos stay yours, which matters more than most sellers realise.

Why the white is the whole point

Here is the secret that separates listings that sell from listings that sit there. Marketplaces do not want white backgrounds for decoration. They want them because their search results are a grid, and a grid only works when every tile looks the same. When your competitor is on clean white and you are on beige, the buyer's eye reads your tile as noise and skips it. You never see this happen. You just see fewer sales.

So the platforms enforce it. Allegro requires the thumbnail to sit on white with the value RGB 255,255,255, and allows a light grey instead only in selected Fashion, Kids and Sport subcategories, defined in HSV with brightness of at least 0.8. Amazon goes further: pure white and the product must fill at least 85 percent of the frame, or the listing gets suppressed and quietly stops appearing in search while looking perfectly healthy in your dashboard. eBay does not force white, it just ranks you better when you use it, and switches on zoom at exactly 1600 pixels. Etsy wants 2000 pixels and punishes a first photo under 635 pixels.

Nobody tells you these numbers. You find them out by losing. We wrote every one of them down on the photo rules page, with a guide for each platform, and then we built the presets so you never have to think about any of it again. You tick a box, we hit the number exactly.

What we will never do

• Never charge per image. There is no credit system to run out of at midnight before a launch.
• Never watermark your work. Your product, your photo, your file.
• Never ask for an account. There is nothing to log into because there is nothing stored.
• Never receive your photos. Not encrypted, not deleted after 24 hours. Never received at all. That is a different promise and a stronger one.

Who is behind it

RemovalForge is operated by Bestmarketdealer Limited, a company registered in Ireland, running marketplace storefronts in Europe. The tool is built and maintained by the same people who use it every day on their own listings, which is the only reason it knows things like the 85 percent rule and the fashion grey exception. If it ever stops being useful to us, you will be the second to know.

Questions, bugs, or a platform you want us to add a preset for: bestmarketdealer@gmail.com. We read everything, and requests from sellers get built first.
