      <title>Transparent PNG: the guide, and a help center</title>
      <link>https://awacut.com/en/transparent-png-background-remover/</link>
      <guid isPermaLink="false">https://awacut.com/en/transparent-png-background-remover/#2026-09-09</guid>
      <pubDate>Wed, 09 Sep 2026 12:00:00 GMT</pubDate>
      <description>Two new pages. A guide to exporting transparent PNGs: which of PNG, WebP and JPG actually keep an alpha channel, the three things that most often make a cutout come back white, and how to convert a whole folder at once. And a help center with seventeen support answers about installing on each platform, batches, output formats and how the licence behaves offline, each one checked against the application's own source rather than against our marketing copy.</description>

      <title>remove.bg's own questions, answered</title>
      <link>https://awacut.com/en/remove-bg-alternatives/</link>
      <guid isPermaLink="false">https://awacut.com/en/remove-bg-alternatives/#2026-09-09</guid>

      <description>The migration page now answers three more questions in the words remove.bg uses on its own FAQ, including what happens to account data. One of them carries a deadline worth passing on: remove.bg says the credit usage report and the invoices cannot be downloaded after 1 December 2026, and sellers need those invoices for their accounting long after the service is gone.</description>

      <title>Background Removal Pricing Index: the open dataset behind the cost study</title>
      <link>https://awacut.com/en/cost-per-1000-images/#dataset</link>
      <guid isPermaLink="false">https://awacut.com/en/cost-per-1000-images/#dataset#2026-09-08</guid>
      <pubDate>Tue, 08 Sep 2026 12:00:00 GMT</pubDate>
      <description>The cost study now sits on a named, downloadable dataset: every published plan of remove.bg, Slazzer, Erase.bg, Pixelcut, Photoshop and AwaCut on the date it was read (append-only, so it becomes a price history), plus the computed yearly cost of 100 to 10,000 images a month and the marginal cost of one more image. Two CSV files, CC BY 4.0, data dictionary and known limitations on the page, Dataset schema, a social card drawn from the numbers. The interest disclosure is stated in the first screen.</description>

      <title>How to remove the background from 500 photos at once</title>
      <link>https://awacut.com/en/how-to-remove-background-from-500-photos/</link>
      <guid isPermaLink="false">https://awacut.com/en/how-to-remove-background-from-500-photos/#2026-08-15</guid>

      <description>Answer page: one folder, one drop, then a single export. The timing first published here was an estimate; it was replaced on 2026-09-08 by a measured benchmark, about 3 seconds an image and roughly 25 minutes for 500 on an Apple Silicon Mac.</description>

      <title>AwaCut 1.0.2: cleaner edges, safer exports</title>
      <link>https://awacut.com/en/</link>
      <guid isPermaLink="false">https://awacut.com/en/#2026-08-14</guid>

      <description>AwaCut now measures the photo's original background and removes its tint from semi-transparent edges (hair, fur, glass), so cutouts drop cleanly onto any new background. Also fixes a rare case where exporting into the originals' folder through a symlinked path could overwrite the source photo.</description>
