Description
AI Image Cleaner: Browser tool that erases people, objects, text and watermarks from photos: you paint over the area and AI fills in the background
LottieFiles: Platform for Lottie animations: lightweight JSON-based animations for web and mobile
Pros
- You choose exactly what to remove by painting over it
- Works in the browser, and you can upload and paint before creating an account
- Credit packs never expire, and failed jobs return their credits
- Lottie files are 10-20x smaller than GIFs and scale to any resolution without blur
- Huge free library of pre-made animations: loading spinners, icons, illustrations

Cons
- Run by an individual sole trader who is not named on the site
- The free credits cover about five cleans, once, and exports are capped at 2048 pixels
- Does one job only, so cropping, resizing and other edits need another editor
- Creating custom animations still requires After Effects or Rive: LottieFiles is mainly for using existing ones
- Free tier limits you to 10 file uploads per month
- Some community animations have inconsistent quality or missing frames
Details
AI Image Cleaner removes things you do not want from a photo. You upload a JPEG or PNG, paint over the person, object, text or watermark, and AI inpainting fills the area to match the surrounding background. You can upload and paint without an account; generating a result needs a Google sign-in.
It suits a founder who needs to tidy product photos, screenshots or social images now and then without opening a full photo editor. Exports go up to 2048 pixels.
Each clean uses 2 credits, and a new account gets 10 credits once, about five cleans. Basic costs $6 a month for 60 credits and Pro $12 a month for 200 credits, with a lower price on yearly billing. Credit packs, sold separately, never expire. The terms say the service is run by an individual sole trader.
Lottie is a file format created by Airbnb that stores animations as small JSON files instead of heavy video or GIF files. A typical loading animation is 2-5KB as a Lottie file versus 200KB+ as a GIF. LottieFiles is the platform built around this format: it hosts a library of free and paid animations, provides a web editor, and offers player libraries for every major platform.
For solo founders, the value is in the library. Need a loading spinner? Search, preview, download. Need an animated checkmark for your success state? Same. The free tier gives you access to thousands of community animations. Pro at $4.50/month adds a larger upload quota, background removal for animations, and priority support. Unless you are building an animation-heavy product, the free tier covers what you need.
