Nordstrom: bulk removing product photos' backgrounds in no time

Creating product photos for e-commerce can be time-consuming and cost a ton. The luxury department store chain Nordstrom has managed to speed up their time when launching a new product on their website while lowering the cost of editing images thanks to remove.bg.

That process used to happen externally, but since implementing remove.bg it's been happening in-house. The company now manages to edit the product photos for their e-commerce store quicker and cutting costs per image by 60%.

Adoptimize: using remove.bg as the baseline of a new software for animal shelters

Removing backgrounds in bulk and adding new ones isn't just useful for the workflow of many businesses. It can also become the baseline of a software product or company.

Adoptimize created software where animal shelter workers can remove the background of multiple images and add a new colorful one to improve animals' adoption rates.

They implemented remove.bg into their software through the API and have managed to increase adoption rates and reduce operating costs for 250 shelters in the US.

We'll talk about how you can integrate remove.bg into your product below.

Deutsche Bahn: bulk image background remover for employer-branded content

Want your team photos to be consistent on your website or employer branding? You can use remove.bg to drag and drop your images in and remove your headshot backgrounds. You can then add a corporate-colored background or something a little more fun, like confetti.

You can also integrate it directly into your company's internal communication platform, like Deutsche Ban did. They incorporated the API to allow employees to create personalized content, in line with a campaign they worked on, Starke Schiene.

Bulk background remover for content production

Content production for social media managers can take up a lot of your time, and keeping things consistent ensures a strong visual brand. 

By bulk-removing image backgrounds and adding a new one just once a month instead of 3 times a week, you can get the job done in a lot less time. Plenty of social media managers are using remove.bg to take their content batching workflow to the next level.

When it comes to editing more than 1–10 photos, it is not very efficient to do so with the web app.

So let's dive in on how you can use the desktop app to bulk or batch a ton of photos.

remove.bg desktop app: how to use it to remove backgrounds in batch

You can bulk remove a ton of your image backgrounds by using the remove.bg desktop app.

Right off the bat: you will get one credit so that you can download one image for free. You also get 50 free previews per month without subscribing to a plan (keep in mind, though, that the preview images can only be up to 0.25 megapixels).

If you want to start processing more than one image, you can opt for a subscription or pay-as-you-go plan.

Here's a full breakdown of the remove.bg pricing plan. Bulk removing the backgrounds in your photos will cut down the labor cost of doing it manually so much; it's bound to pay for itself. It really is a no-brainer.

Ready to try it out?

1. Go ahead and download the remove.bg desktop app.

2. Open it up by going to > Downloads and double-clicking on it. Then go ahead and click on > Get Started.

3. Now log in to your remove.bg account or sign up if you don’t have one already.

4. Once you've logged in, your browser might ask you to return to the desktop app. If not, open it manually.

5. Now, you can simply drag and drop your bulk of photos into the desktop app.

6. Just below the images, and before removing the backgrounds, you can select whether you want to add a transparent or colored background to all your photos. We went ahead and selected the classic white, which is standard across many e-commerce stores.

7. You can also make use of our preset background templates by going to > Design Templates and selecting whatever one takes your liking. You can see what the design will look like by going to > Try this design template. Once you're happy with your selection, go ahead and hit > Start. 

These allow you to add the same preset background in just a few clicks to all of your photos; background templates include:

• Product photo optimizer template: great for anyone who needs to edit photos for e-commerce in no time.
