Remove Your Ex vs ExEraser vs removepeople.ai

ExEraser, removepeople.ai and Remove Your Ex all remove a person from a photo with AI, and all three are paid. They differ in how you pick the person, whether you can see a result before paying, what you pay, and what happens to your photos. Everything below about ExEraser and removepeople.ai comes from their own sites, checked on October 17, 2026. Prices change, so check before you buy. And if the person is a stranger in the background, try the free eraser on your phone first.

ExEraser: see it before you pay

ExEraser's biggest advantage is the free watermarked preview: you upload, choose a detected face, and see the result before buying. It doesn't need an account to start, and the per-photo price drops for 5 or more photos. Picking from detected faces works well when the person's face is visible. Its site says you can re-run an individual result for difficult photos.

removepeople.ai: higher resolution and subscriptions

removepeople.ai works by description, like Remove Your Ex, and one edit can remove several people. Its paid plans go up to 4K output, so it's the one to look at if you want to print large or edit photos for work. You can try prepared sample photos for free, but your own photos need a paid credit. It sells a one-time pack of 3 edits as well as monthly plans.

Remove Your Ex: built for exes and whole albums

Remove Your Ex does one thing: it removes the person you describe, like "the man in the grey hoodie on the left", and one description covers a batch of up to 10 photos. It takes HEIC, so iPhone photos upload as they are. There's no subscription, and credits never expire.

There's no free preview. Instead, every photo includes a free second edit, failed edits return the credit automatically, and if the person is still there in a paid edit you can report it and get the credit back, up to 3 times every 30 days. Edits come back at 1K resolution, which suits phones and social posts more than large prints. Arms around shoulders and heads touching are hard for every tool, this one included.
