bgready – AI Background Remover for WooCommerce is an AI cutout tool for product photography — it removes backgrounds from WooCommerce product images so you can publish clean cutouts, white or branded backdrops, and marketplace-ready canvases. It is not an image compression or “optimization” plugin: it does not resize/compress your media library to save disk space; it creates new cutout renders via bgready Studio AI.

Bulk and automatic background removal when you save a product (featured / gallery images)
White, transparent, or custom backgrounds plus marketplace-ready canvas (padding and output size)
Soft shadows and optional watermarks on the rendered result
Per-product overrides in the product meta box (Process / Reprocess / Restore); originals are always kept
Signed job webhooks deliver results without waiting for WP-Cron (polling is only a fallback)
WooCommerce Settings bgready: API key, defaults, live sample preview, catalogue reprocess
Bulk action on Products and Media Library; new attachments named <original>-nobg.png|jpg|webp
Respects API rate limits (429 Retry-After) and pauses on insufficient credits (402)

Requires a free or paid bgready account at bgready.com.

A signed webhook URL for this site is registered so results can be delivered.
