Ecommerce & Products vs Super Complex Subject
Which you need, what each costs, and when a project wants both — ecommerce & products compared with super complex subject.
Last revised
Both sit under Background Remove, and clients regularly ask which of the two they actually want. The short answer is below; the rest of this page is how to tell, what each costs, and the cases where a project needs both.
What each one is
- Ecommerce & Products Background removal for online store catalogs, consistent across every product so collection pages look uniform.
- Super Complex Subject Background removal for the hardest subjects, such as trees, lace, bicycles and wire, where edges and holes number in the hundreds.

How to decide
Go with Ecommerce & Products when
- The job is specifically apparels, which sits under this one
- The job is specifically cars/automotives, which sits under this one
- The job is specifically foods & beverages, which sits under this one
Go with Super Complex Subject when
- The difference here is one of emphasis rather than deliverables — super complex subject
When a project wants both
Worth knowing: More often than the question implies — the same job frequently touches both, and one team covers them, so moving between them is a conversation rather than a second supplier. If you are not sure which your files need, that is what the free trial is for. The process is the same either way: whichever you pick, the work runs through the same stages and is checked against the same bar. Background Remove sets that out.
Questions we get on this specific choice
Is one of them cheaper?
They start at the same rate, so the choice is about what the job needs rather than about budget. Complexity moves both.
Which is faster?
Much the same, and volume moves the number far more than the choice between these two does.
Can you tell me which one my files need?
Yes, free. Send two or three real files — that judgment is part of the trial rather than something quoted separately.
Can I switch after we start?
Yes. If the files say the other one is the right answer, we re-quote before doing the work rather than after.
