A remove.bg alternative for print
remove.bg is made for photos. Endorr is made for print artwork: it removes the background and also finds the semi-transparent pixels, soft shadows and glow that print as white specks on DTF.

Why a photo cut-out is not enough for DTF
DTF prints everything that is not fully transparent. A cut-out that looks clean on screen can still have a soft shadow or a fringe of half-transparent pixels, and those print as a pale halo or white specks. Endorr checks for exactly that and fixes it in the same step.
When remove.bg fits better
For product photos, portraits and people, remove.bg is a specialist, with apps and an API for large volumes. If you mainly cut out photos rather than print artwork, it may suit you better.
