Thanks - glad you like it!


Hi Palmik, thanks so much for the in-depth feedback, that's super helpful, I appreciate it!


That's a great idea, thank you


Thanks a lot for your comments and feedback - some great great advice and ideas in here!

This is the MVP release of Unscreen Pro, so there's many more things to come in the future, from quality improvements, to an API, integrations, editing tools and more. Appreciate all the inputs :)


It's a hint for outdated browsers, it's not an ad and there's nothing malicious behind it (unless there's an issue in your local network or machine perhaps?).

http://browser-update.org/ https://www.npmjs.com/package/browser-update

It's a fine line though to not get into the way with things like this, and we could certainly improve it's appearance a bit - sorry for that.


I think trying to emulate a built in browser notification is the wrong way to go. I wouldn't have got as concerned if the popup looked more like a web page overlay, with wording along the lines of:

"Hi we're from Browser-update.org (clickable), and this site has asked us to check your browser version. Your browser version is out of date, and should be upgraded. Please go to your [settings] menu to update, or visit [us] for more information."

Of course, feel free to totally ignore my suggestions - it's a free world. ;)


We've built Unscreen on top of the tech of remove.bg, at least partly, and the #1 design goal for both products is a high result quality. We've summarized a few of the improvements recently here, if you're curious: https://www.remove.bg/b/introducing-remove-bg-x2


Some scenes, foregrounds, backgrounds, lighting conditions, movements, etc work better than others - there's a lot of potential for errors in videos and the videos from the examples page are straight from Unscreen Pro. We're continuously working on improving the AI though (NB: We don't use video uploads for that - see unscreen.com/privacy)


Thanks! Yes, professional 360° product shots are way too hard to produce right now and we're aiming make them much more accessible, particularly for smaller vendors


Since you mention images I assume you are referring to remove.bg, not unscreen.

We're working on an SDK that will allow for editing on external sites. You can sign up to our mailing list if you want to get notified when it's ready: https://www.remove.bg/blog#subscribe


It's a combination of deep learning and traditional computer vision algorithms. We do a lot of basic research, evaluate many different approaches, train them in dozens of variants and ultimately combine what performs best, then try to make it as easy to use as possible
