About

Studio-grade background removal, native to your editor.

CutLayer extracts a clean alpha matte from your footage or stills — including hair, edges and motion — without leaving Premiere Pro or After Effects. No green screen, no rotoscoping, no exporting to a browser tool.

How it works

From source clip to clean alpha in three steps.

  1. 01

    Open the CutLayer panel

    Run CutLayer inside After Effects or Premiere Pro.

  2. 02

    Select the subject

    Pick the clip or still. CutLayer detects the subject automatically — people, objects, even hair detail.

  3. 03

    Get a clean matte

    An alpha-channel layer drops onto your timeline, ready to composite, color or animate.

Speed

Skip rotoscoping. Stay in your timeline.

No more frame-by-frame roto

Hours of rotoscoping become a one-click matte.

No browser tools

Your footage never leaves your editor. No upload, no download, no re-import.

Hair and edge detail

AI edge refinement preserves the details traditional keying loses.

Stills and motion

Works on single frames and on moving footage.
