Nice! Not to be all jaded, but there’s one of these services launching per month (week?) these days.
Some are free (but then usually poor quality), others cost money (usually with some resolution limited freebie or credits-on-signup).
I run https://clippingmagic.com https://clippingmagic.com, which launched here on hn eight years ago now - time flies [1].
We were #1 until the recent surge in DL-based solutions. It’s more fun to be the disruptor, but getting disrupted sure brought some renewed focus - competition works ;)
Just updated our DL model - old dogs take a while, but we finally did get a fully automatic solution including hair, which means we’re the only option with both good full auto and an editor (on desktop, didn't try this one's mobile app - I guess they have some editing options there?)

- vvoyer 5y agoHey Jacob! I am discovering all theses tools myself (I joined PhotoRoom 5 weeks ago and created the web tool of this post). We're indeed mobile first but plan to go on the web more aggressively in the coming weeks. Our mobile app has a lot of editing features, effects, touch retouch/inpaiting and interactive segmentation (subject selection, scribbles) just like Clipping Magic. I also love competition even if we try not to look to much at it and just roll with our user feedback and requests. PS: I've used Vector Magic in the past, amazing tool :) Also used https://www.pngtosvg.com/ https://www.pngtosvg.com/ which works really well besides the very hacky-look webpage.
