MagiDiva: AI background removal — local, private. No subscriptions.

Hey PH! 👋 I built MagiDiva because I was frustrated with existing background removal tools: ❌ remove.bg charges per image AND uploads your photos to their cloud ❌ Adobe Express needs a $9.99/mo subscription just for basic cutout ❌ Most "free" tools watermark exports or have 720p limits So I took BirefNet (the same AI model remove.bg uses), wrapped it in a Tauri desktop app, and made it run 100% locally on your machine. No uploads. No tracking. Your photos stay on your disk. Two editions: • **Community** — free forever, AGPLv3 open source, single image cutout • **Pro** — $49 perpetual, batch + folder drop + gallery view Built in 3 weeks — Tauri v2, React 19, Rust backend, ONNX Runtime with DirectML GPU acceleration. Would love to hear what you think — happy to answer questions! 🚀
