Removes the background from an image automatically in one second.
Best for: Product images for the webshop.
Swedish cloud-based e-commerce platform with Klarna, Swish and Swedish shipping carriers built in from the start. Prices from SEK 199/month. Works best for smaller stores; really large assortments and advanced B2B are outgrown.
Best for: The solo entrepreneur and the smaller store that wants to get started quickly with Swedish payment and shipping without coding.
Swedish AI platform (Stockholm, EQT-backed) for e-commerce merchandising, search and product recommendations with public prices. The catch: pricing is in USD, the company uses subcontractors outside the EU/EEA and the data storage region is not clearly documented.
Best for: Fashion, beauty and lifestyle online stores that want to automate sorting, search and recommendations
One of Sweden's most proven e-commerce platforms (formerly Textalk Webshop) with a flat price and no transaction fees. The interface feels more dated than newer competitors, however.
Best for: Established Swedish small businesses that want a predictable monthly cost without per-sale fees and personal support.
German e-commerce platform; the MIT-licensed Community Edition is free and can be hosted in Germany or the EU. Powerful and scalable, but overkill for a one-person startup and the paid business tiers quickly become expensive.
Best for: Growing stores and B2B companies that want to scale on an EU platform with data in Germany and full control over the code.
French e-commerce platform, open source with around 250,000 stores worldwide and a leading position in Europe. The core software is free but requires own hosting and technical skill; the hosted variant from EUR 24/month makes it easier.
Best for: Stores that want an EU-based platform with full control over data and code, and that can handle some technology or buy the hosted version.
Check that you can export your data (the EU Data Act now gives you the right to switch cloud services with a maximum 2-month notice), set up the new tool in parallel and move gradually.
Remember: the Data Act gives you a legal right to get your data out and switch cloud services, with a maximum 2-month notice period.
remove.bg is controlled from a country outside the EU. For non-sensitive use this is rarely a problem, but for customer data, personal data or the public sector a Swedish or European vendor means simpler GDPR work and no CLOUD Act exposure through ownership.
