I built a simple tool because I was tired of clunky background removers

I do a lot of design work, and one thing that always annoyed me was how unreliable background remover tools can be. Some are too slow. Others mess up the edges. And most of the free ones slap on watermarks or force you to sign up just to download. So I decided to build my own. I kept it clean, fast, and focused only on what matters: removing backgrounds accurately, especially around the edges. No login, no watermark, just drop an image and go. It’s not fancy — just something I actually wanted for myself. If you want to try it out, here’s the link: https://edge-aware-ai-cut.lovable.app/ Would love to know what you think or how it could be better.
