The backstory
Pixelcut removes backgrounds, generates product scenes and builds simple marketing images for small sellers. Every one of those steps is now a plain-language request inside a general assistant that also handles the listing text and variations. The app has no catalogue integration or team workflow to anchor it. A tidy utility, made redundant by an assistant that does the whole task instead of one step of it.
