Shrinking.

Over two years, visits went from 361M in November 2024 to a high of 718M in June 2026, and stand at 564M in October 2026. Much of the year’s change is one site, Adobe Express, which is why I also look at the market without it.

Miles explains

I only call a market growing when visits and name searches agree. Here visits are down and name searches are level, so they don’t agree yet.

“ai background remover” is searched about 90,500 times a month worldwide, 16% of it in the US.

Google Trends barely registered “ai background remover” until September 2022; interest then climbed to its peak in November 2025. Americans make 16% of the searches but only 10.8% of the visits, because the big sites also draw heavily from India, Brazil and Canada.

Miles explains

Google Trends shows direction, not volume. Interest is lower than a year ago, and I only trust that when the visits move the same way.

Fewer visits than a year ago, name searches holding steady, and the next six months look flat.

The fastest growers over the year, Photiu.ai, SnapBG.ai and Slazzer, grew fastest, mostly from a smaller base. The losers, led by Pixian.AI, lost most of their search visits (-79%).

Miles explains

Huge percentages like Photiu.ai’s +316% usually mean one site won a big Google ranking from a small start. I watch whether it holds the next month.

I expect November 2026 to be about the same as October 2026, and the next six months to look flat.

The forecast carries the level of recent months forward, not the trend line, because that version missed least when tested on past months. November is usually a quieter month than average for searches, but the calendar did not improve the forecast, so it is left out.

Expected in November 2026

Read the range, not the single number: tested on the last 6 months, my method landed inside its range 5 times.

The most visited is Adobe Express, with 251 million visits a month, 45% of all visits.

Adobe Express and Canva together hold 84% of all visits. Below the top five the market is long and thin: the other 16 sites share 4.5%.

Adobe Express alone has 45% of all visits. That’s a big lead, but one Google update can close it fast.
