Peer product comparison across shared task edges
Matched by overlapping tested task edges; compare site-wide billing models alongside per-task benchmark scoresThe official pricing page and credit table state that guests get 5 free runs and registered Free accounts receive 10 one-time Nero Credits (Standard/Photo/Anime 2× costs 1 credit/image, 4× costs 2 credits/image, paid-only 8× costs 4 credits/image). Standard monthly is USD 21.95/month promotional (regular USD 24.99/month, 300 credits/month). The yearly promo banner displays only "7.66 USD per month" (3,000 credits/year) without printing the annual invoice total before login, so the annual total is marked unverified.

- Fixture findings
Processes locally with full-size export; smooth areas worked better than complex bookshelf texture.
- Original historical observation
Inpaint-web runs the MIGAN inpainting model locally in the browser via ONNX Runtime Web, erasing all 3 signs directly on the 2048×2048 image and exporting a full-size PNG without uploading a single byte to any server. Smooth wood surfaces restore cleanly, while complex bookshelves show lightweight client-model texture patterns.
