PicWish
Multi-capability online workspace by Wangxu Technology Co., Ltd. (PicWish / Apowersoft) (6 benchmarked capabilities: Image generation, Object removal, Background removal, Image upscaling, Image compression, Photo restoration)
Product node overview & trust baseline
Operator provenance, privacy baseline and site-wide pricing belong directly to the product node and are inherited across linked task edgesPicWish, operated by Wangxu Technology Co., Ltd. (PicWish / Apowersoft) (Hong Kong / Shenzhen, China) under a "Subscription + credits" model, has 6 published task assessments on RealTest (Image generation 85/100, Object removal 84/100, Background removal 83/100, Image upscaling 82/100, Image compression 73/100, Photo restoration 56/100). In image generation, free login grants 3 daily free generations (0/image) with native 2048×2048 watermark-free JPEG export and accurate sign text and object counts, though it redirects to a chat workspace and defaults to 3 concurrent models that use all 3 daily slots at once. In object removal, with a signed-in free account (even at 0 credits), Manual Removal with Generative Fill off finishes in ~2.2s and exports a native 2048×2048 watermark-free PNG with near-lossless unmasked quality, though large occluded areas receive smooth blurred fills.

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.

Detailed facts & historical record
- Measured fixture results
Global PSNR: 21.9 dB · SSIM: 0.8106 · Scratch repair PSNR: 4.48 dB
- Fixture findings
Standard 2× mode sharpens edges (0.4879 edge correlation, 21.81 dB face PSNR), while the dedicated Restoration scratch-repair mode is Pro-gated (4.48 dB scratch PSNR).
- Original historical observation
PicWish's default `Standard` mode upscales the portrait to 2048×2048 in 5.12s with stronger edge contrast (edge_corr = 0.4879, hf_ratio = 0.5733, global PSNR = 21.90 dB), but because the dedicated `Restoration` mode is gated behind Pro credits, the 5 white creases are sharpened rather than inpainted (scratch_psnr = 4.48 dB) (result.png, download.png).
- Suitable uses · historical assessment
Its default `Standard` mode 2× sharpens 1024×1024 portraits to 2048×2048 in 5.12s (0.4879 edge correlation, 21.90 dB global PSNR) without healing creases (4.48 dB scratch PSNR), while the dedicated `Restoration` scratch-repair mode in the right sidebar requires Pro credits.
