| Interaction restraint | 25.5 / 30 | Clean ad-free workspace; the downloads page only shows gentle backlink-sharing and Trustpilot review cards. | Evidence A → |
| Background & reputation | 16.5 / 20 | Operated by the XConvert team since 2018 on AWS EC2 edge clusters. | Evidence A → |
| Engineering & privacy | 13 / 15 | Provides one-click Delete All / Clear All buttons on the `/downloads` queue page so users can immediately purge processed files from edge servers. | Evidence A → |

| Deliverable specifications | 20 / 20 | 100% preserves 2048×2048 pixel dimensions and native PNG format without watermarks or login (20.0/20) | Evidence A → |
| Processing speed | 11.5 / 15 | Edge server explicitly logs 'Completed: Took 7 seconds', delivering steady cloud performance (11.5/15) | Evidence A → |
