Tested result & sample
With full manual brush coverage over all three signs, LightX removes every sign in 7.00s at 0 credit cost; however, because free export is capped at 512×512 JPEG, unmasked background detail is softened by downscaling (unmasked_psnr_db = 22.38 dB).

- Recorded environment
- US-West (California, AS2914)
- Network-observed server wait
- 7 s
- End-to-end reference
- 8.22 s
Network wait includes round trips, queuing and polling error, not pure inference time. Local timings depend on the device; repetition counts are not standardized in legacy records.
Experience, rules & trust
- Disclosure
- The download modal explicitly displays free JPEG (512 X 512 px) alongside PRO-badged PNG and high-resolution options
- Interaction
- Brush masking (adjustable Brush Size) and "Remove Object" execution run smoothly (02_full_mask.png, 03_result.png); the download dialog cleanly separates free JPEG (512×512) from PRO tiers and downloads the watermark-free 512×512 JPEG immediately upon clicking Download.

| Criterion | Score | Rationale | Basis |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pricing transparency | 24 / 35 | The landing page (01_landing.png) allows direct image upload into the AI Image Cleanup workspace, and object removal does not deduct daily AI credits (balance stays at 4, 03_result.png). The export modal (04_download_jpeg.png) clearly labels the free JPEG option as "512 X 512 px", while higher resolutions and PNG format carry a "PRO" crown badge. | Evidence A → |
| Interaction restraint | 25 / 30 | Brush masking (adjustable Brush Size) and "Remove Object" execution run smoothly (02_full_mask.png, 03_result.png); the download dialog cleanly separates free JPEG (512×512) from PRO tiers and downloads the watermark-free 512×512 JPEG immediately upon clicking Download. | Evidence A → |
