Powered by GPT Image 2.5, it achieved perfect scores across text rendering ("REALTEST 2026"), color/quantity binding (3 apples, 2 blue mugs), and 5-finger robot hand anatomy (65/65). New accounts receive 10 trial credits, and 5 credits were used to generate and export a native 1024x1024 unwatermarked PNG. With transparent credit deduction and an ~15s generation latency, it represents a highly reliable tool for icon and graphic design.

The recheck preserves a conflict: official purchase cards list 5 free HD downloads/month without a watermark, while the feature FAQ says free users cannot save or download HD. Free HD availability is therefore not guaranteed. AI credits cover AI backgrounds/generation, not established removal counts. Purchase cards state a 30-day money-back guarantee, subject to refund eligibility terms. Verification has gaps; unknown prices and quotas are not inferred.
