| Fixture findings | Client-side 28.5s fine-hair matting with 99.9% recall, 0.8% residue, and unwatermarked full-res PNG export. | Brush refinement was available without login; the recorded 531px canvas limited fine-hair sharpness. |
| Original historical observation | BIRME in-browser AI matting ran locally in 28.5s, accurately separating subject from bookshelf and exporting a 5.78 MB transparent PNG. | Vheer Background Remover achieves 98.78% foreground recall and low 0.43% background leak with convenient Remove/Keep brush tools, though fine hair strand sharpness is softened by the 531×531 interactive canvas resolution compared to sister site BgEraser's native 2048×2048 export. |
