| Measured fixture results | Not verified | Not verified |
| Fixture findings | All three colored signs were 100% removed with natural bookshelf, vine, and counter reconstruction (inpaint_psnr_db = 13.17 dB), though default editing downscaled the output to 1024×1024 with subtle generative changes in unmasked details (unmasked_psnr_db = 26.75 dB, SSIM = 0.9435). | Supports marking multiple areas; reconstruction looked natural, but free output was 720px and the page had ads. |
| Original historical observation | After uploading the 2048×2048 bookstore anchor image and prompting default Retouch (Auto Creative) mode to remove all three signs, the server completed rendering in 8.49s (8.77s end-to-end) and exported a free 1024×1024 watermark-free PNG (1,995,184 bytes). All three signs were 100% removed with natural bookshelf, vine, and counter reconstruction (inpaint_psnr_db = 13.17 dB), though output dimensions were halved to 1024×1024 with subtle generative resampling in unmasked background details (unmasked_psnr_db = 26.75 dB, SSIM = 0.9435). | Hama.app lets users brush all 3 signs at once and submit a single /api/hama-inpainting job (8.78s), blending bookshelf and wood-grain backgrounds naturally; its main limitations are the 720×720 free resolution cap and third-party Google AdSense overlays. |
| Suitable uses · historical assessment | Users who want brush-free natural-language removal of multiple complex objects or signs and accept 1024×1024 output with slight generative background resampling | Quick social media or small web graphics where 720px unwatermarked output without login is sufficient |
