| Measured fixture results | Not verified | Not verified |
| Fixture findings | Supports marking multiple areas; reconstruction looked natural, but free output was 720px and the page had ads. | Allows full-size guest export; large solid signs were not fully removed in this run and needed repeated adjustment. |
| Original historical observation | 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. | Aiseesoft Free Watermark Remover Online delivers outstanding commercial honesty (exporting full 2048×2048 unwatermarked images without login, unmasked_psnr_db = 30.74 dB), though its classical pixel-diffusion algorithm is tailored for thin text watermarks rather than large solid object reconstruction. |
| Suitable uses · historical assessment | Quick social media or small web graphics where 720px unwatermarked output without login is sufficient | Users needing a no-login, zero-watermark, full-resolution (2048px) tool to erase semi-transparent text watermarks or small date stamps |
| Result & output evidence | No native output obtained; the preview does not establish final export quality. | |
