| 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. | Removed signs with side-by-side preview; free output was 510px and full size required credits. |
| 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. | Cutout.Pro’s Smear repair modal responds in just 2.53s per stroke, cleanly erasing all 3 signs in a side-by-side Original vs Result view; guest export is 510×510 unwatermarked while full 2048×2048 HD costs 1 credit. |
| Suitable uses · historical assessment | Quick social media or small web graphics where 720px unwatermarked output without login is sufficient | E-commerce sellers already using Cutout.Pro’s credit ecosystem for cutout and upscaling |
