| 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. | One operation removed all three signs; free export was 1280px with a watermark. |
| 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. | SnapEdit lets you paint all 3 signs at once (02_workspace.png) and click Remove for 1 guest coin, erasing all text in 5.50s (03_download.png); free export is capped at 1280×1280 with a subtle corner watermark while Super Erase and 2048px Original require PRO. |
| Suitable uses · historical assessment | Quick social media or small web graphics where 720px unwatermarked output without login is sufficient | Users who like Auto Detect object/person selection or batching multiple small blemishes into a single click |
