The feature FAQ confirms watermark-free transparent PNG/blurred-background downloads with a free account; replacing with a new background allows one free download per day, while premium backgrounds require a subscription. The pricing table says Limited without quantifying daily transparent-PNG limits. General AI credits or the one-daily replacement limit are not applied to transparent cutouts.

| Measured fixture results | Not verified | Not verified |
| Fixture findings | Processes locally with full-size export; smooth areas worked better than complex bookshelf texture. | Standard erase smoothed complex texture into colour patches; guest download also required login. |
| Original historical observation | Inpaint-web runs the MIGAN inpainting model locally in the browser via ONNX Runtime Web, erasing all 3 signs directly on the 2048×2048 image and exporting a full-size PNG without uploading a single byte to any server. Smooth wood surfaces restore cleanly, while complex bookshelves show lightweight client-model texture patterns. | MyEdit's free standard removal struggles to reconstruct complex bookshelf geometry behind large signs compared to its paid "Generative AI Removal 👑" mode (Inpaint PSNR 12.53 dB), and requires login to export. |
| Suitable uses · historical assessment | Privacy-conscious users who require 100% local in-browser processing (zero cloud upload) and unlimited free 2048px+ unwatermarked exports | Users with a CyberLink account removing small blemishes or bystanders |
