| Measured fixture results | Not verified | Not verified |
| Fixture findings | Guest export retained full size and removed signs; large reconstructed areas had smooth texture. | Full manual brush coverage removes all three signs 100% without ghosting, but the 512×512 JPEG free tier downscaling noticeably softens unmasked background detail. |
| Original historical observation | ObjectRemover completely removes the central mug at full 2048×2048 resolution and fills the region with plausible wood-grain texture (masked PSNR 13.29 dB, boundary continuity 0.892) while keeping unmasked details sharp (unmasked PSNR 26.30 dB). | With full manual brush coverage over all three signs, LightX removes every sign in 7.00s at 0 credit cost; however, because free export is capped at 512×512 JPEG, unmasked background detail is softened by downscaling (unmasked_psnr_db = 22.38 dB). |
| Suitable uses · historical assessment | Users who need to erase unwanted objects, tourists, or text from high-resolution photos and export full 2048×2048 unwatermarked PNGs for free without logging in | Casual users who only need a quick 512px thumbnail or social media image with unwanted objects removed without spending AI credits |
