Frequently asked questions
- What technology does it use?
- LaMa (Large Mask Inpainting), an open-source AI model specialized in filling large areas of an image consistently with their surroundings, in the optimized OpenCV version that runs in your browser with ONNX Runtime.
- Why is it slow the first time?
- The model weighs 92 MB and is downloaded once. After that it is cached by your browser and each erase takes 10–40 seconds depending on your device.
- What results can I expect?
- Great results on natural and repetitive backgrounds: people on a beach, tourists in front of a monument, cables against the sky, spots or marks on a wall. Very large objects over complex backgrounds may look blurry: erase in several passes.
- Does the photo lose resolution?
- No. The AI only works on a crop around what you painted and the result is blended back with a soft edge. The rest of the image is untouched. Photos larger than 2,400 px on their longest side are reduced to that size.
- Are my files uploaded to a server?
- No. Everything is processed inside your browser and your files never leave your device. There is no upload, no queue and no temporary storage, so the tool keeps working even if you go offline after the page has loaded.
- Is it really free?
- Yes. There is no sign-up, no watermark and no daily limit. The site is funded by a few unobtrusive ads around the tools, never inside your files.
