Frequently asked questions
- How does AI object removal work?
- You paint a mask over the object you want to remove. The LaMa inpainting model then analyzes the surrounding area and generates realistic fill content that matches the texture, color, and pattern of the background.
- Can I remove text or watermarks from images?
- You can remove text overlays and watermarks from your own images. The AI fills in the area behind the text. Results depend on the complexity of the background underneath.
- What size objects can be removed?
- Small to medium objects work best (people, signs, wires, trash). Very large objects (covering more than 30-40% of the image) leave less context for the AI to work with, and results may be less convincing.
