Using freckles as an example of "unwanted elements" is a bit insensitive.
Unwanted?

Dude must be out of touch, all the cool kids add freckles to their pictures now.

LOL, feel free to keep the freckles. Our tool is good at deleting large area in the pictures such as passer-by, trash can, etc.
The byline says 'magically' and first image on the first page is literally removing freckles.

(I closed the page at that point)

good point. will replace the demo image. give us a second chance and see if you will change your mind:)
show me the results without signing in but make me sign in to save to my album, otherwise the photo will be deleted automatically. this balances privacy, disk storage, and user incentives/gamification all at the same time.
thanks for the great feedback. will update accordingly.
it feels like it was written in a different language and then translated to English at the last second.

using a picture of a kid in the category for 'resumes, prom and family albums, or dating apps' is strange

the 'blemishes' in the before/after don't look real, it looks artificially added, so there's no demonstration of what 'real' blemishes would look like if this thing were to remove it.

tried it out, clicked start repair, it wanted me to log in.. theres no way im ever going to use this if i have to log in first to even see what it can do

thank you! The model is based on GAN so it may generate artificial content to fill the holes. However, most of the results are consistent with the original content so that you will notice the difference. Try to remove large area and see the results. You will be impressed. We will definitely polish the UI and wording. thanks again.
move the start button outside of the photo - what if i want to touch up something behind the button?
I am considering getting rid of the "start repair" button now.
live results preview maybe?
thinking to show the results as soon as user releases the button.
