The pay-as-you-go model is amazing. I didn't want to pay a monthly subscription just for a magic eraser, now I just pay for what I generate.

Batch editing is a lifesaver. I drop 50 product photos into the browser and it removes the backgrounds in seconds. No mobile app can do this.

I used to use PicsArt just to upscale my old blog photos, but it compressed them too much. Kenerate exports in true 4K resolution.

The magic eraser doesn't just smudge the pixels like cheap apps do. It actually uses diffusion to reconstruct the missing background.
