Frequently asked questions
Is my image uploaded?
No. The image is read and processed in your browser. The model files are downloaded from Hugging Face on the first run and may be cached by your browser.
Why does the first run take longer?
The browser needs to download and initialize the AI model. Later runs can reuse the cached model, while speed still depends on your device and browser.
