Blocking banners when rendering screenshots is really hard.

ScreenshotOne API does it for you automatically by using different sophisticated techniques. But in case, if nothing works, what to do?

Ask AI!

I already built a simple tool that allows me to do that. Now, in case if a customer reaches to support with a problem that some banner is not blocked, I can quickly use the tool to fix the issue.

And response time will be shortened from hours to minutes.

Will be it part of the API itself? It is early to tell now. But I can see it definitely will be useful for some customers.
