A collection of over 125M partial hash inversions of the SHA-256 function (suricrasia.online)

That of which is actually provided are 125M partial pre-images.

A cryptographic hash function – SHA-256 included – is not inverted, because any "good" cryptographic hash function has probably infinitely many pre-images for any given hash value, if the input space is unbounded (i.e., {0,1}*).
