How to unlock your phone if you forgot the password or pattern?

The Pixel being locked after too many attempts is only part of the problem. The harder part is that neither the PIN nor the pattern is known anymore. Smart Screen Unlocker Recovery can be relevant to How to unlock your phone if you forgot the password or pattern, but it does not discover a forgotten credential.

Where it actually helps

1. USB debugging needs to have been enabled before the phone was locked.
2. The Pixel also needs to recognize the computer as an authorized ADB device.

With those conditions in place, the tool can interact with the lock screen and enter a credential you already know. This is especially useful when a damaged display or touchscreen prevents normal input.

In this case

• Credential+Both the PIN and pattern are unknown, so there is nothing for the tool to enter.
• Data+Check Google Photos, Contacts, Drive, and any other services you previously used for backups.
• Reset+A factory reset can restore access to the phone, but local files that were never backed up will be lost.

I would focus on confirming what is already backed up before resetting the Pixel. That gives you a clearer picture of what can be restored afterward.
