Features

  • AI upscaling up to 8X

    Images can be enlarged by 1X, 2X, 4X or 8X. Input limits range from 20,000 x 20,000 px at 1X for signed-in accounts down to 2,500 x 2,500 px at 8X.

  • Bulk transformation

    Multiple images can be transformed at once inside a single console, replacing repetitive one-by-one processing for larger batches.

  • API integration

    Image enhancement APIs can be integrated directly into existing systems so upscaling runs inside an established workflow.

  • Portrait and repair tools

    Dedicated tools handle face enhancement, face restoration, retouching, deblurring, dehazing, motion blur removal and colourisation of black-and-white photos.

  • Video upscaling

    Clips up to one minute in mp4, mov or webm format can be upscaled alongside images through the same upload or URL input.

What users say

Pros

  • Fan art upscaled to 4000 x 2208 came out clean enough to use as a desktop wallpaper.

Cons

  • A paid upscale returned the photo with a wide horizontal stripe, so the delivered file was unusable.
  • When a paid job fails, replies are delayed and no refund is issued for the charged credits.
