How it works
How to upscale an image with AI
- 01
Upload an image
Drop, paste or choose a JPG, PNG or WebP up to 10 MB. Small web images, older digital photos and screenshots all work.
- 02
Upscale it
Press Generate. The AI enlarges the image and sharpens edges and textures as it goes.
- 03
Compare and download
Drag the slider to see the difference in detail, then download the larger image.
Why use an AI image upscaler
Ordinary resizing stretches pixels. AI upscaling predicts the detail that is missing.
01
More pixels, real detail
Instead of blurring as it enlarges, the model reconstructs edges and textures that fit the image.
02
Cleans up softness
Mild blur and compression artifacts are reduced, which makes faces, products and text easier to read.
03
One click, nothing to tune
There are no scale factors or sliders to fiddle with. Upload, press Generate and download.
04
One of our cheapest tools
Upscaling costs very few credits per image, and the exact cost is shown on the button before you start.
05
A good first step
Upscale first, then remove the background or restore the photo: the other AI tools work better with more pixels.
06
Refunds on failure
If a run fails, the credits go back to your balance automatically.
When to upscale an image
Product photos
Give marketplace and shop images the resolution that zoom views and large screens need.
Restored family photos
Upscale a restored portrait for framing, or for sharing at full-screen size.
FAQ
Image upscaler FAQ
Upload it to the AI image upscaler above and press Generate. The model enlarges the image while rebuilding detail, so it stays sharp instead of turning blurry like a normal resize.
The upscaler chooses the enlargement automatically, so there is nothing to set. Check the pixel size of the downloaded file to see exactly how large your result is.
It reduces mild blur and compression artifacts well. Heavy motion blur or an out-of-focus subject can't be fully recovered; for old prints, try Photo Restoration first.
Photos, product shots, illustrations and screenshots with a clear subject. Very tiny images of a few dozen pixels contain too little information for a faithful result.
Upscaling uses credits because it runs on an AI model in the cloud, but it is one of our cheapest tools. The cost is shown before you start, and failed runs are refunded.
