What you can upscale

Prep photos for print

A 1080p iPhone shot is only ~3.5"×5" at 300 DPI. 4× gets you to poster-size.

Push to 4K / Retina

Old 720p / 1080p content made sharp for 4K monitors and Retina displays.

Scale up AI art

Blow SDXL / FLUX outputs up from 1024px to 4K without losing coherence.

Rescue tiny thumbnails

Old avatars, ebay thumbnails, and forum attachments pushed to usable sizes.

Product photos

Amazon wants 1600px+ for zoom. Upscale low-res manufacturer photos in one click.

Scanned documents

Old photocopies and faxed docs brought up to OCR-readable resolution.

How to upscale 2× or 4×

Upload your image

JPG, PNG, or WebP up to 10MB. We read the dimensions automatically and show the projected output size.

AI Image Upscaler — FAQ

True 2× or 4× resolution upscale. We rebuild every pixel — the output genuinely has more detail than a simple resize. Ideal for print, Retina displays, and pushing AI art beyond 1024px.

Upscaler changes resolution (input × 2 or × 4). Enhance (at /image/enhance/) keeps the same resolution and just improves quality. Pick Upscaler when you need a bigger file.

Standard (Real-ESRGAN, free-pool), Topaz Image Upscale (rebuilds every pixel — best for print), Ideogram Upscale (creative detail), plus ESRGAN, AuraSR, Clarity, and CCSR.

Per-image flat regardless of scale — Standard ~1,000 tokens, Topaz ~90,000. Scale affects the output size, not the cost.

Yes. We read the input dimensions the moment you upload and show the exact output resolution (input W × scale, input H × scale) before you click upscale.

Standard runs in ~5 seconds. Topaz 4× on a large image (3000px+) can take 25–45 seconds — we show the heavy-task banner and let you close the tab; the result lands in your dashboard.

Up to 10MB input. Very large inputs at 4× produce very large outputs — plan for a 15–30MB PNG at 4× from a 2048px source.

Yes — one of the most popular use cases. SDXL outputs at 1024px upscale cleanly to 4K with Topaz or Ideogram.

Gigapixel is a $99 desktop app limited to Topaz models. Our upscaler includes Topaz as one option plus 6 alternatives, and has a free-pool tier.

No. Standard upscale (Real-ESRGAN) is free within the daily pool.

Yes — /batch/ runs the same settings across many images.

Yes. POST multipart to /v1/image/upscale/ with `image`, `model`, and `scale` (2 or 4). GET /v1/image/upscale-quote/ returns the exact token cost and projected output dimensions for a given image.
