Make a small source more useful for a product listing, a larger layout or a closer crop. Choose the output size before processing.
AI Image Upscaler
Small image. More detail.
Turn low-resolution photos into larger, clearer images. Upscale blurry images at 2× or 4×, refine texture with Topaz presets, and adjust face enhancement before you download.

Control the finish
Balance sharpness and noise reduction. Use a preset suited to the source, and keep face enhancement optional.
Inspect the difference
Drag the comparison divider and zoom into the canvas. Check edges, texture and faces before saving your preferred result.
Upscale images with control over every detail
A higher pixel count is only part of the result. Choose how your photo is enlarged, how much texture is enhanced, and what to preserve.

Dimension example only. The available options in the tool depend on your uploaded file.
Low-resolution image to high resolution
Choose 2× or 4× to increase both the width and height of a photo. A 1280 × 960 image becomes 2560 × 1920 at 2×, or 5120 × 3840 at 4×. The AI estimates detail as it enlarges the image, giving you a larger file to inspect and use in a layout. Try the dimension example to see what each factor means.
- 1× enhancement without increasing dimensions
- 2× and 4× image enlargement
- Original composition and aspect ratio retained
Upscale and sharpen a blurry image
Small web images and repeatedly compressed photos often look soft around hair, fabric and object edges. Start with the Low res or Standard preset, then balance sharpness and denoise for your source. Moderate settings can improve clarity while keeping texture from looking too brittle. Severe defocus and motion blur may still remain visible.
- Tune sharpness and denoise independently
- Inspect detail with the before-and-after divider
- Compare at a useful zoom level before downloading
Refine portraits with optional face enhancement
Faces need a different balance from backgrounds. Enable face enhancement when a small portrait needs attention, then adjust strength and creativity to control how freely facial detail is reconstructed. Check eyes, skin and expressions against the source. Keep the setting off when preserving existing facial detail matters more than adding definition.
- Face enhancement is optional
- Separate strength and creativity controls
- Review likeness and skin texture against the original
Choose a preset for photos, graphics or text
A product photograph, an illustration and a screenshot each need a different approach. High Fidelity v2 suits detailed sources, Art & CG is intended for computer graphics, and Text Refine targets lettering and branding elements. Choose the closest starting point and inspect the result; generated detail can change small letters and fine lines.
- Standard, High Fidelity v2 and Low res for photos
- Art & CG for rendered graphics and illustrations
- Text Refine for lettering that needs closer inspection
Start with the right image preset
Five presets in the same workspace. Match the source first, then fine-tune sharpness, denoise and face enhancement.
Explore the presets, then choose one for your own file in the workspace.
Standard
The default starting point for everyday photos. Try it with 2× enlargement, then inspect whether the image needs more sharpness or less noise.
High Fidelity v2
For a source that already has useful detail. Use it when the goal is a larger image with a restrained enhancement rather than a strongly reconstructed appearance.
Low res
For small images, web graphics and screenshots. Look closely at edges and repetitive textures, which give the model less reliable information at low resolution.
Art & CG
For illustrations, CGI, logos and icons. Review outlines and flat-color boundaries after enlargement. Raster enlargement does not convert a logo into a vector file.
Text Refine
For text and branding elements. Check every important word against the original before using the output in a document, listing or printed design.
How to upscale an image online
Bring your source, choose the finish, and inspect the larger result.
01
Upload your image
Open the upscaler and choose a JPG, PNG or WEBP file. Start with the best original you have; a downloaded thumbnail contains less detail than the full-size photo.
1× · 2× · 4×
Standard · High Fidelity · Low res
02
Choose scale and enhancement
Select 1×, 2× or 4×, choose a preset and adjust sharpness or noise reduction. Turn on face enhancement if needed. Review the credit cost before starting.
03
Compare and download
Wait for processing, then compare the original and result in the canvas. Zoom into fine details, select the result you want and download it.
A clearer image for the work ahead
Use the same image upscaler for portraits, products, older photographs and larger layouts.
Portraits and social photos
Prepare a portrait for a profile, social post or editorial layout. Inspect facial detail and use a modest enhancement when natural skin texture and likeness are the priority.
Product listings and campaigns
Give small supplier photos more room in product pages and advertising layouts. Check packaging text, materials and color against the source so the image continues to represent the product accurately.
Older photos and digital archives
Enlarge a small scan or an older digital photo for viewing and sharing. Start with the best available source and compare faces and textures carefully. Enlargement and denoise can improve the appearance, while missing detail and physical damage may remain.
Graphics for web and print
Enlarge a cover, poster or campaign graphic for its next placement. The required pixel dimensions depend on the final size and print density; use the output dimensions to plan before processing.

AI image upscaler questions
What does an AI image upscaler do?
An AI image upscaler creates a higher-resolution version of an existing image. It estimates edges and textures from the available pixels, which can make an enlarged photo look clearer. Fine details can change during reconstruction, so compare the result against your source.
Can I upscale a blurry image?
Yes. Mild softness from low resolution and compression is a useful starting point. Try Low res or Standard and compare different sharpness settings. Strong motion blur, extreme defocus and missing detail may not be recoverable, even when the output contains more pixels.
How much can I enlarge a photo?
Choose 2× or 4× to multiply the width and height of your source, or 1× to enhance at its existing size. At 4×, a 1280 × 960 photo becomes 5120 × 3840. Check the output shown in the tool before processing.
Will upscaling change faces or text?
It can. AI reconstruction may alter fine features, lettering or texture. Start with conservative settings, leave face enhancement off when it is not needed, and compare the result against the original before using it.
Can I turn a low-resolution photo into a print-ready image?
You can increase its pixel dimensions, which may help with larger print layouts. Print quality also depends on the source, physical print size and required DPI. Check the target dimensions and inspect a crop or proof before committing to a large print.
Is image upscaling free?
Processing uses credits. The workspace shows the cost for the selected settings before you submit. Check your available balance and current plans to see how many images you can process.
Do I need to install an image upscaling app?
No desktop installation is required. Upload, configure and review your image through the browser, then download the completed result. You will need to sign in and have enough credits to process it.
Can I also upscale video?
Yes. The same workspace accepts video files and displays video-specific settings. Visit the AI Video Upscaler page for supported resolutions, frame rates and clip limits.
