Tips for a better result
Start with the clearest source available, keep the main subject easy to identify, and choose settings that match the intended final size. Review the first output at full size before generating another variation, especially when the original contains small text, fine product edges, faces, or compressed detail.
Private processing
Tool outputs stay private. Only upload images you own or have permission to process.
Frequently asked questions
Should I choose 2× or 4×?
Use 2× for a moderate enlargement and 4× when you need substantially larger dimensions. Four-times processing can expose artifacts in very small or damaged sources.
When should I enable face enhancement?
Enable it for photos with visible faces that need extra detail. Leave it off when identity preservation is more important or the image contains no face.
Will upscaling recover every missing detail?
No. AI can improve perceived detail, but it cannot guarantee accurate recovery of information that is absent from the source. Check text, logos, and faces closely.
