Not a simple stretch: a neural network redraws the detail that was lost. Compressed old photos, screenshots, stickers and anime art stay clean at 4x. Everything runs on your own GPU, so nothing is uploaded and nothing leaves your computer.
Doing image upscaling properly takes more than one algorithm.
Classic resizing just makes each pixel bigger, so the result gets blurrier. This app uses two neural networks, Real-ESRGAN and waifu2x, trained on real-world compression artefacts, to turn JPEG blocks and soft edges back into continuous texture.
Line art and photographs need very different models. Anime mode keeps lines crisp and removes noise; photo mode rebuilds texture. Each mode offers further model choices, and the default is the right pick most of the time.
All processing happens on your local GPU and never touches a server. Private photos, unreleased artwork and company material are safe. Upscaling works offline too.
Drag several images into the window and they are processed one after another, each with visible progress and status. Results are saved with an _HD suffix, originals are untouched, and you can choose the output folder.
Built on Vulkan, so NVIDIA, AMD, integrated graphics and Apple silicon all accelerate it. Three load levels: go all out when you are in a hurry, or switch to power saving and keep working while it runs in the background.
Upscaled files are often several times larger than the original. Built-in compression steps in when the size balloons and brings it back down with near-lossless settings, with no visible difference in quality.
Upscale 5 images for free first, and pay only if you like it. A purchase includes all future updates. One licence activates one device.

Secure checkout by Paddle. Your licence key is shown right after payment and emailed to you. The app interface is currently in Chinese.
Current version 4.0.1 · automatic updates
You can upscale 5 images for free with no watermark and no quality limits, exactly like the paid version. After 5 images you need a licence to continue.
Not yet. The app interface is currently in Chinese. The workflow is simple: drag images into the window and they are upscaled. Please try the 5 free images before buying to make sure it works for you.
One licence activates one device, Mac or Windows. If you change computers, email us the address you paid with and we will release the old device so you can activate the new one.
2x, 3x and 4x are supported. AI reconstructs plausible detail; it cannot recover information that was never there. The more detail the original has, the better the result. If the source is too blurry to make out, the output will be a sharp version of that blur.
No. All processing happens on your own computer. The app only goes online to verify your licence, and no image data is ever sent. An activated copy keeps working offline.
JPG, PNG and WEBP. The output uses the same format as the input, saved with _HD added to the filename, so your original is never overwritten.
Copy the licence key shown after payment. Open the app, click the trial badge in the top right, paste the key and activate. The key is long; that is normal.
The key is emailed to you when you buy, so search your inbox first. If you still cannot find it, email us the address you paid with and we will resend it.
