Introducing Clarity AI Crystal Upscaler on WaveSpeedAI

Crystal Upscaler Is Now Available on WaveSpeedAI

The quest for higher resolution images just got significantly easier. We’re excited to announce that Clarity AI Crystal Upscaler is now available on WaveSpeedAI, bringing professional-grade image upscaling to creators, photographers, and businesses who demand the highest quality results without the complexity.

Whether you’re preparing images for large-format prints, restoring cherished photographs, or optimizing product shots for e-commerce, Crystal Upscaler delivers ultra-sharp, high-resolution results while preserving the details that matter most.

What is Crystal Upscaler?

Crystal Upscaler is an advanced AI-powered super-resolution model developed by Clarity AI that transforms low-resolution photos into stunning high-resolution images. Unlike traditional upscaling methods that simply stretch pixels and create blurry, artifact-ridden results, Crystal Upscaler uses sophisticated deep learning technology to intelligently reconstruct missing details.

What sets Crystal Upscaler apart is its specialized architecture that prioritizes what matters most in professional imagery: textures, edges, skin tones, text legibility, and fine details. The model has been trained to excel across diverse image types, from portraits and product photography to landscapes and UI overlays.

The Crystal mode is specifically designed to bring blurry or low-resolution images to life in a highly realistic manner, making it ideal for restoring old photos, enhancing textures, and refining intricate details in nature and portrait photography.

Key Features

Exceptional Detail Recovery: Crystal Upscaler employs advanced anti-haloing technology and high-fidelity processing to recover details that other upscalers miss, delivering results that look naturally sharp rather than artificially enhanced
Versatile Image Support: Robust performance across all image types including portraits, product photography, landscapes, architectural shots, and images with text or UI elements
Facial Detail Preservation: The architecture prioritizes skin texture, eye clarity, and facial feature sharpness—critical for portrait and headshot work where likeness accuracy is paramount
Predictable Output Sizing: Control your output with a simple target megapixels parameter, making it easy to hit exact specifications for web, print, or billboard deliverables
Aspect Ratio Preservation: Crystal Upscaler scales without cropping, maintaining your original composition while boosting resolution
Clean Text Handling: Unlike many upscalers that struggle with text and graphics, Crystal Upscaler maintains legibility for images containing typography, logos, and UI elements

Real-World Use Cases

Professional Photography Enhancement

Transform smartphone photos into print-worthy images or breathe new life into older digital photographs. Crystal Upscaler is particularly effective for portrait photographers who need to deliver large prints while maintaining natural skin texture and facial details.

E-Commerce and Product Photography

Create zoom-ready product images that maintain clarity at any magnification level. Online retailers can upscale existing product catalogs for higher-resolution displays without costly reshoots, ensuring every texture and detail is visible to potential customers.

Print and Marketing Materials

Scale images confidently for magazine spreads, retail signage, and large-format posters. The predictable megapixel targeting makes it easy to hit the 300+ DPI requirements for professional print work.

Photo Restoration and Archival

Rescue treasured family photos, historical images, or legacy digital assets. Crystal Upscaler excels at reconstructing details in older or degraded source material while avoiding the artificial look that plagues other enhancement tools.

Design and Creative Work

Designers can upscale reference images, mockups, and comp assets to client-ready resolution. The model handles mixed content well, preserving both photographic elements and graphic overlays.

Quick Sizing Guide

Crystal Upscaler uses a straightforward megapixel-based approach to output sizing:

Web and Social Media: 6–12 MP
Magazine and Full-Page Print: 16–25 MP
Large Posters and Retail Signage: 25–50 MP
Hero Billboards and Creative Retouch: 50–100 MP
