• Clean enhancement workflow Improve image clarity for photos, scans, product images, and other visual assets.

• Flexible output format Export the upscaled image in a supported format such as png.

Parameters

How to Use

1. Upload your image — provide the source image you want to enhance.
2. Choose the target — select the upscale target that best matches your quality needs.
3. Choose output format (optional) — select the format that best fits your workflow.
4. Submit — run the model and download the upscaled image.

Example Use Case

Upscale an old street photograph to produce a cleaner, sharper version for archival, presentation, or creative reuse.

Pricing

Pricing is based on the selected target tier.

Billing Rules

• Requests with target <= 4 cost $0.005 per image
• Requests with target > 4 and <= 8 cost $0.010 per image
• Requests with target > 8 and <= 16 cost $0.020 per image
• Requests with target > 16 and <= 32 cost $0.040 per image
• Requests with target > 32 and <= 64 cost $0.060 per image
• Requests with target > 64 and <= 128 cost $0.120 per image
• Pricing depends on the selected target
• output_format does not affect pricing

Best Use Cases

• Old photo enhancement — Improve the clarity of scanned or low-resolution photographs.
• Design asset preparation — Create sharper source images for layouts, presentations, and creative projects.
• Product image improvement — Upscale commercial visuals for catalogs, ads, and marketplace listings.
• Archival restoration workflows — Produce cleaner and larger outputs from legacy image assets.
• General low-resolution cleanup — Improve images that need a simple boost in size and quality.

Pro Tips

• Start with a lower target setting first if you want a faster and cheaper test run.
• Use a clean source image whenever possible for better enhancement results.
• Choose a higher target only when you actually need the larger or stronger upscale output.
• png is a good choice when you want to preserve output quality.

Notes

• image is the only required field.
• target now supports values up to 128.
• Pricing depends on the selected target tier.
• output_format changes the file type, but not the price.
• Higher target values may be more suitable for print, detailed review, or premium delivery workflows.
