Features

Topaz Image Denoise

Topaz Image Denoise is a professional-grade noise reduction model powered by Topaz Labs’ AI technology. Upload your image and select from multiple denoise strengths — AI intelligently removes noise while preserving detail and texture.


Why Choose This?

  • AI-powered noise reduction Intelligently removes noise while preserving important image details and textures.

  • Multiple strength levels Choose from Normal, Strong, or Extreme based on your noise level and quality needs.

  • Detail preservation Unlike traditional denoise tools, AI preserves edges, textures, and fine details.

  • Professional quality Powered by Topaz Labs’ AI, trusted by professional photographers worldwide.


Parameters

ParameterRequiredDescription
imageYesSource image to denoise (upload or URL)
modelNoDenoise strength to use (default: Normal)
output_formatNoOutput format: jpeg, jpg, or png

Model Options

ModelDescription
NormalBalanced noise reduction for typical images (default)
StrongMore aggressive denoise for noisier images
ExtremeMaximum noise reduction for very noisy images

Output Format Options

  • jpeg / jpg — Compressed format, smaller file size
  • png — Lossless format, supports transparency

How to Use

  1. Upload your image — drag and drop or paste a URL.
  2. Select model — choose denoise strength based on noise level.
  3. Choose output format — select based on your quality and file size needs.
  4. Run — submit and download the denoised image.

Best Use Cases

  • High ISO Photos — Clean up grainy images shot at high ISO settings.
  • Low Light Photography — Remove noise from night and indoor photos.
  • Video Stills — Clean up frames extracted from video footage.
  • Scanned Photos — Reduce grain and noise from scanned film images.
  • Smartphone Photos — Improve quality of noisy mobile phone images.

Pro Tips

  • Start with Normal for most images — only use Strong or Extreme if needed.
  • Over-denoising can make images look plastic — find the right balance.
  • Works best when combined with sharpening after denoise.
  • For archival quality, export as PNG to avoid additional compression artifacts.

Notes

  • Higher strength settings remove more noise but may reduce fine detail.
  • Best results come from images with uniform noise patterns.
  • For images with both noise and blur, denoise first, then sharpen.
