Features

🌆 Ultimate Image Upscaler

Ultimate Image Upscaler is a next-generation AI-powered upscaler and enhancer that reconstructs stunning detail, texture, and clarity — turning any low-resolution photo into a high-definition masterpiece.

With our creativity control, you can decide how far the model should “reimagine” the image: from subtle restoration to bold, high-fidelity enhancement. Whether for portraits, landscapes, or digital art, every pixel shines with cinematic precision.

If you’re looking for a more affordable option, check out the Standard Image Upscaler.


✨ Why it looks incredible

  • AI detail reconstruction: restores missing features like hair strands, fabric texture, and fine lighting gradients.
  • Smart edge recovery: sharpens outlines and removes blur while preserving realism.
  • Dynamic creativity scaling: adjust the “creativity” slider to balance accuracy vs. artistic reimagination.
  • Noise & artifact cleanup: removes compression noise, color banding, and digital grain.
  • Cinematic color grading: enhances tonal contrast and depth for a naturally vivid finish.

⚙️ Limits and Performance

  • Input formats: JPEG, PNG, WEBP
  • Output formats: JPEG, PNG, WEBP

💰 Pricing

Upscale only for $0.05!!!


🚀 How to Use

  1. 📤 Upload your image (JPG/PNG/WEBP).
  2. 🎛️ Choose your upscale ratio (2×, 4×, or 8×).
  3. 🎨 Adjust creativity for detail vs. realism.
  4. ▶️ Click Run to generate the enhanced image.

💡 Pro Tips

  • For photo restoration, keep creativity low (0.5–1.0) to preserve realism.
  • For artistic reimagination, try creativity 2.0+ — it can recreate missing details in new styles.
  • Use higher-resolution outputs for prints, posters, or cinematic use.

📝 Notes

Processing speed may vary with image size and queue load. Ultimate Image Upscaler is built on WaveSpeedAI’s high-fidelity enhancement engine — optimized for sharpness, color accuracy, and creative reconstruction.

Request Parameters

ParameterTypeRequiredDefaultRangeDescription
imagestringYes-The URL of the image to generate an image from.
creativitynumberNo--2 ~ 2Controls how strongly the upscaler will try to improve the image quality.
target_resolutionstringNo4k2k, 4k, 8kThe target resolution of the generated media.
output_formatstringNojpegjpeg, png, webpThe format of the output image.
enable_base64_outputbooleanNofalse-If enabled, the output will be encoded into a BASE64 string instead of a URL. This property is only available through the API.
