What the Upscaler does

Upscaler enlarges your image and fixes common defects (softness, minor noise, low micro-detail). You can prioritize speed & price, maximum realism, or face preservation so identity never drifts. Every result can be sent on to Head & Face Swap, Variations, Image to Video, or straight to Publishing.

Modes

Basic — Fast, detailed, may change face

  • Enlarges, cleans up, and adds detail quickly.

  • Cheapest option; great for drafts, carousels, and bulk batches.

  • Face may change slightly (no face tracking).

  • 4MP and 8MP variants available.

    ​Use when: you need speed and don’t care if the face shifts a bit.

    ​Avoid if: identity must remain identical.

Basic Safe Face — Fast, detailed, face unchanged

  • Same speed class as Basic, but tracks the face and keeps it intact.

  • 4MP and 8MP variants available.

    ​Use when: you want quick upscales and must preserve identity.

    ​Avoid if: you want the very highest realism (see Premium).

Premium — High detail & realism, may change face

  • Best overall fidelity: richer skin, fabric, edges, and lighting.

  • Slower and more expensive than Basic. No face tracking, so the face can change.

4MP and 8MP variants available.

​Use when: you want the prettiest possible image, and identity isn’t critical.

​Avoid if: the face must be identical → use Premium Safe Face.

Premium Safe Face — High detail & realism, face unchanged

  • Premium quality with face preservation.

  • Slower and pricier than Basic Safe Face.

  • 4MP and 8MP variants available.

    ​Use when: you need top-tier realism and zero face drift.

Natural Clarity — Clean, natural upscale

  • Ultra-fast upscale with a clean, natural look.

  • Enhances clarity without over-sharpening or changing the face.

  • Supports Creativity Control — higher creativity adds extra detail, texture, and AI refinement.

  • Fixed 16MP output.

    ​Use when: you need a fast, natural-looking upscale with minimal changes and a clean finish.

    ​Avoid if: you need maximum fidelity or 24–32MP resolution → choose Ultra Clarity.

Ultra Clarity — Maximum fidelity & micro-detail

  • Premium upscale with the highest reconstruction fidelity.

  • Deep enhancement of textures, micro-details, lighting, and edges.

  • Supports Creativity Control — higher creativity allows the model to “imagine” finer details and enrich textures.

  • Available in 16MP, 24MP, and 32MP outputs.

    ​Use when: you want the most detailed, high-end upscale possible for professional visuals.

    ​Avoid if: you want a subtle, natural look → choose Natural Clarity.

4MP vs 8MP — which output?

4MP / 8MP (Basic & Premium models):

  • 4MP — faster, cheaper, perfect for most social feed posts and quick approval loops.

  • 8MP — slower, larger file, better for cropping, hero images, printing, or thumbnails/covers that must stay crisp.

16MP / 24MP / 32MP (Clarity models):

  • 16MP — fast, clean upscale; great for portraits, stories, UGC, and most fashion/lifestyle shots. Strong balance of speed and quality.

  • 24MP — higher micro-detail in skin, hair, and fabric; better for close-ups, crops, and zoomed-in compositions.

  • 32MP — maximum sharpness and fidelity.

Recommended choices by scenario

  • Lock the same face, publish fast: Basic Safe Face (4MP or 8MP)

  • Top quality and identity preserved: Premium Safe Face (8MP)

  • Best look when identity isn’t critical: Premium (8MP)

  • Maximum fidelity and micro-detail: Ultra Clarity (16MP / 24MP / 32MP)

  • Best results for SDXL/Flux-generated images: Basic or Premium models

  • Best results for photos with clean, natural skin texture: Natural Clarity or Ultra Clarity

Pro tips

  • Identity matters? Always choose a Safe Face mode or the combined Upscale + Head & Face Swap flow.

  • Need the fastest results? Use Basic models or Natural Clarity.

  • Want the best realism while keeping identity stable? Choose Premium Safe Face (8MP).

  • For maximum fidelity and micro-detail: select Ultra Clarity 16/24/32MP depending on your resolution needs.

  • Batch wisely: Upscale selects first; don’t upscale everything — save credits for winners.
