Which operations to choose?

Choose the right algorithm best suited for your use case


Enhance photos taken by phone, digital camera, small compressed & pixelated, for printing, photos of people, architecture, cartoons and more!


Let's Enhance algorithms work with almost all types of photos: from user generated content taken with a mobile phone, to professional content captured with digital cameras; low resolution, compressed & pixelated images are no longer a problem thanks to our advanced algorithms designed to detect and eliminate noise and artifacts, in just one click. Enhance your digital art (illustrations, anime, cartoons) by simply applying pre-defined upscale types. With our Web Platform, images with captions get more detailed information, and it's up to you if you want to edit maps, logos, posters, etc. Need to remove background? Let us do that for you too! 🤗


To do all this, we've developed different OPERATIONS where you can adjust the upscale type, output size or enhance tone and color according to your current needs, and PRESETS packed with predefined solutions that improve your images for printing with one click.


Our platform applies a noise reduction system whenever you upload images with the .jpg or .jpeg extension, as our algorithms automatically identify them.



Here's a quick guide of what choices you have when it comes to enhancing your photos!


OPERATIONS



Within this tab, you will find:


Upscale type


Gentle (Image with text)


  • Designed to enhance images with all types of text, such as labels on product packaging, posters and maps.
  • Provides smooth results
  • Increases image resolution by 2x, 4x, 8x and 16x factors


Balanced (Smart enhance)


Specializes in low-quality images (compressed, blurred, pixelated, etc.).


  • Works on low-quality photos of nature, architecture, products, real estate, and food, enhancing clarity and detail
  • Increases resolution by 1x, 2x, 4x, 8x and 16x factors


However, this neural network cannot recognize images with people. It is better to use the 'Strong' plus Enhance Faces upscaling types for this particular use case.


Strong


Strong (Beta): our latest model for maximum clarity.


  • Fixes blur & improves faces (on inputs below 2.5MP)
  • Under active development, results may vary


Magic 


  • Next-generation, most powerful AI upscaler for AI art, food and landscape photos, and images where fine detail isn't critical
  • Works with and without prompts
  • Allows you to set the creativity level (the higher it is, the more ingerention in your original image, we suggest between 10-40%)
  • Increases image resolution by 1x, 2x, 4x, 8x and 16x factors
  • Allows manual resizing (preserving the aspect ratio of the image)


Digital Art


  • For all types of digital art, including illustrations, cartoons, and anime
  • Allows you to increase your image resolution by 2x, 4x, 8x and up to 16x

Advanced options


Size

Allows to set your custom values for width & height and resolution. Here's how.


Light AI

Neural network that enhances the light (exposure), colors (saturation), depth (contrast), and detail


Remove background

Removes the background from your images. Remember to set the output file format to PNG before processing. Here's how.


Tone enhance

Apply for higher dynamic range


Color enhance

Increase saturation and provide brightness adjustments

PRESETS


Printing


It’s a combination of the ‘Photo’ algorithm and a variety of output formats for printing purposes (such as posters, photos, and international papers); however, it’s crucial to keep in mind, that it does not work well with blurry images.
