Video Upscale

AI video upscaling up to 10x

Video Upscale uses AI to increase the resolution of any video — up to 4K or 10x the original size — while recovering fine detail, sharpening faces, and removing noise. It supports five different AI models tuned for different content types and quality budgets.

Standard upscaling tools simply stretch pixels and get blurry. AI upscaling reconstructs detail that wasn't in the original, making old footage look crisp, AI-generated clips look cinematic, and compressed social videos look broadcast-quality.

What you can do

  • upscale_video — increase resolution using your choice of AI model, up to 10x factor or a specific target resolution like 1080p, 2K, or 4K
  • list_models — browse available models with descriptions to choose the right one for your content

Who it's for

Filmmakers restoring old or low-res footage, content creators polishing AI-generated video clips, social media editors bringing compressed downloads back to full quality, and archivists upgrading historical video for modern display.

How to use it

  1. Use list_models to see the available options and pick one suited to your content
  2. Run upscale_video with the video URL and your chosen model
  3. Set target_resolution (1080p, 2K, 4K) or an upscale_factor (2x, 4x, etc.)
  4. For AI-generated footage, use the aigc enhancement preset; for old film, use the old_film preset; for faces, choose the seedvr2 model

Getting started

Have a publicly accessible video URL ready. For general content, the default model works well. For premium results on faces and detailed textures, choose seedvr2. For the fastest turnaround, try flashvsr.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can it upscale a clip to 1080p, 2K, or 4K?

Yes. `upscale_video` can target common HD and 4K outputs or scale up by a factor when you need a bigger master.

How do I choose the right model?

`list_models` shows the available video upscalers so you can pick one for general footage, faces, AI-generated clips, or old film.

What kind of footage works best?

The tool is tuned for regular footage, face-heavy shots, AI-generated video, and older material that needs noise reduction and texture recovery.

What comes back after the job finishes?

You get a downloadable upscaled video plus the model used, so it is easy to compare results or rerun the job with a different setting.
