Drop in an image and an AI model enlarges it 4x with sharper detail than a plain resize. The model runs on your own device.

Your image stays on your device. It is never uploaded or stored anywhere.

Overview

Increases the resolution of an image using AI super-resolution, adding detail rather than just stretching pixels. Useful for enlarging small photos, sharpening low-resolution images, and preparing pictures for larger displays or print. It runs in your browser, so your image is never uploaded.

How it works

The tool uses Real-ESRGAN, a super-resolution model that reconstructs fine detail when it scales an image up, which looks far sharper than ordinary resizing. To handle large images within a browser's memory limits, it processes the picture in tiles and stitches them back together. It runs locally through ONNX Runtime Web, using your GPU (WebGPU) where available and falling back to CPU (WebAssembly) when needed, so the image stays on your device.

How to use it

  1. Upload or drag in the image you want to enlarge.
  2. Wait while the model loads and processes the image tile by tile.
  3. Compare the upscaled result with the original.
  4. Download the higher-resolution image.

Examples

Enlarge a small photo

Take a low-resolution image and scale it up for a banner or a larger screen without the soft, blocky look of plain resizing.

Sharpen an old picture

Improve the clarity of a small or dated photo so faces and edges read more cleanly.

FAQ

Is my image uploaded?
No. The model runs in your browser, so the image is processed on your device and never sent to a server.
How much can it enlarge an image?
It is designed to scale images up by a few times. Pushing far beyond that gives diminishing returns, since the model can only infer so much detail.
Why does a large image take a while?
Super-resolution is heavy work, and the tool processes the image in tiles to fit in memory. Bigger images mean more tiles and more time.
Can it fix a very blurry or tiny image?
It improves clarity, but it cannot invent detail that was never captured. Results are best when the source has some detail to work from.
What formats can I use?
Common formats like PNG, JPG, and WebP work. The tool outputs a standard image you can download and reuse.
