Overview

Topaz Video Upscaler is a professional-grade video enhancement model that upscales video resolution while restoring detail and reducing noise. It supports upscale factors of 1x (enhancement only), 2x, and 4x, enabling upgrades from standard definition to HD or from HD to 4K.

The model applies intelligent frame-by-frame processing that maintains temporal consistency -- details enhanced in one frame remain consistent across adjacent frames, avoiding the flickering artifacts common in naive upscaling approaches. It handles denoising, detail restoration, and sharpening simultaneously.

At 56 credits per operation, Topaz Video Upscaler is competitively priced for video-level processing. It is an essential post-production tool for anyone working with AI-generated video, archival footage, or any video content that needs a resolution boost.

  • Video upscaling at 1x, 2x, or 4x factor
  • Frame-by-frame detail restoration with temporal consistency

Input Parameters

video_url
filerequired

URL of the video to upscale (MP4/MOV/MKV, ≤50MB).

Upload the video to upscale. Supports common video formats. Shorter videos process faster and more reliably.

upscale_factor
select

Factor to upscale the video by (1x, 2x, or 4x).

1x enhances quality without changing resolution. 2x doubles the resolution (e.g., 720p to 1440p). 4x quadruples it (e.g., 480p to ~2K). Higher factors require more processing time.
