What does Upscayl do?

Upscayl is an online AI photo editor focused on upscaling and enhancement. Upload up to 5 images at once, pick an enhancement mode and output resolution, preview the result, then download a cleaner, sharper image in a supported format.

It targets common quality problems like blur and pixelation, and offers AI-powered reconstruction for more natural-looking detail. You can use it for portraits and anime/art-style images, as well as restoration workflows aimed at improving older or damaged photos.

For output control, Upscayl provides multiple scaling options and supports common formats such as JPG, PNG, and WEBP (with ZIP support for uploads). If you need higher-volume processing, it also offers tiered plans with credits, batch limits, and API access options.
