About this app
Upscayl is a free and open-source desktop application that uses state-of-the-art AI models to enlarge and enhance low-resolution images. By utilizing your computer's native GPU, it processes everything entirely offline—meaning no internet connection is required, there are no subscriptions, and your private photos are never uploaded to a cloud server.
Core Features:
- AI-Powered Upscaling: Uses advanced models like Real-ESRGAN to recover lost details, add sharpness, and increase image resolution up to 16x.
- Multiple AI Models: Choose between specialized algorithms like High Fidelity, Ultrasharp, and Remacri depending on whether you are enhancing digital art, realistic photos, or heavily compressed web images.
- Batch Processing: Need to upscale an entire folder of old photos? Upscayl's batch mode processes multiple images simultaneously to save you massive amounts of time.
- Visual Comparisons: Features a built-in before-and-after slider so you can perfectly compare your original image to the newly generated AI details.
Note: Upscayl requires a Vulkan-compatible graphics card to function. It will not work properly on older machines with integrated CPUs only.
System Requirements
Windows 10/11 (64-bit), macOS 12+ (Intel/Apple Silicon), or Linux. (Requires a Vulkan-compatible GPU)
