The Best Alternative to ESRGAN Upscaling
While ESRGAN (Enhanced Super-Resolution Generative Adversarial Networks) offers powerful upscaling capabilities and impressive detail enhancement, Upsampler.com provides a more accessible, reliable, and feature-rich experience. Go beyond raw algorithms with intuitive controls, creative options, and a full suite of tools designed for both stunning results and ease of use.
Beyond ESRGAN: Creative Enhancement with Smart Upscale
Achieve and surpass the detail generation ESRGAN is known for, but with greater creative control and consistency. Smart Upscale not only increases resolution but artfully regenerates your image, excelling with complex scenes, textures, and faces, offering a refined alternative to raw ESRGAN outputs.
Intelligently Add New Details with Dynamic Upscale
While ESRGAN mostly preserves the image, Dynamic Upscale offers a more controlled approach to creatively enhancing images. It increases resolution while intelligently generating new, context-aware details, breathing fresh life into your images while preserving the original composition with greater predictability.
Reliable, High-Fidelity Upscaling with Precise Upscale
For times when you need clean, faithful enlargement without the potential artifacts or stylistic interpretations, our Precise Upscale delivers. It sharpens and enlarges images while meticulously preserving original content, a dependable choice alongside our more creative tools.
Generate Entirely New Images with World-Leading AI Models
