What is Image Upscaler?
When you make an image bigger the usual way, you often end up with a blurry result. This tool uses Lanczos resampling, one of the sharpest mathematical methods available for enlarging images. It calculates each new pixel by sampling the surrounding area rather than just averaging nearby values, which keeps edges clean and preserves fine detail even at 4x the original size.
After upscaling, you can refine the result with two built-in controls. The sharpen slider boosts edge definition for a crisper look. The noise reduction slider smooths out grain or compression artifacts. Both update the preview instantly without re-running the upscale, so you can dial in the result without waiting.
Use the Photo, Illustration, or Anime preset to start with settings that suit your image type, then adjust from there. The before/after slider lets you compare the original and upscaled version side by side before you download.
Everything runs inside your browser. No file is ever uploaded to a server. Your images stay on your device throughout the entire process. Download the result as PNG, WebP, or JPG depending on which format fits your needs.
