Upscaling an image.

Upscale a picture two or four times in your browser with Real-ESRGAN, part by part with every part checked. Nothing uploaded, no sign-up.

A small, blocky picture of a dog beside the same picture four times as large and sharp, marked as made up by a model

Two or four times as wide and tall.

2× or 4×.

The model enlarges four times; for two times the result is made smaller by half, as Real-ESRGAN itself does.

How large.

Up to 36 million pixels on a computer and 12 million on a phone; the page says when a picture is too large and how large it may be.

The file.

Written as PNG without loss, or JPEG, and read back at its size before it is offered.
