AI image upscaler: upscale an image to 4K

Make a small image big enough to use. Upload low-resolution cover art or a press photo and the AI enlarges it to 4K while rebuilding edges and texture instead of just stretching pixels.

How to upscale a photo to 4K

From a small or soft image to a 4K PNG in three steps.

  1. 1. Upload the image Sign in with a free account and add a JPG, PNG, or WebP of up to 20 MB: cover art, a press photo, a thumbnail, or a still from a video.
  2. 2. Generate the 4K version There are no settings to choose. Press Generate.
  3. 3. Download the PNG The result appears under Your recent creations; open it to save the PNG. Compare it with the original at full size before you send it to a distributor or a printer.

What you can do

  • Upscales to 4K resolution in one step
  • Rebuilds detail and edges rather than blurring them
  • Useful for distributor cover art requirements, posters, and merch
  • No settings to tune

Turn a small photo into a 4K image

Upscaling is for the picture that is right but too small: cover art under a distributor's minimum size, a press photo saved from a chat app, a thumbnail that looks soft on a big screen, or artwork you want on a poster or a shirt. The AI enlarges the image to 4K and rebuilds edges and texture on the way, instead of just stretching the pixels.

How many upscales are free?

Four to start. A new web account starts with 20 credits and each upscale costs 5. On the free plan the balance tops back up to 10 credits each day you sign in, enough for two more a day. Beyond that, credits come from a paid plan or a credit pack. The price shows on the Generate button, and credits are refunded if a generation fails.

What the image upscaler can't do

It adds resolution and sharpness. It does not repair scratches or tears (use Photo Restoration) or change colors and lighting (use the Image Editor), and it cannot bring back a face or lettering that the blur has wiped out. The output is one size, 4K, as a PNG: there is no 2x or 8x option and no other format. It upscales one still image per run; for clips, use the video upscaler, which goes to 1080p.

Frequently asked questions

How do I upscale an image?

Upload the image and generate. Download the enlarged 4K version when it finishes.

Will it fix a blurry photo?

It sharpens soft images and adds resolution. Heavily damaged or very old prints do better in Photo Restoration first.

What formats are supported?

JPG, PNG, and WebP files up to 20 MB.

Is the image upscaler free?

New Solmi accounts start with free credits, enough for your first few upscales. After that each upscale costs a few credits, shown before you generate.

Does it work as an AI image enhancer or photo enhancer?

Yes, for sharpness and resolution: it rebuilds edges and texture as it enlarges, so a soft or pixelated photo comes back crisper at 4K. It is built to add detail rather than change color or lighting; use the Image Editor for a regrade and Photo Restoration for scratches and tears.
