Exploring Online AI Upscalers

Kaa Tools

Jump on over to kaa.com to get started. Kaa harnesses AI to suggest enhancements for your images from a selection of models and lets you fine-tune the results with some pretty straightforward sliders. The interface is super user-friendly—just drag and drop your image or click to upload. Once your image is in, the right-hand toolbar offers options to adjust the autogenerated prompt, the resemblance to the original, and the desired clarity for that crisp finish.

Upscale.org

Next, we're heading over to upscale.org, which offers an offline application available for various operating systems. The installation is quick and easy.

Pixelcut AI Upscaler

Leonardo AI

Leonardo AI offers a variety of ways to enhance your images, including alternate, smooth, crisp, and alchemy upscaling options. Note that the alchemy option is a premium feature.
