Super Resolution Guide

What Is Super Resolution?

Super resolution increases image resolution using AI, adding plausible detail that simple resizing cannot. Colorify uses Real-ESRGAN for 2× or 4× upscaling.

When to Use It

Low-resolution photos, thumbnails, screenshots, or any image you need larger for print or display. Works on both color and grayscale images.

Step-by-Step on Colorify

  1. Go to the home page and select Super Resolution.
  2. Upload your image (PNG, JPG, WEBP, up to 50MB).
  3. Click Process. Wait for processing (30 seconds to a few minutes).
  4. Download the upscaled image.

Best Practices

Start with the clearest source. Avoid heavily compressed images. GPU processing is faster; CPU uses tiling and may take longer.

Common Issues

Large images may time out—try a smaller crop first. Very low-res images (e.g., 64×64) may not improve dramatically.
