ImgScale rebuilds low-resolution photos and illustrations up to 4× with AI — free, instant, and with no signup or watermarks.

Drag the slider — left is the low-res source, right is the AI-enhanced result.
Most upscalers cap quality behind a login or upload your files. We do neither.
Real-ESRGAN-style models rebuild edges and texture naturally — no harsh halos or artifacts.
The AI upscaler processes your photo on our secure server and deletes it the moment your result is ready. The 16 other tools run 100% in your browser.
No account, no email, no waiting. Open a tool and use it right now — unlimited batches too.
Upscaling is what we do best — the rest are free bonuses for the same images.
Five more free tools for creative image work — pixel art, GIF editing, ASCII art, color extraction, and photo framing.
Every PixelLab tool comes with deep, practical guides — how the algorithms actually work, when to use each setting, and how to get pro results. From AI upscaling internals to dithering math to building a CSS design system from a photo.
Drag in one or many images, click to browse, or paste from clipboard — single photos or a whole batch.
Pick 1× (enhance only), 2×, or 4×, switch on face enhancement for portraits, and choose PNG, JPG, or WEBP output.
Drag the before/after slider, zoom with the loupe, then export PNG, JPG, WEBP — or a batch ZIP.
Route an image through a visual pipeline — upscale, remove the background, resize, compress — all in one flow. Or drop a batch and let Studio auto-pick the right action for each.
Five new tools for the fun side of images — turn photos into retro pixel art, change GIF speed, generate ASCII art, pull color palettes, and frame your shots. Same ImgScale promise: free, in your browser, nothing uploaded.
Yes. ImgScale is completely free — no account, no cost, and no limits. Ads on our guide pages keep it that way.
Only the AI upscaler uses a server: your photo is sent over an encrypted connection to our GPU server, upscaled, returned, and deleted right away — never stored or used for training. All 16 other tools process images entirely on your device.
2× doubles each dimension and looks most natural; 4× quadruples it for small sources or print, but asks the model to invent more detail.
Upload PNG, JPG, or WEBP, and download your result in any of those with adjustable quality.
Yes. Drop multiple files to queue a batch, process together, and download everything as a single ZIP.
