Low-resolution video is a persistent problem when you need to repurpose older footage, deliver work to clients who expect crisp quality, or simply make a clip look presentable on large screens. Video Increase Resolution takes a video file you already have and outputs a sharper version at up to 8K resolution, so you can bring aging footage up to modern standards without reshooting. You set two controls: a 2x or 4x scale factor, and the output format. The model supports MP4 with H.264 or H.265, WebM with VP9, MOV with H.265 or ProRes, MKV in multiple codecs, and GIF. Audio is kept intact by default, so the finished file is ready to use without additional post-processing. This tool fits naturally into any video editing workflow. Upload the clip, choose how much you want to upscale and in what format, and download the result. Because the model was trained exclusively on licensed footage, the output is safe for commercial use.
Video Increase Resolution takes a video file and outputs a sharper, higher-resolution version at up to 8K, without requiring you to reshoot or re-export from original assets. It is built for editors, content creators, and anyone who needs to bring older footage up to modern display standards. On Picasso IA, the whole process runs in a browser with no software to install. The model was trained on fully licensed footage, so the upscaled results are safe for commercial projects.
Do I need programming skills or technical knowledge to use this? No, just open Video Increase Resolution on Picasso IA, adjust the settings you want, and hit generate.
Is it free to try? Yes, you can run Video Increase Resolution without any upfront commitment. Some outputs may use credits depending on the video length and resolution settings you choose.
How long does it take to get results? Processing time depends on the length and starting resolution of your video. Short clips typically finish in under a minute, while longer or higher-resolution files take more time.
What output formats are supported? You can export as MP4 with H.264 or H.265, WebM with VP9, MOV with H.265 or ProRes, MKV in H.264, H.265, or VP9, and GIF. Pick whichever format works best for the platform or software you are editing in.
Can I customize the output quality? Yes. You set the scale factor (2x or 4x) and choose the codec, which lets you balance file size against visual quality. H.265 delivers better compression than H.264 at the same quality level, for instance.
Where can I use the outputs? The upscaled videos are yours to use for any purpose, including commercial projects. The model was trained on fully licensed data, so there are no restrictions on how you publish or distribute the results.
What happens if I'm not happy with the result? Try running at 2x first on a short clip to check quality before committing to a full 4x upscale. Switching codecs can also affect the final visual output, so testing a brief sample is the quickest way to find the right settings for your footage.
