Topaz Image Upscale is now available on Cliprise, completing the Topaz Labs toolkit on the platform alongside the existing Topaz Video Upscaler.
Topaz Image Upscale brings professional-grade static image enhancement to the Cliprise model catalog - supporting 2×, 4×, and 6× upscaling with genuine detail recovery for photography, product imagery, and AI-generated photorealistic content.
What Topaz Image Upscale Delivers
Topaz Labs built its reputation on a specific claim: AI enhancement that professionals can actually use without post-processing corrections. Topaz Image Upscale applies a GAN-based super-resolution architecture trained specifically on professional photography and product imagery, with the goal of recovering real detail rather than simulating sharpness.
The practical difference from generic upscalers:
- 2×, 4×, and 6× upscaling factors - covering web-to-print and web-to-large-format requirements
- Genuine texture recovery - fabric grain, material surfaces, and environmental detail reconstructed from learned priors, not sharpening artifacts
- AI-generated image mode - a dedicated processing path for diffusion model outputs that addresses the specific softness and artifact patterns that photorealistic AI generation introduces
- Integrated noise reduction - compression artifacts and sensor noise removed as part of the upscaling pass, not as a separate step
- Max output up to 24576×24576 at 6× - print-ready resolution from standard web inputs
For AI-Generated Content
Teams generating images on Cliprise and delivering to clients or production environments face a common problem: generation models produce web-resolution outputs (512×512 to 1024×1024) that need to meet print or large-display specifications before delivery.
Topaz Image Upscale closes this gap in a single step. An AI-generated product image at 1024×1024 is upscaled to 4096×4096 print-ready resolution with enhanced detail - no external Topaz subscription, no file transfer, no separate processing step.
This completes an end-to-end workflow entirely within Cliprise: generate with Gemini 3 Pro, Imagen 4, or Seedream 4.5, then upscale to delivery resolution with Topaz Image Upscale.
When to Use Topaz vs Recraft Crisp Upscale
Cliprise offers two upscaling options for static images, and they serve different content types:
- Topaz Image Upscale → photography, product shots, AI-generated photorealistic content
- Recraft Crisp Upscale → logos, icons, illustration, graphic design, line art
Applying Topaz to graphic design or Recraft to photography produces visible artifacts. Route by content type. For a full comparison, see Topaz Image Upscale vs Recraft Crisp Upscale.
Workflow Best Practices
| Input type | Recommended factor | Use case |
|---|---|---|
| Web thumbnail (512×512) | 2× or 4× | Social, email, display |
| AI product shot (1024×1024) | 4× | Print catalog, large hero |
| Photography (2048×2048) | 2× | Large-format display |
| High-res AI (2048×2048) | 6× | Print production, billboard |
For AI-generated content, run upscaling as the final step after prompt iteration is complete - upscaling early iterations wastes credits. The AI image upscaling 4K to 8K guide covers resolution planning for different delivery formats. Topaz Image Upscale processes images in the Cliprise pipeline without export; generate with Flux 2, Imagen 4, or Gemini 3 Pro, then upscale in the same session.
Available Now
Topaz Image Upscale is available immediately in the image editing section of the Cliprise models hub. It is accessible via the API using the topaz-image-upscale model identifier. Pricing at Cliprise pricing.
