AI Image Upscaler & Restorer

Sharpen blurry images and restore old photos

Drop in a blurry, noisy, or old photo, and get a sharp, clean version back. The AI recovers details in eyes, hair, and fabric, removes noise and pixelation, fixes color and exposure, and restores scratches and creases in scanned photos. Processing happens on the server. The image is downsized in the browser to a long edge of up to 1568 pixels, sent for processing, and returns as a PNG file after 10 to 30 seconds, right next to the original for comparison. It aims to preserve what is in the image, but since it rebuilds it, small details might change. The tool also accepts HEIC from iPhones.

Frequently asked questions

Does this change the image?

The tool aims to improve sharpness, noise, and color only, without adding or removing anything. Since the AI rebuilds the image, small details like text or facial features might change, so it is worth comparing before using the result.

Does it work on old scanned photos?

Yes, this is one of its best uses. The tool fixes fading, scratches, and creases.

Does it enlarge the image for printing?

No. The image is sent downsized to an edge of up to 1568 pixels, and the output is roughly the same size. For large prints, there is a separate print preparation tool that enlarges up to 4x without changing the image.

Is the image sent to a server?

Yes, unlike most tools on the site. A downsized copy is sent for secure AI processing, and the result returns to your browser. According to the tool, the image is not saved after processing.

How long does it take?

Usually between 10 and 30 seconds per image. You can leave the tab open during this time, and the result will appear next to the original.

Is there a limit on the number of images?

Yes. The free account includes one trial. On the paid plan, each enhancement costs credits from your monthly quota, and after each enhancement, you will see how many credits you have left this month.

If reloading did not help, your browser may be too old. Klix runs the tools on your own device rather than on a server, so it needs a browser from 2022 or later. What to do: update Chrome or Firefox, then open klixtools.com again.
