AI Video Upscaler
Enhance and upscale any video up to 8K — sharp detail, clean motion, no desktop software. Powered by Topaz, the professional standard for video enhancement.
Keyo Studio's AI video upscaler takes low or medium resolution video and rebuilds it at higher quality — sharper frames, cleaner motion, reduced compression artifacts, up to 8K output. It's powered by Topaz Video AI, the professional-grade video enhancement tool used by filmmakers and content creators to upscale footage from 480p, 720p, or 1080p to 4K or 8K with reconstructed detail. Instead of installing desktop software, managing a local GPU, or waiting hours for a render, you upload your clip on Keyo Studio and get an enhanced version back in minutes — same Topaz quality, entirely in the browser. The upscaler supports clips up to 120 seconds and outputs at your choice of resolution, with pricing per second of video based on the output tier.
How AI video upscaling works
Unlike conventional scalers that simply stretch pixels, Topaz's AI video upscaler analyzes motion vectors, edges, textures, and noise patterns frame by frame, then reconstructs detail that wasn't present in the original. The result is footage that looks like it was shot at the higher resolution — not footage that was stretched and blurred on the way up. This frame-by-frame analysis is what separates professional AI upscaling from simple interpolation, and it's what makes old, compressed, or low-resolution footage genuinely usable at modern resolutions.
Powered by Topaz Proteus
The video upscaler on Keyo Studio runs on Topaz's Proteus model — the general-purpose workhorse designed to work well across most types of footage, with adjustable parameters for detail recovery, noise reduction, and artifact removal. Proteus delivers balanced enhancement — fine textures like clothing and background structures appear noticeably sharper, edges are cleaner without aggressive ringing, and the output maintains a natural look, avoiding excessive sharpening that can make AI-upscaled video look artificial. It handles everything from social media clips and screen recordings to archival footage and professionally shot video.
Resolution tiers and 120-second limit
The video upscaler supports three output resolution tiers: original resolution enhanced (noise and artifact removal with no upscale), 2K, and 4K. Output resolution is based on the longest side of your video, with aspect ratio preserved automatically — portrait, landscape, and square formats all come out correctly proportioned. The maximum clip length is 120 seconds per job, which covers the majority of social content, product videos, short ads, and individual scenes. You pay per second of output video at your chosen resolution tier, so cost scales directly with clip length.
What you can enhance
The AI video upscaler works on any type of video content: AI-generated video from any model, social media clips, product videos, footage shot on older cameras or phones, screen recordings, archival and archive video, and short film scenes. It's especially useful for AI-generated video — taking a clip produced at lower resolution on Keyo Studio's video generator and bringing it to broadcast or display quality in the same platform. On archival footage like VHS or old DVDs, Topaz consistently outperforms generic upscaling algorithms, preserving grain structure rather than smearing it into a waxy look.
Pricing on Keyo Studio
Video upscaling is priced per second of generated output based on resolution: 1 credit per second for original resolution enhancement and 2K output, and 2 credits per second for 4K output. A 60-second clip enhanced to 4K costs 120 credits. Cost is predictable and scales with clip length — no hidden processing fees, no per-frame billing. Credits are shared across every tool on the platform, so you can generate video, upscale it, and use audio tools all under one account.
Why Keyo Studio
Topaz Video AI costs $299 per year as a desktop subscription and requires a dedicated GPU to process at usable speeds. Keyo Studio brings the same Proteus model into the browser with no hardware requirements, no subscription to a separate tool, and no installation. Upload your clip, choose a resolution, and download the result. And because the upscaler sits alongside your video generator and audio tools in the same platform, you can produce, enhance, and publish video entirely in one place.

What is an AI video upscaler?
An AI video upscaler enhances and enlarges video to a higher resolution by reconstructing detail frame by frame, rather than simply stretching pixels. The result is sharper footage with cleaner motion and reduced compression artifacts.
What resolution can I upscale video to on Keyo Studio?
Keyo Studio's AI video upscaler supports three output tiers: original resolution with enhancement, 2K, and 4K. Aspect ratio is preserved automatically, and clips up to 120 seconds are supported per job.
What AI model powers the video upscaler?
The video upscaler is powered by Topaz Proteus — Topaz's general-purpose video enhancement model, designed for balanced detail recovery, noise reduction, and artifact removal across most types of footage.
What types of video can I upscale?
The upscaler handles any type of video — AI-generated clips, social media content, product videos, phone footage, screen recordings, and archival video. It works particularly well on AI-generated video, letting you take a clip from Keyo Studio's video generator and bring it to higher quality in the same platform.
How much does AI video upscaling cost on Keyo Studio?
Video upscaling is priced per second of output: 1 credit per second for original resolution and 2K, and 2 credits per second for 4K. A 60-second clip at 4K costs 120 credits.
Do I need special hardware or software to use the video upscaler?
No. The upscaler runs entirely in the browser — no desktop software, no GPU, no installation required. You upload your clip and download the enhanced version, with Topaz processing handled on Keyo Studio's servers.
