AI Video Upscaling and Restoration
Footage that isn't good enough yet: a 480p archive tape, a shaky phone clip, a generated shot that came out soft. These tools upscale to 4K, strip noise and compression blocks, sharpen faces, stabilize, interpolate frames for slow motion, and colourize old black and white film. Most run on the desktop because the work leans on the graphics card, and render time is part of the cost. The honest test is whether detail is recovered or invented, since an over-sharpened face looks worse than the soft original. We rank on results at two and four times, artefacts, speed on consumer hardware, batch handling, and whether you buy a licence or rent a subscription.
