Upscale an Image

Give Your Images a New Life with Vector Ink’s Free AI Upscaler

Blurry photo? Pixelated logo? With Vector Ink’s new **AI Image Upscaler**, you can enhance image resolution in seconds — completely free. Instead of simply stretching pixels, our AI reconstructs missing detail and smooths edges for crystal-clear results. Whether you’re preparing an old image for print, cleaning up a logo, or getting ready to vectorize, the upscaler gives you studio-quality sharpness right in your browser.

What Image Upscaling Actually Does

Traditional resizing just enlarges pixels, making an image look blocky or soft. AI upscaling, on the other hand, analyzes every edge, color gradient, and texture to *intelligently fill in* lost details. It’s like teaching your image what it was always meant to look like — sharper, smoother, and ready for design or print.

Common uses include:

• Restoring clarity to old or compressed images.
• Making small graphics print-ready without losing detail.
• Improving source quality before converting to SVG with the Vectorizer.
• Sharpening photos for thumbnails, product shots, or marketing materials.

Completely Free – No Sign-Up, No Limits (for Now)

Unlike most AI tools, Vector Ink’s upscaler is **free to use** — no watermarks, credit cards, or accounts required. Simply upload your image and click Upscale. Within moments, you’ll have a high-resolution version ready to download or edit. It’s fast, powerful, and accessible to everyone — from crafters to professional designers.

Our goal is to make advanced design tools open to all. Whether you’re touching up a photo or fixing a logo, Vector Ink helps you create your best work without barriers.

You can also upscale directly inside the Vector Ink Web App. Here’s how:

Upscale + Vectorizer: The Secret to Clean, Sharp SVGs

If your image is low-quality and your SVG results come out rough or incomplete, try upscaling first. The AI Upscaler improves clarity and contrast, giving our Vectorizer more detail to interpret. The result? Cleaner edges, smoother lines, and professional-grade vector output.

Quick tip: When working with small logos, upscale 2× or 4× before vectorizing to ensure every curve and color is accurately captured.

Who Can Benefit from the Upscaler?

• Crafters & DIY Designers – Enlarge photos for cutting machines like Cricut or Silhouette.
• Logo Designers – Clean up pixelated marks before tracing or refining in Vector Ink.
• Photographers & Artists – Restore older or compressed images for portfolios.
• Students & Educators – Improve image quality for projects and visual presentations.

Tips for Best Results

• Start with at least a 512px wide image for optimal output.
• Use Upscale first, then Vectorize for the cleanest SVGs.
• Combine Upscaler with the Background Remover for cut-ready designs.
• For very large images, upscale once, review, then upscale again for more refinement.
