When upscaling is worth it
Upscaling works best on clips with decent detail that just need more pixels. Here's an honest picture of where it helps.
AI-generated clips
Most video models render at 480p–1080p. Upscaling makes them hold up on large screens and in 4K edits.
Old or compressed footage
Phone videos, social downloads and archive clips gain cleaner edges and texture.
Smoother motion
Topaz and the ByteDance Upscaler can also output 60 fps for silkier movement.
What it can't do
Upscalers add plausible detail; they can't recover a face that's a few blurry pixels or fix heavy motion blur.
