AI Video Upscaler
Finishing-step video upscaling for paid tiers and masters. Priced by duration and target resolution, shown before you confirm.
The framing step, for clips
The video upscaler takes a finished clip to a higher resolution, rebuilding detail frame by frame, so work made at a working size can meet the measure of a storefront or a large placement. It runs on the video_upscaler model, priced by duration and target resolution — the figure is shown on the job before you confirm, and failure refunds itself. Like its still counterpart, it is the end of the path through the garden, never a rescue for what went wrong along it.
Because the price follows the seconds, this tool rewards a locked cut more than any other in the studio. Every trimmed second is a second not paid for twice — once to render and once to upscale — and every late change of mind reopens both bills. The rhythm below is therefore mostly about finality: settle casting, cuts and grade while changing them is still cheap, then upscale the shipped cut exactly once, at exactly the measure of its destination.
The gardener’s rhythm
Lock the cut first
Casting, cuts and grade are final at working resolution, where changing your mind is still cheap.
Upscale once, to the measure
Aim at the actual requirement of the destination. Beyond it lies cost without visibility, and this studio does not buy invisibility.
Check at full size, throughout
Faces and the edges of motion, across the whole clip — above all at turns and changes of light, where weakness shows first.
Deliveries, worked through
A locked twelve-second store cut, upscaled once to the high-definition measure its tier advertises.
The placement promises a resolution and the file honestly meets it. The cut was final before the pass ran, so the pass ran exactly once.
A four-second feed teaser, shipped at working resolution with no finishing pass at all.
Teasers live small and brief. If one ever outgrows its size and earns a larger placement, it can be upscaled then — the option keeps; the credits need not be spent early.
When the step earns its price
Paid tiers, honestly labelled
A placement that advertises high definition receives a file that honestly meets the word.
A clip that outgrew its size
A teaser performing beyond the rest of the catalogue earns a delivery pass for larger placements.
One master, kept well
A high-resolution master of the flagship scenes, kept while the working catalogue stays lean.
The cost, and its levers
| Lever | Effect | Practice |
|---|---|---|
| Duration | Longer clips cost more | Upscale the shipped cut, never the rushes |
| Target resolution | Higher costs more | Match the measure of the placement exactly |
| Timing | The price is the same whenever it runs | Run it last, when nothing else will change |
How is video upscaling priced?
By duration and target resolution on the video_upscaler model, shown before you confirm. Failed jobs refund automatically.
Can it rescue a poor clip?
No. It raises resolution. It does not raise the quality of a performance, a casting or a light — those are settled earlier, at working size.
Should every clip be upscaled?
No. Teasers and ordinary feed clips rarely repay it. Keep it for paid tiers, for winners, and for masters.
Does it replace the original clip?
No. It produces a delivery version that rests beside the working file.
What should be checked afterwards?
Faces and motion edges at full size, across the whole clip — at turns and changes of light above all.
