Which AI tool we'll use

As a solid example, we’ll use Freepik AI — a service we've mentioned before. You can upscale 2 images for free each day. The maximum resolution available here is 4K.

Sign up and upload your image

The tool you need is available at freepik.com/pikaso/upscaler. Click the “Browse files” button, and after uploading, you’ll see settings where you can choose the output quality and optionally add a prompt.

Getting the result

The processing takes just a few seconds, and then you can download the result for free without watermarks. Sometimes the AI adjusts contrast or modifies small details.
