The Problem
Your Videos Are Fading Away
Old tapes degrade. Desktop apps need installing and setting up. Sound familiar?
VHS Tapes Are Dying
Magnetic tape wears with age and with every playback, and the players that read it are getting harder to find.
Old Videos Look Terrible on Modern TVs
480p camcorder footage on a 4K TV looks pixelated, blurry, and unwatchable. The bigger the screen, the worse it looks.
Restoration Services Take Time
Sending footage to a restoration service means shipping it away, paying for the job and waiting for it to come back.
Desktop Software Is a Yearly Plan
Topaz stopped selling perpetual licences on 3 October 2025. Its desktop video app renders on your own computer, so speed depends on your hardware.

Phone Videos Never Look Professional
Even 1080p smartphone videos from 2-3 years ago look dated. Night footage is grainy. Motion is blurry.
Old Media Keeps Ageing
Tapes, discs and old drives fail with age. Digitise and enhance footage while the originals still play.
There's a better way. Browser-based. Pay-per-use.
You've tried tools that add watermarks. You've looked at desktop apps that need installing. You've considered services that mean shipping your footage away and waiting.

Powered by cutting-edge AI technology that delivers unmatched quality and performance
Runs in the Browser
Topaz Video's desktop app costs $299 a year, billed annually, and renders on your own computer (topazlabs.com/pricing, checked 2026-09-23). Imagera runs in the browser on any device and bills each clip in credits.
Choose the Output Size
The Imagera Upscaler outputs 1024p, 1536p or 2048p; the Pro engines go up to 4K. Pick the tier per clip and see the credit cost before you run.
Rebuilds Detail Instead of Resizing
A diffusion model rebuilds texture and removes compression artifacts frame by frame, rather than stretching the existing pixels.
Restore Old Family Videos
Digitised VHS, camcorder and early phone footage comes back cleaner and sharper for modern screens. Results depend on how much picture survived the transfer.
Longer Videos in Parts
The Imagera Upscaler takes clips up to 60 seconds. Split a longer video into 60-second parts in the Video Editing Tools and enhance them one after another.
Pay-Per-Use Credits
Each clip is billed in credits by its length and quality tier, so an occasional job costs only that job.
Video Enhancement Use Cases
See how professionals and individuals transform video quality across industries
YouTube & Content Creators
Digital Content
Content creators repurpose old footage, upgrade phone videos and keep quality consistent across platforms.
Challenges
- Old videos shot in 720p or lower resolution
- Phone footage needs professional quality upgrade
- Platform compression degrades upload quality
Solutions
- Upscale to 2048p, or up to 4K on the Pro engines
- AI enhancement rebuilds lost detail
- See the credit cost before each run
VHS & Tape Restoration
Film Archival
Digitised VHS and camcorder tapes carry noise, colour fade and soft detail from the tape and the transfer.
Challenges
- Magnetic tape wears with age and playback
- Transfers carry tape noise and colour fade
- Manual frame-by-frame editing takes weeks
Solutions
- Diffusion-based AI rebuilds lost detail
- Reduces tape noise and compression artifacts
- Enhance long transfers in 60-second parts
Family Videos & Memories
Personal Archival
Family moments captured on old camcorders, early smartphones or ageing DVDs.
Challenges
- Camcorder footage is often 480p or lower
- Early smartphone videos are grainy and noisy
- Wedding/birthday videos degrading on old media
Solutions
- Upscale for modern TV viewing
- Remove noise and compression artifacts
- Keep a high-quality digital copy
Business & Corporate
Enterprise
Training videos, product demos and corporate archives need quality upgrades.
Challenges
- Legacy training videos look outdated
- Webinar recordings need quality improvement
- Product demos shot on older equipment
Solutions
- Enhance clips from any browser, no install
- Same quality tier across a whole series
- Pay per clip in credits
Security & Surveillance
Safety & Compliance
CCTV and dashcam footage is often low resolution and heavily compressed. Enhancement makes it cleaner to watch; it generates plausible detail, so it does not recover what the camera missed.
Challenges
- Older CCTV often records at low resolution
- Compression smears fine detail
- Nighttime footage is noisy and unclear
Solutions
- Cleaner, sharper footage for review
- Reduce noise in low-light footage
- Not a substitute for evidence-grade originals
Social Media & TikTok
Influencer Marketing
Short-form content dominates. Creators need to repurpose old content and make every video look sharp on any platform.
Challenges
- Repurposing long-form content to shorts
- Old viral content needs quality refresh
- Cross-platform quality requirements vary
Solutions
- Download the enhanced clip to post anywhere
- No watermarks on any output
- Browser-based works from any device

Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about AI video enhancement
An AI video enhancer uses machine-learning models to rebuild detail, sharpness and colour in low-quality footage, rather than simply resizing it. On Imagera you upload a clip in the browser and pick an engine: the Imagera Upscaler rebuilds the clip with a diffusion model at 1024p, 1536p or 2048p, and the Pro engines go up to 4K. Processing runs on Imagera's servers, and the studio shows the credit cost before you start. A clip of up to 5 seconds costs at least 15 credits.
Yes — as a video quality enhancer it is built for exactly that. Social platforms and older cameras compress footage heavily, leaving blur, blockiness, and grain. Upload the degraded clip and the AI removes compression artifacts, denoises, and restores sharpness up to 2048p on the Imagera Upscaler, or up to 4K on the Pro engines, with no cropping and your original aspect ratio preserved. It works on phone recordings, screen captures, old downloads and AI-generated clips alike.
We support MP4, MOV, AVI, and WEBM formats. We automatically optimize the output format for best quality.
Measured on 2026-09-23 across the 53 enhancer runs completed on Imagera since 26 January 2026, the median time from submitting a clip to a finished video was 78 seconds, and 90% finished within 303 seconds. That time includes any wait in the queue, and it grows with clip length and quality tier.
We support videos up to 1GB in size. The Imagera engine enhances up to 60 seconds per clip — split a longer video into 60-second chunks in the Video Editing Tools and enhance them one after another. The Pro engines take clips up to 5 minutes.
On the Imagera Upscaler a clip is billed per 5-second block: 10 credits at 1024p, 20 at 1536p and 40 at 2048p, with a minimum of 15 credits per clip. The cheapest run, up to 5 seconds at 1024p, is 15 credits, and a one-minute clip is 120 to 480 credits. The Pro engines are priced per second by output size. The studio shows the exact cost before you run; see the pricing page for credit packages.
Yes! All enhanced videos come with full commercial rights. You own everything you enhance.
The Imagera Upscaler's diffusion model rebuilds detail at up to 2048p, and the Pro engines reach 4K (3840 px on the long edge). Unlike simple interpolation, it generates detail that was not in the original. No engine here outputs 8K yet.
For optimal results, use at least 480p source videos with the High quality setting. Our AI excels at restoring degraded or lower-quality footage. Note: If your video contains text, use higher quality settings to prevent artifacts.
No cropping. The enhancer keeps your original aspect ratio, so what you upload is what you get back — just enhanced.
Topaz stopped selling perpetual licences on 3 October 2025. On its pricing page (topazlabs.com/pricing, checked 2026-09-23), Topaz Video for Mac and PC costs $299 a year and renders on your own computer, and Topaz for Web – Video runs in the browser at a list price of $29 a month or $299 a year, shown with a limited-time offer of $19 a month or $199 a year, with 200 credits a month. Imagera also runs in the browser, on any device, and bills each clip in credits by its length and quality tier, with the cost shown before you run.
Yes, once the tape has been digitised: the enhancer works on video files such as MP4 or MOV, not on the tape itself. Upload the file and the AI reduces tape noise and compression artifacts and rebuilds detail. How far it can go depends on how much picture survived the transfer, so start from the best digitised copy you have.
Processing runs on Imagera's servers, so your device only needs a current web browser to upload a clip and download the result — a laptop, tablet or phone works. For comparison, Topaz Video's desktop app renders on your own Mac or PC, while Topaz for Web – Video renders in the cloud (topazlabs.com/pricing, checked 2026-09-23).
The Imagera Upscaler is a diffusion model: it rebuilds texture and removes compression artifacts rather than stretching pixels, at 1024p, 1536p or 2048p. The Pro engines reach 4K, and the Max engine adds a choice of enhancement models plus frame-rate and grain controls. You choose the engine for each clip and see its price before you run.
Yes. Upload the clip like any other video; the enhancer does not depend on which tool made it. Upscaling helps when a generator's output is smaller than the place you publish it: up to 2048p on the Imagera Upscaler, or up to 4K on the Pro engines.
Upload the saved copy, choose a quality tier, enhance it and download the result. Social platforms compress every upload, so start from the best copy you have and expect the platform to compress the enhanced version again when you post it.
Yes, for viewing. The enhancer can make low-resolution, compressed footage cleaner and easier to watch. It generates plausible detail rather than recovering what the camera did not record, so it cannot reliably reveal an unreadable licence plate or face, and enhanced footage should not be treated as evidence. Check local laws for evidence requirements.
Yes. Older uploads were often published at low resolution. Enhance them up to 2048p on the Imagera Upscaler, or up to 4K on the Pro engines, for archiving or re-editing. Only enhance videos you own or have the rights to use.

What is Imagera AI Video Enhancer?
Browser-based AI video upscaling up to 4K. The Imagera Upscaler outputs 1024p to 2048p; the Pro engines reach 4K. A clip of up to 5 seconds costs at least 15 credits, and the studio shows the cost before you run.
How is this different from Topaz Video AI?
Topaz stopped selling perpetual licences on 3 October 2025. Topaz Video costs $299 a year on desktop and renders on your own computer; Topaz for Web – Video runs in the browser at $29 a month or $299 a year list price (topazlabs.com/pricing, checked 2026-09-23). Imagera runs in the browser and bills each clip in credits. See the Topaz vs Imagera comparison → or pay per video instead of a license →
How long does enhancement take?
Measured across 53 completed runs (2026-09-23): median 78 seconds from submit to finished video, and 90% within 303 seconds, queue time included.
Can I restore old VHS and family videos?
Yes, once the tape is digitised. The enhancer reduces tape noise and compression artifacts and rebuilds detail; how far it goes depends on how much picture survived the transfer.
What output quality can I expect?
Up to 2048p on the Imagera Upscaler, a diffusion model that rebuilds texture rather than stretching pixels, and up to 4K on the Pro engines.
Can it enhance video to 8K?
Not today. The Imagera Upscaler rebuilds detail at up to 2048p, and the Pro engines stop at 4K (3840 px on the long edge), so no engine here outputs an 8K file. For video watched on a phone, a laptop or a 4K TV, 4K is already the most those screens can show. If you need an 8K file, this studio is not the right tool yet.
