Upscalar for Blender

Make Every Pixel Count

Elevate your textures, plates, and renders with clean, high‑quality upscaling (2X/3X/4X) right inside Blender's Image Editor. No round‑trips, no guesswork—just sharp, production‑ready detail.

Clean detail, fewer artifacts

Preserve edges and surface patterns without over‑sharpened or "invented" textures.

Native Blender workflow

Load → Select Factor → Upscale. Your result appears instantly as a new Blender image.

Fast when it matters

GPU acceleration via DirectML on Windows, with CPU fallback for universal compatibility.

Video Sequencer

Upscale reference plates, screen inserts, or low‑res footage stills for sharper edits.

Shader Editor

Boost texture maps (albedo, roughness, masks) when source resolution is limited.

Compositor

Enhance plates and passes before keying, denoising, or final comp tweaks.

Grease Pencil

Cleanly enlarge drawn frames for crisper lines and fewer jaggies.

Render Rescue

When a small preview render is all you have, upscale it for reviews, boards, or quick turnarounds.

Production‑friendly results

Prioritizes crisp edges and natural textures—great for look‑dev, compositing, and delivery.

Consistent color

Preserves color fidelity; no strange saturation or contrast surprises.

Less "hallucination"

Compared to perceptual‑centric enhancers (e.g., Real‑ESRGAN), Upscalar emphasizes clean detail with fewer invented textures—ideal when you need believable, stable results.

Note: Currently tested and verified on Windows 11 x64. macOS ARM64 support is experimental and not guaranteed to work without issues.
