# Magnific Upscaler & Enhancer
### **Overview**
Image upscaler and enhancer for high-detail restoration and creative upscaling.
***
### **Quick facts**
* **Modes:** Image → Image (upscale / enhance / transform)
* **Default output / size:** Precision 2× (fixed) · Creative 2×–16×
* **Aspect ratios:** Preserves input aspect ratio
* **Variants:** Precision (detail-first) · Creative (promptable stylization)
***
### **When to use each model**
* **Magnific Precision:** Best when you must preserve the original look—restoring archival scans, print prep, or broadcast stills where only a 2× upscale is needed. Fine-tune sharpness, grain, and ultra-detail without prompting.
* **Magnific Creative:** Choose this when you want to reinterpret the source—concept art, stylized photography, marketing assets, or when you need 4×–16× upscales. Add a prompt, pick an optimization preset, and steer creativity, detail, resemblance, and fractality.
***
### **What it’s great for**
* Photo upscaling for print and large-format uses.
* Enhancing texture, denoise, and creative detail reimagination.
* Preparing assets for VFX or large displays.

#### **Copy-and-paste prompts**
```
Upscale image to 4x, preserve skin detail, remove JPEG artifacts
```
```
Enhance texture and noise removal for print, keep natural lighting
```
### **Parameters**
#### **Magnific Precision parameters**
| Name | Type | Default | Notes |
| -------------- | ------ | ------- | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `Image` | Upload | — | Required input image |
| `Scale Factor` | Select | 2× | Fixed 2× enlargement (API enforces max allowed scale) |
| `Sharpen` | Slider | 50 | 0–100; higher values accentuate edges but can look artificial |
| `Smart Grain` | Slider | 7 | 0–100; reintroduces natural texture for photo realism |
| `Ultra Detail` | Slider | 30 | 0–100; boosts fine structure and clarity |
#### **Magnific Creative parameters**
| Name | Type | Default | Notes |
| --------------------- | ------ | -------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `Prompt` | Text | — | Optional guidance for creative reinterpretation |
| `Image` | Upload | — | Required input image |
| `Optimization Preset` | Select | Standard | Standard, Soft Portraits, Hard Portraits, Art & Illustration, Video Game Assets, Nature & Landscapes, Films & Photography, 3D Renders, Sci-Fi & Horror |
| `Scale Factor` | Select | 2× | 2×, 4× (2× cost), 8× (4× cost), 16× (8× cost); engine auto-limits if resolution would exceed 4096×4096 |
| `Creativity` | Slider | 2 | -10 to 10; higher values introduce more generative edits |
| `Detail (HDR)` | Slider | 6 | -10 to 10; controls definition and micro-contrast |
| `Resemblance` | Slider | 6 | -10 to 10; keeps the output closer to the original when lowered |
| `Fractality` | Slider | 6 | -10 to 10; governs prompt strength and intricate patterns |
| `Engine` | Select | Auto | Auto, Illusio (illustrations), Sharpy (photos), Sparkle (balanced; reduces JPEG artifacts) |
***
### **Modes**
| Mode | Estimated time | Required inputs | Typical use |
| ----------------------- | -------------- | --------------- | -------------------------- |
| Image → Image (upscale) | \~15 seconds | Image | Upscale for print & detail |
| Image → Image (enhance) | \~15 seconds | Image | Denoise and texture work |
***
### **Output options**
| Option | Values / notes |
| ------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| Scale | Precision: 2× fixed · Creative: 2×, 4×, 8×, 16× (auto-clamped if output would exceed 4096×4096) |
| Formats | PNG, JPG |
| Notes | Creative presets: Standard, Soft Portraits, Hard Portraits, Art & Illustration, Video Game Assets, Nature & Landscapes, Films & Photography, 3D Renders, Sci-Fi & Horror |
***
### **Prompt tips**
* For Precision, start with the base 2× upscale and nudge Sharpen/Ultra Detail carefully—small increments keep it photoreal.
* For Creative, pair a succinct prompt with an Optimization preset that matches the content (e.g., Soft Portraits for faces).
* Dial Resemblance down if you want a bolder reimagining; push Fractality up only when you need intricate stylized detail.
