Upscale a video
In the studio, upload the video or paste its link and ask to upscale it.
Opens the Hermoso studio. Nothing runs until you say go, and the app shows the exact price first. Rather ask your AI? Add Hermoso to Claude or ChatGPT and say what you want.
A soft or low-resolution video looks cheap on a big screen and gets compressed even harder by the platforms. Upscaling makes it sharper before it goes out. Hermoso upscales any video you bring, whether you made it with Hermoso or not, and gives you two ways to do it.
Two ways to upscale
- Precise (the default). A faithful 2x enlargement that sharpens what is there without inventing anything. The safe choice for ads, product shots and anything with text or a logo in frame.
- FLUX 3 video upscaler. Takes a video to 1080p, 2K or 4K. Turn on its creative mode and it adds fine detail rather than only enlarging, which helps soft footage but can change small things, so check faces and text.
How do I upscale a video?
- Bring the video. Upload a file or paste a link.
- Pick the way. Precise for a faithful result, or FLUX 3 for a set resolution and optional added detail.
- Download it. The upscaled video lands in your library, ready to download, post or use in an ad.
Upscaling a Hermoso draft?
If the video is a 480p draft made in Hermoso with Seedance 2.5, there is a better option than upscaling: finish the draft. The same take is made again at full 1080p, with the same scenes, shots, motion and sound, which looks better than enlarging the small version. Drafts can be finished for 7 days, and the app offers it on the draft itself.
When is upscaling worth it?
- before running a video as an ad, where soft footage costs attention
- when a video will be shown large, on YouTube, a TV or a website hero
- when an older or low-resolution clip needs to sit next to new footage
It will not rescue a video that is badly out of focus or full of motion blur. Upscaling sharpens detail that is there; it cannot recover a shot that never had it.
Can I upscale videos from ChatGPT or Claude?
Yes. Connect the Hermoso MCP and ask your assistant to upscale a video. It runs through the upscale_video tool and returns a download link.

Frequently asked questions
Is there a free AI video upscaler?
Hermoso has a free plan with no card, and you can earn 250+ free credits on it. The app shows the exact price before a video is upscaled.
Can it upscale video to 4K?
Yes, with the FLUX 3 video upscaler, which outputs 1080p, 2K or 4K. The default precise upscaler doubles the resolution.
Will upscaling change my video?
The precise upscaler only sharpens what is already there. The FLUX 3 creative mode adds detail, which can change small things, so check faces and text.
Can I upscale a video I did not make with Hermoso?
Yes. Upload any video or paste its link.
Does it work as a video quality enhancer?
Yes, for sharpness and resolution. It cannot fix a shot that is badly out of focus or blurred by motion.
What about my 480p Hermoso drafts?
Finish the draft instead: the same take is made again at 1080p, which looks better than enlarging the small version. Drafts can be finished for 7 days.
