AI Image Upscaler API — HD Image Enhancement
Live3 modelsMuapi's image upscaler API increases resolution, sharpness, and detail on any image via a single REST call. Three models cover every budget and quality tier — a $0.02 general-purpose upscaler, SeedVR2's one-step diffusion restoration for degraded or compressed images, and Topaz's premium super-resolution engine for maximum fidelity. Same submit-and-poll pattern as every other model on the platform, pay-per-generation, from $0.02.
AI Image Upscaler
Transform blurry or pixelated images into high-definition visuals. Deep-learning detail reconstruction at the lowest cost per generation on the platform.
SeedVR2 Image Upscale
One-step diffusion-transformer model for image restoration, super-resolution, deblurring, and artifact removal — preserves natural colors and fine detail.
Topaz Image Upscale
High-quality AI super-resolution that increases resolution, sharpness, and detail while reducing noise and preserving a natural look and fine edges.
What is an AI Image Upscaler API?
An AI image upscaler uses deep learning to increase an image's resolution while reconstructing detail that simple pixel interpolation loses — sharper edges, restored texture, and cleaner results from blurry, low-resolution, or compressed source images.
Muapi exposes three upscaling models through the same unified REST pattern used across every model on the platform — one API key, one request/poll flow, pay-as-you-go pricing from $0.02 per generation.
Key Capabilities
General-Purpose Upscaling
The base AI Image Upscaler handles most blurry or pixelated images at $0.02 per generation — the lowest cost on the platform for a quick resolution boost.
Restoration & Artifact Removal
SeedVR2 is a one-step diffusion-transformer built for degraded or compressed sources — deblurring and removing compression artifacts while preserving natural color.
Premium Super-Resolution
Topaz Image Upscale delivers the highest fidelity output — restoring texture, reducing noise, and preserving natural edges for print or professional use.
Photo & Digital Art Revival
All three models handle old photograph restoration, low-res digital art, and product photography that needs a higher-resolution source.
No Infrastructure to Manage
Send an image URL, get back an upscaled image URL. No GPU provisioning, no model weights to host.
Pay Per Generation
No subscription or minimum commitment — pay only for the images you upscale, from $0.02 to $0.075 per generation depending on model.
Image Upscaler Model Comparison
| Model | Provider | Price | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| AI Image Upscaler | Muapi | $0.02 / generation | General-purpose HD upscaling, lowest cost |
| SeedVR2 Image Upscale | SeedVR2 | $0.02 / generation | Restoration, deblurring, compressed/low-quality sources |
| Topaz Image Upscale | Topaz | $0.075 / generation | Maximum fidelity, print and professional output |
How to Upscale an Image via API
- Pick a model — the base upscaler for cost, SeedVR2 for restoration, Topaz for maximum quality.
- Host your source image — upload via
POST /api/v1/upload_fileor use any publicly reachable image URL. - Submit the request —
POST /api/v1/{model-slug}with your image URL and optional scale/enhancement parameters. - Poll for completion — check
GET /api/v1/predictions/{request_id}/resultuntilstatusiscompleted, then download the upscaled image.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the AI Image Upscaler API?
Muapi's image upscaler API increases an image's resolution and detail using deep learning. Three models — a general-purpose upscaler, SeedVR2 restoration, and Topaz premium super-resolution — are available via a single REST endpoint.
Which model should I use for a compressed or low-quality image?
SeedVR2 Image Upscale is purpose-built for restoration, deblurring, and artifact removal on degraded or compressed sources.
How much does image upscaling cost?
From $0.02 per generation on the base AI Image Upscaler and SeedVR2, up to $0.075 per generation on Topaz Image Upscale for maximum fidelity.
What image formats are supported?
Standard web image formats (JPEG, PNG, WebP) via a publicly reachable URL or Muapi's upload endpoint.
Can I get Image Upscaler API access right now?
Yes. Sign up at muapi.ai, create an API key from your dashboard, and start upscaling images immediately — no waitlist required.
