upscale_image increases the resolution of an existing image — useful when a generation was made at a lower resolution than you now need, or when a source photo needs to hold up printed or displayed larger than its native size.
Like video upscaling, this enhances existing detail rather than fabricating content that was never in the original.

Upscale an image to higher resolution. Use when the user wants to increase quality, make an image larger, or enhance resolution of a generation.
What to tell the agent
Versely's agent maps this plain-English request directly onto upscale_image. You don't need to know the parameter names — just describe what you want.
“Upscale this image to a higher resolution.”
How it works
1. Supply the image
Any image_url you want enhanced — a generation, upload, or existing photo.
2. Pick a model
upscale_image requires a model parameter — ask which options are available and confirm pricing before running it.
3. Run the upscale
Versely returns a higher-resolution version of the image.
4. Check the result
Zoom into fine detail (text, faces, edges) before using the upscaled version commercially.
What it costs
Cost depends on the model selected — ask the agent for estimate_cost with your chosen model, and check_credits to confirm your balance covers it.
The formula behind that number: What does a print-resolution AI image cost? — prices the area of the canvas, so doubling both edges quadruples the charge.
Limits & things to know
- Enhances existing detail; it doesn't invent picture information the original image never had.
- Available models and their pricing vary — confirm before running.
Who uses this
- Preparing a generated image for print
- Enlarging a low-resolution source photo
- Sharpening a thumbnail or product shot before publishing
Frequently asked questions
Does upscaling fabricate new detail?+
It enhances existing detail rather than inventing new content — very low-resolution source images have a ceiling on how much genuine sharpness upscaling can add.
How much does it cost?+
It depends on the model you select — ask the agent for estimate_cost with your chosen model before running the job.
