WaifuXL

WaifuXL is a specialized tool designed for upscaling images and GIFs. It leverages advanced algorithms to provide superior results compared to the traditional waifu2x upscaler. The website has been fully rewritten for optimized performance and a better user experience.

This tool allows users to easily upload and process their chosen images or GIFs, resulting in enhanced visual quality. Recent updates have focused on increasing upsampling speed, delivering quicker processing times.

waifu2x

waifu2x leverages Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) to perform single-image super-resolution. It is primarily designed to enhance the quality and resolution of anime-style artwork and scans, but it also provides support for processing standard photographs. The tool focuses on intelligently upscaling images while offering options to reduce noise artifacts, resulting in clearer and more detailed outputs.

Users can customize the process by selecting the image style (Artwork, Artwork/Scans, Photo), applying a specific level of noise reduction (ranging from None to Highest), and choosing an upscaling factor (1.6x, 2x, or 4x). The tool operates within defined limits: a maximum file size of 5MB, resolution limits of 3000x3000px for noise reduction, and 1500x1500px for upscaling. Processed images can be downloaded in either PNG or WebP format.
