EnhancePhoto is a browser-based AI photo enhancer that improves clarity, sharpens soft detail, and doubles image dimensions through either a free local preview or credit-based Standard AI processing.
What is EnhancePhoto?
EnhancePhoto is an online photo enhancement tool that runs in modern browsers on desktop, tablet, and mobile. It accepts JPG, PNG, and WebP images up to 10 MB, then produces an enhanced version you can compare side-by-side with the original and download. The tool offers a free Local/Quick Enhance route that processes the file inside your browser, a Standard AI route that uses Real-ESRGAN for 2x detail recovery and uploads the image to a processing provider, and a Pro route for stronger processing. It is made by EnhancePhoto at enhancephoto.org and requires no app installation.
Key Features
Dual enhancement routes — Local/Quick Enhance runs entirely in the browser for free; Standard sends the image to an AI provider using Real-ESRGAN for stronger 2x detail recovery.
Category modes — General, Portrait, Object, Scenery, Pets, and Text categories guide the workflow; Portrait mode adds face-aware enhancement with Standard.
Format and size support — Accepts JPG, PNG, and WebP files up to 10 MB; Quick Enhance can export PNG, JPG, or WebP, while Standard uses the provider's native output format.
Before-and-after comparison — Displays the original beside the enhanced result so you can judge clarity, edge detail, lighting, and texture before downloading.
Credit-based processing — Standard costs 2 credits per image, with the charge shown before processing starts; new users receive 2 free AI credits per day that reset at 00:00 UTC+8.
Watermark rules — Quick Enhance exports are watermark-free; AI-enhanced downloads are watermark-free when your paid balance is positive and include a small enhancephoto.org mark at zero paid balance.
Local privacy option — Local/Quick Enhance never uploads the file; only Standard and Pro routes upload to the processing provider after you start the run.
2x upscaling — Standard doubles source dimensions, so a 2000 x 1500 image becomes 4000 x 3000, reaching 4K-class width while preserving aspect ratio.
