UpSynth is an AI-powered image enhancement and upscaling platform that runs entirely in the browser. It combines three core tools—Upscale, Restore, and Modify—into a seamless editor, allowing users to improve image resolution, repair damaged or distorted areas, and make selective content changes using natural language prompts. Unlike one-click upscalers, UpSynth emphasizes user control: you can mark specific regions, adjust a 'magic' value to dictate how creative the AI should be, and step back at any time. The Upscale tool intelligently enlarges images while reducing artifacts and noise, preserving important structures and the original character. The Restore tool lets you selectively reconstruct areas that were misinterpreted or distorted, minimizing creative liberties, which is ideal for faces, old photos, and sensitive details. The Modify tool enables you to mark an area and describe desired changes via a prompt, generating multiple variants to choose from. UpSynth is designed for a wide range of visual content, including old photos, illustrations, artworks, landscape and wedding photos, designs, drawings, portraits, movie posters, and game graphics. It is particularly suited for preparing low-resolution scans or retro motifs for print or web use. The platform offers a free first upscale, with further usage subject to its pricing model.

Problem solved
Traditional upscaling often introduces unintended changes, such as distorted faces or misinterpreted details, and forces users to restart the entire process when something goes wrong. UpSynth solves this by providing controllable, selective enhancement: users can refine specific areas, restore content true to the original, and modify elements according to prompts, all within a single browser-based workflow, reducing the guesswork and rework associated with AI image enhancement.
