Overview

Krea Enhance upscales and enhances photos, renders and AI-generated images. You pick a scale from 1x up to 16x. Sliders set how much detail the AI invents, how close it stays to the original, and how clear and sharp the result is. A prompt box lets you describe the image to steer it. It guesses missing detail and cannot recover what was never in the shot.

It runs in the browser and as an iPhone app, with no Android app. A free account covers four enhances every 24 hours, at scales up to 4x. Paid plans are monthly subscriptions that add the 8x and 16x scales, more usage and commercial rights.

When to use

Use Krea Enhance when an image needs more resolution:

  • You have a blurry, compressed or low-resolution photo.
  • You want AI art or a 3D render upscaled for print or web.
  • You want to set how much detail the AI invents rather than take one fixed pass.

When NOT to use

Skip Krea Enhance if any of these describe you:

  • You need exact lost detail or text recovered. This is a creative guess, not a forensic fix.
  • You want a manual enhancer with layers and masks. A photo enhancer gives finer control.
  • You need commercial rights without paying. Free-plan outputs are not licensed for commercial use.

Frequently asked questions

A free account covers four enhances every 24 hours, at scales up to 4x. You can also run a 2x enhance without an account at all. Paid plans are monthly subscriptions that add the 8x and 16x scales, more usage and commercial rights.

Krea runs in the browser and as an iPhone app. There is no Android app, so Android users work through the mobile browser. Processing happens on Krea's servers in every version, so the app needs a connection.

The scales are 1x, 2x, 4x, 8x and 16x. A free account goes up to 4x, and 8x and 16x need a paid plan. There is also a quality setting with a standard and a high option, and the high option needs you to be signed in.

It can improve moderately blurry or compressed images by reconstructing detail, but it cannot recover information that was never captured. Images that are small but relatively sharp give the model the most to work from.

Krea's pricing page puts commercial rights on the paid plans. Images enhanced on the free plan are not licensed for commercial use.
