NextGenUp
Upscale photos to 8K and video to 4K, locally and free
NextGenUp upscales photos to 8K and videos to 4K with Real-ESRGAN AI, entirely on your machine. Face restoration, batch processing, and a before/after slider. Free, open source, no cloud, no watermark. macOS, Windows, and Linux.
Hi Product Hunt! Maker here.
NextGenUp is a free, open source AI upscaler for both images and video. It uses Real-ESRGAN for upscaling and GFPGAN for face restoration, and everything runs locally on your machine. Nothing you upscale is ever uploaded anywhere.
What it does: photos up to 8K, video up to 4K, a same-size Enhance mode that removes blur and JPEG artifacts without resizing, batch processing with zip export, and a before/after slider on every result.
Desktop apps for macOS, Windows and Linux with everything bundled, so there is no Python or FFmpeg setup. You can also self-host it and use it from any browser on your network.
It is MIT licensed and free forever. I would love your feedback, and feature requests are very welcome.
