Icons8 Smart Upscaler review

Icons8 Smart Upscaler is a browser tool for enlarging images in bulk. You can drop up to 500 JPG, PNG or WebP files at once, each up to 5 MB, and get results up to 7680x7680 pixels. Icons8 says its model was trained on more than 5 million images and that a face upscaler now runs under the hood. Pricing is listed in plain dollars: a prepaid pack of 50 images costs $10 and can be used anytime, a limited subscription gives 100 images a month for $9 with rollover credits, and an unlimited plan costs $99 a month. Free results carry a watermark. Icons8 recommends images smaller than 3000x3000 pixels, so it suits web graphics, thumbnails and old small photos more than large camera files. Mac users can use GoProd, a desktop app that combines upscaling and background removal, and developers can use the API. We compared documented features and published prices.
