- Released or updated
- not established
Maximum resolution and supported aspect ratios are not established here. That means no page we could retrieve stated them, not that the model lacks them.
Strengths
- Published upscale factors up to 16x
- Prompt guidance gives real control over what detail is invented
- Transparent per-output-size API pricing in euros
Weaknesses
- Hallucinates detail by design, so faces and text can drift from source
- No maximum output resolution or pixel ceiling published
- Image-only endpoint; no dedicated video upscaling endpoint is listed in the API docs
Best for
- Upscaling AI-generated or low-detail stills
- Adding texture to key art and thumbnails
- High-volume image enhancement via API
Where the sources disagree
Recorded rather than resolved. Picking the tidier number would hide the fact that the vendor's own pages do not agree.
- The Magnific pricing page advertises a 'Magnific Image & Video Upscaler', but the API documentation index lists only image upscaler endpoints (Creative and Precision) with no video upscaling endpoint. Whether video upscaling exists as an in-app-only feature could not be verified.
What to understand before using it

Shotcraft hosts no sample output. Judging a model means watching its own showreel with your own eyes, and a clip re-hosted here would be a clip we chose.
