Photoshop plugin
Fix tiny, blurry artwork before it hits the press.
HiRez rebuilds low-resolution logos and graphics into clean, larger files, right inside Photoshop. Select a layer, press one button, keep working.
Works with Photoshop 2022 (version 23.3) and newer.
Real HiRez output. The source was a 160 x 160 JPEG of a made-up logo, the result is 640 x 640. Drag to compare.
Three steps, no settings maze
The panel lives next to your layers. Pick what kind of image it is, pick a size, and go. Presets for Logo, Photo and Web image set it all in one tap.
Select a layer
Click the low-res logo or graphic in your document. HiRez works on the layer you have selected.
Choose a mode
Graphic for logos, text and flat art. Photo for everything with texture and gradients.
Press Process Image
The upscaled result lands in your document as a new layer in a few seconds, ready to place, trace or send to print.
Built for real files, not just clean demos
Logos come with transparent backgrounds, customer art comes in batches, and some files are huge. HiRez handles all of that without extra steps.
Transparent backgrounds
Cut-out logos keep their transparency, with no dark or white fringes around the edges. Prefer a solid background? One switch puts the result on white.
Big images, no fuss
Layers up to about 4000 x 4000 pixels are split into pieces, upscaled, and stitched back together without visible seams.
Batch several layers
Select more than one layer and press the button once. Each layer is upscaled in turn and a failed one never stops the rest.
Lands in your document
The result comes back as a new layer, or as a Smart Object that covers the same area as the original while keeping every extra pixel inside.
Replace the original
Swap the low-res layer for the upscaled one in a single step. It keeps the layer's name and position, and Ctrl+Z brings the old one back.
Exact output size
Need a 3000 px logo for a print template? Type the size and HiRez resizes the result so the longest side matches.
Clean up JPEG damage
Smooth out speckle and halos from heavy compression before upscaling, so the AI doesn't blow those flaws up along with the picture. It softens noise, it won't repair big visible blocks.
Vector copy (SVG)
Turn on one switch and HiRez also saves an SVG traced from the upscaled result. It works best on flat logos with a few colors.
Preview and control
See a before and after right in the panel, watch your monthly usage in a small meter, and cancel a long job whenever you like.
Each picture is an illustration of how the option behaves, using a made-up logo. The clean-up and SVG panels run HiRez's own processing on that logo.
Two modes, built for different artwork
Logos and photos break in different ways, so HiRez treats them differently.
Graphic
Rebuilds hard edges, lettering and flat color so a soft, pixelated logo comes back crisp. This is the mode for shirt designs, stickers, signs and anything with clean shapes.
Photo
A general-purpose upscaler with 2x, 3x and 4x options. Use it for photos, textures and artwork with gradients and fine detail.
Made for people who get bad files every day
Customers send screenshots, social media logos and 150 pixel JPEGs. HiRez gives you something you can actually print.
Print shops and decorators
Clean up customer art in seconds instead of redrawing it or sending it back.
Designers and freelancers
Rescue an old client logo, a tiny stock image or a compressed asset without leaving Photoshop.
Online sellers
Make artwork large enough for print-on-demand and marketplace uploads that demand high resolution.

One upscale is one image. Very large layers are split into pieces and count as one upscale for every 4 pieces. Unused upscales don't roll over.
Questions
Which version of Photoshop do I need?
Photoshop 2022 (version 23.3) or newer.
What happens to my images?
Your selected layer is sent over an encrypted connection to HiRez's processing server, passed to an AI upscaling service (fal.ai), and the result comes straight back to Photoshop. HiRez does not save your images on its servers. See the privacy page for details.
Is there a size limit?
A layer can be up to about 4000 x 4000 pixels (16 megapixels). Anything over about 2000 x 2000 is split into pieces automatically and stitched back together.
Do I need an internet connection?
Yes. The upscaling happens on a server, so Photoshop needs to be online while you process a layer.
How big is the result?
In the test above, a 160 x 160 image came back at 640 x 640, four times larger in each direction. Photo mode lets you choose 2x, 3x or 4x, or type an exact size in pixels for the longest side.
What counts as an upscale?
One image processed is one upscale. Large layers are split into pieces, and every 4 pieces count as one upscale. Your plan includes 250 a month, and the panel shows how many you have used.
Can I use it on more than one computer?
Yes, one license works on up to 3 computers.
Does it keep transparent backgrounds?
Yes. Transparent areas stay transparent, with clean edges. You can switch that off to put the result on a white background.
Can it fix a badly compressed JPEG?
The clean-up option smooths speckle and halos from compression before upscaling, which helps a lot on mildly damaged files. It will not rebuild heavy, blocky damage.
Who makes HiRez?
HiRez is built by The Gridline Company, a small studio in West Covina, California.
