Video Enhance AI v1Topaz Labs

Topaz Labs releases Video Enhance AI, the first commercially available AI-powered video upscaling tool. Using deep learning models trained on thousands of video pairs, it can upscale footage up to 8K while adding genuine detail rather than just interpolating pixels. The tool quickly establishes Topaz Labs as the dominant player in AI video enhancement. While not a generative video tool, Video Enhance AI sets a critical foundation: when AI video models arrive years later with their low resolutions and noisy outputs, this is the tool creators will reach for to make that footage usable.
