About ScaleUp

ScaleUp, developed by vimager, adds AI‑based upscaling directly inside Adobe After Effects and Premiere Pro on Windows 10/11 and macOS 10.15 or later. The plugin enlarges video up to ten times with minimal quality loss by applying a neural network that restores texture, reduces compression artifacts, and minimizes noise. Users can choose between Sharp mode, which enhances realistic detail, and Cartoon mode, which preserves edges in animated content. All processing runs on a compatible GPU through Vulkan 1.1; Intel integrated graphics are unsupported. A GPU with at least 3 GB of VRAM is sufficient for HD footage, while larger memory is advisable for UHD or higher resolutions. The interface provides one‑click upscaling within the host applications.
