How do you enhance AI images privately?

To enhance AI art or photos privately, upload the image to Kenerate AI's enhancer and pick an engine: it upscales to 8K or 128 MP, reads no prompt, adds no content filter of its own and keeps results in your private history. Downloads have no watermark. You still need the rights to the image.

How it works

How to upscale an AI image privately

No prompt, no gallery, no watermark.

Time needed
Steps
3 steps
  1. Step 1

    Upload the image

    Add an AI render, artwork or photo — JPG, PNG or WEBP up to 25 MB. There is no prompt to write and nothing to describe.

  2. Step 2

    Pick an engine

    Real-ESRGAN or Image Upscaler to 4K/8K keep the image exactly as it is. Clarity Pro adds new fine detail; Recraft Creative refines skin and fabric texture.

  3. Step 3

    Download privately

    The result is saved to your private history — not a public feed — and downloads with no watermark.

What does “uncensored” mean here?

  • No content filter added by Kenerate. The upscaler doesn't read a prompt and doesn't sort images by subject — it only makes them bigger and sharper.
  • Private by default. Uploads and results go to your own history, not a public feed or community gallery.
  • Your rights, your rules. You need the rights to what you upload and must follow the Terms: nothing illegal and no real people without their consent.

Looking for the general tool for everyday photos? See the AI image enhancer. For engine picks by art style — Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, 3D or watercolour — see enhance AI art.

FAQ

Enhance AI questions

Is this AI image enhancer uncensored?

Kenerate does not add a content filter of its own to the upscaler: it does not read a prompt and does not block images by subject. You still need the rights to the image and must follow the Terms — nothing illegal, and no real people without their consent.

Are my images private?

Yes. Uploads and results are saved to your own private history so you can download them again; they are not posted to a public gallery.

Link to this answer

Can I upscale AI art from Stable Diffusion or Midjourney?

Yes. Renders at 512–1024 px are exactly what the upscaler is for. In our example a 512 px fantasy render came out at 5461 × 3072 with the Ultimate upscaler.

Which engine keeps my image exactly the same?

Real-ESRGAN and Image Upscaler are faithful: they add pixels and sharpen without repainting. Clarity Pro and Recraft Creative are creative and can change small details.

Link to this answer

Can it fix AI artefacts like bad hands?

No. An upscaler sharpens and enlarges; it does not redraw anatomy. For that, edit the image in Edit Studio with AI Edit and then upscale.

Is it free?

New accounts get free credits on sign-up to test it, with no watermark; bigger jobs use one-time credit packs that never expire.

In depth

What an AI enhancer does to AI art

Faithful upscalers, generative ones and face restorers — what each changes in your image, with sources.

Faithful upscalers keep the render as generated

Real-ESRGAN was trained on synthetic blur, noise, resizing and JPEG damage so it can clean up real-world images without repainting them [1]. It is open source (BSD-3-Clause) and has a lighter model tuned for anime [2]. That is why it is the default here: a 512 px render comes back bigger and cleaner, but still the image you generated.
