Model guideWhy choose Topaz Image Precision
Key strengths
- Enlarges an image without reinterpreting it - the result is the same picture, larger.
- Four engines covering photographs, low-resolution sources, illustration, and text.
- The cheapest way to get a large image out of a small one.
Good fit for
- Preparing an approved image for print or a large display.
- Enlarging a thumbnail or web-sized asset back to a usable size.
- Finishing generated images above the resolution the model produced.
EnginesEngines in Topaz Image Precision
This model is a price tier: every engine below costs the same, so the choice is about the source, not the budget. Pick one in Generate under the model; leaving it unset uses the first.
- Standard V2 - Topaz's general-purpose Gigapixel model, and the right default for photographs.
- Low Resolution V2 - Built for genuinely small sources - thumbnails and web-sized images - where most models have too little to work from.
- Art & CGI - For illustration, 3D renders, and digital art, where photographic models invent skin and fabric texture that was never there.
- Text & Shapes - For documents, logos, and screenshots. Preserves glyph and edge geometry instead of smoothing it.
- High Fidelity V3 - Maximum preservation: nothing is reinterpreted. For sources already good enough that any invention would be a loss.

WorkflowUsing Topaz Image Precision
- Upload a source image or choose one from Assets in Models or Generate. You can also start from a completed image's TaskCard.
- Pick an engine matched to the source, then a scale factor.
- Review the estimate, then submit the job.
- Inspect the enhanced image when processing completes.
Best resultsHow to get better Topaz Image Precision results
- Match the engine to the source: Text & Shapes for screenshots and logos, Art & CGI for illustration, Low Resolution for thumbnails.
- Pick this over the Generative tiers whenever the output must stay faithful to the original.
- The output size is the source times your factor, capped - the exact result is shown before you submit.
LimitsLimits and availability
- Pick a scale factor, not a size: the server reads the source and derives the output, clamped to this model's ceiling.
- Billing is per output megapixel, so the factor you choose sets the price.
- Direct uploads are limited to 32 MiB; generated MachGen images can be selected from Assets or a completed TaskCard.
- Current rates come from the live MachGen pricebook.
- Topaz Image Precision is pass-through. MachGen sends the request through its upstream provider integration and returns the generated asset.
