Enhance the quality of scanned or low-resolution PDFs using AI. Ideal for old scanned contracts, faxed documents, and receipts where text is barely readable.
Yes — upscaling scanned PDFs often improves OCR accuracy dramatically. Try upscaling first, then running OCR.
Large PDFs with many pages can take a few minutes since each page is upscaled individually. Free tier limits to 20 pages per operation.
Upscaling helps most when the PDF is made of images or scans. Text PDFs (where text is vector-based) stay the same since they are already resolution-independent.

Print shops need ~300 DPI; a screen-resolution PDF prints blurry. Upscaling ~4× lifts scans and exports to print-ready sharpness. Processing runs on our servers, so there's nothing to install and it works on any device.
Upscaling reconstructs edges and detail rather than just stretching pixels, so text and line art come out noticeably cleaner than a naive zoom.
Yes. Files are processed in an isolated worker and auto-deleted within an hour. EU servers, GDPR-compliant, never used to train AI.
