PhotoAid's AI Image Enlarger vs Imagen

PhotoAid's AI Image Enlarger upscales photos in the browser without a software download. You upload a JPEG, WEBP, or PNG file up to 30MB or 10,000 by 10,000 pixels, pick a 1x or 2x zoom level, and the tool doubles dimensions while smoothing detail instead of leaving blocky pixels.

Standard resize tools stretch pixels and blur faces fast. PhotoAid's upscaler uses AI smoothing tuned especially for portraits, so a 1000 by 1000 px image can become 2000 by 2000 px with fewer artifacts than a basic bicubic stretch.

The enlarger is free and hosted by PhotoAiD, the same team behind passport and visa photo tools on photoaid.com. They released it as a standalone browser utility alongside their biometric photo pipeline, with multilingual site options and links back to other PhotoAid tools.

PhotoAid's AI Image Enlarger fits photographers, ecommerce sellers, and anyone who needs a quick upscale for profile shots or product images. It also helps travelers who already use PhotoAid for passport photos and want a separate enlargement step in the same ecosystem.

Imagen learns your Lightroom editing style and applies it across entire catalogs in Adobe Lightroom Classic. You build a Personal AI Profile from past edits or start with Talent AI Profiles from photographers like Taylor Jackson and Jose Villa, then batch-edit weddings, portraits, sports, and real estate shoots in minutes instead of hours.

Preset packs and manual batch syncing still eat time when every image needs different exposure tweaks. Imagen adjusts white balance, exposure, and color per photo while matching your profile, and claims 96% faster workflows with edits under half a second each. The trade-off is Lightroom Classic lock-in: this is not a standalone editor or a Capture One replacement.

Wedding, portrait, event, and real estate photographers use Imagen to cull, color-correct, mask, crop, and retouch before delivery. Pay-as-you-go starts at $0.50 per photo with a $7 monthly minimum, while the Limitless plan runs $179 per month on annual billing for unlimited solo editing and culling.
