Magnific AI Upscaler: Bring More Detail to Your Images
01 · Detail
Raise resolution without starting over
The image upscaler enlarges photos, renders and AI drafts. Classic upscales to 2K or 4K. The Magnific model offers 2×, 4×, 8× and 16× scaling with output up to 10K, and the official upscaler page marks that model as Premium+ only.
02 · Creative control
Decide how much it invents
Precision-style upscaling keeps close to the original. Creative upscaling adds plausible new texture, steered by settings such as:
- Creativity
- How much new detail the model may invent.
- Resemblance
- How closely the result follows your source image.
- HDR
- How much fine definition is added per area.
03 · Output review
Check before you publish
Creative upscaling generates detail. The result is the model's interpretation, not a recovery of information the original never captured. Check text, faces, logos and product details at 100% zoom before you publish.
Image creation · Text to image
Create Images with Magnific One and the AI Image Generator
Start from a text prompt or a reference image and choose from the available models. Magnific One adds art direction and an optional Brand Kit, so brand visuals and product photography can follow your colors, style and identity.

Edit the Image. Shape the Light.
The AI photo editor handles everyday fixes: background removal, retouching, image expansion for wider framing, and camera changes. Relight is an AI lighting editor that re-lights a finished image instead of reshooting it.

AI video generator · Video upscaler
Turn Ideas and Images into Video with Magnific
The AI video generator handles text to video and image to video, so you can describe motion or animate a still. Model availability, duration, resolution and credit cost vary. The video upscaler is a separate step for existing footage: Magnific documents output up to Ultra HD 4K at 60 fps, using Topaz, Magnific or Sharper Pro models.
Image to 3D · 3D Scenes
From Reference Image to 3D Model and Scene
3D Generator
The AI 3D model generator turns image references into 3D models you can export as GLB, which is useful for product visualization.
3D Scenes
A separate workflow for building environments: place objects, control the camera, and capture images, much like a virtual photoshoot. Read the 3D Scenes docs ↗
Audio
AI Voice, Music and Sound Effects
Add narration with the AI voice generator, or create music and sound effects for your videos without leaving the platform. Hear official samples ↗

Connect Your Creative Workflow in Magnific Spaces
Spaces, formerly Freepik Spaces, is a collaborative node-based canvas. You connect tools into an AI workflow, keep each step visible, and reuse it across briefs with your team.

Stock library
Explore Freepik's Creative Library on Magnific
The stock catalog you knew as Freepik now lives on Magnific. It includes Freepik vectors, photos, illustrations, icons, templates, PSDs and video. Each resource has its own license terms, so check them before commercial use.

Manga Illustrations, Icons and Vector Symbols
For comic and anime-style art, the library includes manga illustrations, comic design resources, icons and vector symbols. Spanish-speaking designers often search for these as símbolos (or simbolos without the accent).
You can also produce original manga-style art with the image tools, then build panels, badges and interface elements from licensed resources.
Which Magnific Tool Fits Your Task?
Start from the job, not the tool list. Each row says what the tool changes and what to check before you publish the output.

| Create a new image or brand visual | AI Image Generator, Magnific One | Creates new images from text or a reference. Brand Kit guides colors and style. | Brand accuracy, and your rights to any reference you upload |
| Fix or re-light an existing photo | Photo Editor, Relight | Removes backgrounds, retouches, expands framing, changes lighting | Edges, shadows, and whether the edit misrepresents a product |
| Turn a still or prompt into a clip | Video Generator | Generates motion and camera moves. Length and resolution depend on the model. | Motion artifacts, hands, on-screen text |
| Improve existing footage | Video Upscaler | Resolution up to 4K and frame rate up to 60 fps, depending on the model | Flicker, over-sharpening, and whether the footage license allows modification |
| Make a 3D asset | 3D Generator, 3D Scenes | Builds a GLB model from image references. Scenes composes and captures environments. | Geometry, scale and texture seams |
| Repeat a multi-step process | Spaces | Chains tools on a shared node-based canvas | Each node's settings and credit cost before running a batch |

Starting workflows
Image enhancement
Upscale with a faithful setting first. Switch to Creative only when you want new detail, then Relight if needed and review at 100% zoom.
Video
Generate or upload, then cut your edit. Upscale last, so you don't spend credits on footage you'll trim.
3D
Use a clean, single-object reference on a plain background. Generate, export GLB, then stage it in 3D Scenes.
Team production
Build the chain in Spaces, name each node, and test on one input before you run a batch.
Magnific Plans and Credits: Where to Start
Every AI action uses credits. Cost depends on the tool, model, resolution and duration, and some features are limited to higher plans. The official pricing page is the only reliable source for current prices.
Image upscaling
The upscaler page marks the 10K Magnific upscaler as Premium+ only. Batches take up to 20 images, or 2 on the free tier.
Video
Generation cost and limits vary by model. Upscaling output goes up to 4K and 60 fps, within the limits of your plan.
3D and Spaces
Each generation and each node you run consumes credits, so test on a single input before batching.
Legacy magnific.ai
magnific.ai plans are separate from magnific.com plans and don't carry over.
Magnific and Freepik FAQ
What is Magnific?
Magnific is a creative platform at magnific.com. It combines AI tools for images, video, audio and 3D with a stock library of photos, vectors, illustrations, icons, templates and more.
Is Freepik now Magnific?
Yes. Freepik has rebranded as Magnific, and its AI tools and stock library are now on magnific.com. Magnific explains the change at magnific.com/freepik.
How does magnific.com differ from the legacy magnific.ai?
magnific.ai was a standalone upscaler service, and it now serves existing customers. magnific.com is the full platform. Accounts, plans and billing are separate, so use the current magnific.com pricing page rather than older magnific.ai plans.
What is Magnific One?
Magnific One is an image-creation workflow with art direction and an optional Brand Kit. You start with drafts, choose a final image, and keep editing from there.
What can the image upscaler change?
It enlarges images and can add or sharpen detail. Creativity sets how much it invents, and Resemblance sets how faithfully it follows your source. Treat creative results as interpretations, and review fine details before you publish.
Can I create videos and 3D models?
Yes. The Video Generator supports text to video and image to video, and the Video Upscaler enhances existing footage. The 3D Generator creates GLB models from image references, and 3D Scenes lets you compose and capture environments.
How do credits and plan limits work?
AI actions use credits. Which tools you can access, and what each action costs, depend on your plan and the model you choose. The official pricing page has the current details.
What licensing applies to generated content and stock assets?
They are covered by different terms. Stock resources carry their own licenses, and some uses may require attribution. Generated content follows Magnific's terms for AI output. Review the current terms and each asset's license before commercial use.
How does this page earn affiliate commission?

Can Magnific help with visuals for a lector manga project?
For design, yes. If you're building a lector manga (manga reader) interface or a related creative project, you can create original manga-style illustrations with the image tools and use licensed icons and symbols from the library. Magnific is not a manga-reading service and has no connection to any service called Lector Manga.
