AI GIF upscaler

GIF Upscaler: make a small or blurry GIF bigger and clearer

Make a small or blurry loop larger and cleaner, so it holds up on slides, product pages and social feeds. The motion keeps its original rhythm.

  • Free to start
  • One reference image is enough
  • GIF output

After sign-in, generation uses your Felo quota. A clean reference frame gives the sharpest result.

At a glance

A GIF upscaler makes a small or soft loop larger with cleaner edges and more visible detail. The AI redraws the animation at a bigger size from one reference frame, which adds detail the original file never had. The manual workspace resizes an existing GIF exactly, without inventing pixels.

How to upscale a GIF with AI

Load a clear frame, describe how large and how sharp the loop should look, then generate the larger GIF.

  1. 1

    Add a reference frame

    Pick the clearest frame at the size you want to improve.

  2. 2

    Describe the size and the detail

    Say how large the loop should look, and which details should stay sharp.

  3. 3

    Generate and compare

    Sign in to run the model, download the GIF and compare it with the original at the same display size.

GIF upscaler prompts to try

Try a 2× redraw, line-art or pixel prompt; each one asks for the size and the detail level.

  • 2x clean redraw GIFGIFReference image
    01

    2x clean redraw

    Twice the size with sharper edges and the same poses.

    Prompt

    Using the uploaded frame as the reference, redraw the animation at twice the size with clean, sharp edges and the same silhouette in every frame. Keep colors, proportions and camera angle identical, and do not add or remove objects.

  • Line-art sticker GIFGIFReference image
    02

    Line-art sticker

    A soft sketch becomes a crisp sticker with a readable outline.

    Prompt

    Using the uploaded frame as the reference, redraw the loop as a clean line-art sticker at a larger size. Use even stroke weight, solid fills and a clear outline around the subject. Keep the original motion and pose, and remove paper texture and background noise.

  • Pixel-style upscale GIFGIFReference image
    03

    Pixel-style upscale

    Small pixel art enlarged with crisp blocks instead of blur.

    Prompt

    Using the uploaded frame as the reference, upscale the pixel art by a clean integer factor so every block stays sharp and square. Keep the palette, sprite shape and animation timing unchanged, and do not smooth the edges into blur. If the source is a single frame, animate one short action and return to the first pose so the GIF loops.

GIF upscaler use cases

Use a larger loop on projector screens, product pages and social posts that stretch a small file.

  • Projector and slide decks

    A small reaction GIF on a big screen needs more pixels to stay readable.

  • Product and landing pages

    A loop shown at full column width looks soft when it was made at 320 pixels wide.

  • Social reposts

    A larger master version survives the compression that chat apps and feeds apply.

Felo vs. a classic GIF editor

A classic editor rearranges frames you already have. Felo draws new frames from what you describe.

Starting point
Felo: One sentence, plus a photo or GIF when the tool asks for one
Classic GIF editor: A video clip or a folder of frames
Making the motion
Felo: The model draws each frame from your description
Classic GIF editor: You trim, crop and time frames by hand
Changing the style
Felo: Rewrite the prompt: pixel art, clay, line art or photo
Classic GIF editor: Filters on the footage you already have
Words in the loop
Felo: Name the words in the prompt, then check spelling at full size
Classic GIF editor: A typed overlay placed on top of the frames
Setup
Felo: Runs in the browser after sign-in
Classic GIF editor: Often a desktop or phone app to install

Resize an existing GIF exactly

The manual workspace resizes an existing GIF frame by frame in the browser and keeps its original timing.

How to check an upscaled GIF

Compare the result with the original at the same display size, then check faces, text and edges.

  1. 1

    Detail that was invented

    An AI redraw adds pixels, not recovered data. Check faces, logos and text frame by frame for changed detail.

  2. 2

    Frames and motion

    The loop should keep the same poses and timing. A dropped frame shows up as a stutter.

  3. 3

    Edges and transparency

    Soft edges can gain halos. Check the result on a light and a dark background.

  4. 4

    File size

    Doubling width and height multiplies the pixel count, and the GIF grows with it. Check the upload limit of the app you use.

Post it wherever GIFs play

A GIF needs no player or plug-in, so one file works in chat, docs and email.

  • Discord
  • Slack
  • WhatsApp
  • Telegram
  • X
  • Reddit

Free to start: credits and upscale limits

You can draft a prompt at no cost; each generated upscale counts against your Felo quota.

  • Free to start

    Draft the prompt and pick your frame for free; nothing runs until you send it.

  • What uses quota

    Every generated loop is a new run on your Felo account, including retries.

  • File and format limits

    Output is a GIF with 256 colors and no audio. Large frames take longer to generate.

GIF upscaler questions and answers

How does a GIF upscaler work?

Add one reference frame, describe the larger version you want, then generate and download the GIF. The AI redraws the loop at a bigger size.

Does AI upscaling keep my frames exactly?

No. The AI redraws the loop from one frame, so poses and details can shift between passes. The browser workspace resizes the existing file exactly.

Will the GIF look sharper?

Often yes, because the redraw creates clean edges at the new size. It cannot recover detail the original never recorded.

How much bigger can it get?

You describe the target size in the prompt and the model returns a larger GIF. Very large loops take longer and produce heavier files.

Is it free?

Drafting a prompt is free; each generation uses your Felo quota. The local resize runs in the browser without quota.

Which file do I get?

A GIF with a 256-color palette and no audio. Compare the download with the original at the same display size before publishing.
