Leonardo AI Launches Pro Upscaler for 105MP AI Image Enhancement

Leonardo.Ai releases Pro Upscaler tool designed specifically for AI-generated images, offering 105MP output with artifact correction for professional print and digital use.
Leonardo.Ai has released a specialized image upscaling tool built specifically for AI-generated content, addressing a persistent pain point for creators working with synthetic imagery. The Pro Upscaler scales AI images to 105 megapixels while actively correcting the artifacts that traditional upscalers typically amplify.
The core problem? Most upscaling tools were trained exclusively on photographs. When they encounter the unique texture patterns and synthetic grain inherent to AI-generated images, they misinterpret these elements and introduce distortions. Leonardo's solution trains specifically on AI content fingerprints.
Two Modes for Different Workflows
The tool splits into Precise and Creative modes. Precise acts as a straightforward magnifier with an optional artifact-fixing toggle—useful when your base generation is already clean. Creative mode goes further, actively rebuilding structural problems like malformed hands or distorted faces during the upscale process.
Creative mode offers three intensity levels: Subtle for light refinement, Balanced for moderate repairs, and Strong for aggressive reconstruction of problematic generations. The stronger the setting, the more liberty the AI takes in reinterpreting unclear details.
Professional Output Specifications
The 105MP ceiling covers essentially every professional use case. For digital work, that handles everything from social media posts through 8K displays. For print, it supports 300 DPI output for A1 posters and magazine spreads, while billboard applications at standard viewing distances need far less resolution—the tool delivers 52 DPI at 48-sheet highway billboard scale.
A Canva integration lets users transfer upscaled images directly into layout workflows for typography and final production edits.
Market Positioning
The release positions Leonardo.Ai as an end-to-end solution for AI image workflows—generation, editing, and now production-ready upscaling. For creators and agencies producing AI content at scale, eliminating the friction of third-party upscaling tools that weren't designed for synthetic imagery could streamline production pipelines significantly.
The tool works with uploaded photographs as well, though Leonardo recommends Precise mode with artifact correction disabled for real photos to avoid unnecessary processing.
