Upframe - AI Video Enhancer & Upscaler for Mac

Videos lose a lot on the way to you. A clip sent through a messaging app comes back blurry and blocky, a zoomed-in shot turns soft, an older video looks small on today's screens. Upframe brings back the detail, right on your device.

Available on macOS
Rebuilt, Not Stretched

Sharper, up to 4K

On-device AI rebuilds fine detail and clean edges instead of simply stretching the picture. Choose 1080p, 1440p or 4K.

Smoother motion and slow motion
Turn a 30 fps video into a smooth 60 fps, or slow a moment down up to 8 times, with new frames made in between.

Private by design
Everything happens on your device. No uploads, no account, no credits to count, and it works offline. Your originals are never changed.

Drop in any video

Choose a video and Upframe recognises what it is, then picks the right enhancement for it. MOV, MP4 or MKV, from your Mac or an external drive.

Ready-made settings for each kind
A clip that came through a chat needs cleaning up, a screen recording needs crisp text and edges. Upframe knows the difference.

Or set everything yourself
Switch to Advanced for quality, size, aspect ratio, detail and motion.

Smoother Motion

Sharper and smoother at once

Up to 4K and 60 fps in a single pass. Upframe makes the in-between frames, so motion looks fluid on today's screens and the length stays the same.

Know how long it takes
Before you start, Upframe shows the result size, the frame rate and roughly how long the enhancement will take.

Slow Motion

Slow motion that stays smooth

Slow a moment down up to 8 times, with new frames made in between instead of the same frame repeated. A dive that is over in a blink becomes a moment you can actually watch.

Play a clip of up to 15 seconds forward, then backward, for a loop that never seems to end.

FAQ

Questions, answered

The things people ask before they download.

What does Upframe do?

Upframe is an AI video enhancer for Mac. It brings back the detail videos lose on the way to you - a clip that came back blurry and blocky from a messaging app, a zoomed-in shot that turned soft, an older video that looks small on today's screens - and makes it sharp, up to 4K. It can also make motion smoother at 60 fps or slow a moment down.

How does Upframe choose the right enhancement?

Choose a video and Upframe recognises what it is: an everyday clip from your phone, a video that came through a chat, a zoomed-in shot, a screen recording or a clip made with AI. It picks the right enhancement for it. You can also set the quality, size, aspect ratio, detail and motion yourself.

Are my videos uploaded anywhere?

No. Everything happens on your Mac. No uploads, no account, no credits to count, and it works offline. Your originals are never changed.

Which video formats does Upframe support?

Upframe opens MOV, MP4 and MKV videos from your Mac or an external drive, and saves in HEVC (H.265), H.264 or ProRes, ready for Photos and editing apps. HDR is kept, and the date, the place and the camera details stay with the enhanced video.

Can Upframe make a video smoother or slow motion?

Yes. Turn a 30 fps video into a smooth 60 fps, or slow a moment down 2, 4 or 8 times, with new frames made in between. You can also make a short clip play forward and then backward with Bounce.

Is Upframe free?

Upframe is free to try with Fast, a quick result up to 1080p, and Bounce. Upframe Pro unlocks the AI enhancement up to 4K, smoother motion, slow motion and batches, as a monthly or yearly subscription or a one-time purchase.
