#2These image upscalers always seem to remove noise in ways that make the result look terrible. You should be adding reasonable texture, not smearing surfaces in vaseline.

This is especially obvious for the Machu Picchu image where the cobble stone walls are turned into different walls.

They're using established open source models and code, just under their own web UI. Specifically Real-ESRGAN for the upscaling, and Codeformer for the face enhancements, which is what most people are doing. Though my company is using GFPGAN for the facial enhancements at the moment.
"AI Image Enhancement" websites are all using the same stuff.

So? They both use bootstrap and they're made by the same people with the same contact information and company name and everything.

#7This website is just a wrapper around https://github.com/brycedrennan/imaginAIry which is a wrapper around various neural networks, e.g. https://github.com/xinntao/Real-ESRGAN in this case.

#8The upscaled Mickey Mouse image does look "better" to my eyes, but the other 3 examples on the homepage, particularly Machu Pichu, look worse. The original owl on grass looks like a composite image, so it's difficult to discern what to even expect as "better".

#9Your automatic italian localization is incredibly bad.
Examples: "Stiamo usando un fork dell'immaginazione per alimentare la nostra intelligenza artificiale, e il nostro progetto è sviluppato con Django per il sito web." -> "We are using a fork of imagination for feeding our artificial intelligence, and our project is developed with Django for the website".
"Migliora le tue foto, cartoni animati, immagini e più facilmente e rapidamente utilizzando l'intelligenza artificiale" -> "Improve your pics, cartoons, images and easier and faster using AI"
"Aumento della scala delle immagini" -> "Increase in the scale [alternative reading: in the staircase/ladder] of images"
I haven't read your term of services, but I'm not sure they should be left to the same automatic translation; give them in English, or at least make sure you say that the English version is binding and the automatic translation is provided "for convenience only". Not a lawyer at all, but if this was my website I would write something like this before the translated ToS: "La versione vincolante dei termini di servizio è quella originale in lingua inglese [link to ENG version]; questa versione in italiano è tradotta in maniera automatica e pertanto può contenere inesattezze. La versione italiana non ha alcuna valenza legale, ed è fornita unicamente per comodità."

You are just jealous of the Machu Picchu super lawn.
But seriously, I think this is much harder to do and probably a second step after the edges are defined.
