These 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.

#13Your 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 facil…
The term of service are in English, anyway.

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.

This is especially obvious for the Machu Picchu image where the cobble stone walls are turned into different walls. Original: https://imageupscalerai.com/static/images/test-machupicchu.j... Upscaled: https://imageupscalerai.com/static/images/result-machupicchu...

If you want to provide good upscaling results you need to use a latent scaler but these are compute intensive so the easier way is to just blow it through a gan like here.
