Image Upscale API MCP
Increase image resolution and optionally enhance visual quality. Use the Image Upscale API via REST or MCP, or try it free in the online playground.
Image Upscale API AI Prompts & Use Cases
After connecting this MCP tool to your AI assistant, you can ask the questions below. Replace bracketed placeholders with your own inputs and use the supported values in Arguments.
New to Nexscope MCP? Follow the connection guide, then use the prompts below. The Integration and Parameters & Response tabs contain the connection steps, call example, and technical reference.
1. Enlarge A Product Image
Prompt: Upscale [product image] by [factor from 1 to 4, including decimals] with quality enhancement switched off. Preserve its subject and inspect the completed result before using it in a listing.
2. Enhance While Enlarging
Prompt: Upscale [product image] by [factor from 1 to 4, including decimals] with quality enhancement enabled. Inspect the completed image for unwanted changes to product details before using it in a listing.
3. Compare Detail Fidelity With Enhancement On And Off
Prompt: Upscale [product image] at [the same factor between 1 and 4] in two requests: one with quality enhancement off and one with it on. Compare the completed outputs for edges, small text and product details before choosing an image. Do not claim enhancement reconstructs factual details absent from the source.
What You Need to Provide
Provide assets you may use and that meet this tool’s documented file, dimension and count limits.
A pending task is not a completed image, video or text result. Retrieve the existing task rather than submitting a duplicate.
