Upscaling is the Edit Video tool that increases a video's resolution and sharpness. You provide a source video and it re-renders it at higher quality, with no prompt or extra inputs needed.

It takes your source video and produces a higher-resolution, cleaner version of it. Nothing about the content changes — it's purely a quality/resolution boost. Because of that, it's the simplest Edit Video tool: just a source video and Generate.

There are no prompts, images, or other inputs to provide.

No. Upscaling hides both the quality picker and the resolution picker, because its output settings are fixed. The bottom bar still shows the per-second cost and the video duration (with the trim button), but you won't choose a quality or resolution here. Because the cost is per second, the total scales with your clip's length; the rate is shown next to Generate and depends on your plan.

Yes — like the other Edit Video tools, you can trim the source first using the scissors button next to the duration in the bottom bar, and only that slice is upscaled.

Generate stays off until your source video has finished uploading. Once a valid video is in place, Generate becomes active; there's nothing else to configure for this tool.

In the current build there's no separate "Video upscale" entry in the mode rail — upscaling a video is this Upscaling tab inside the Edit Video hub. So when the FAQ refers to upscaling a video, it means this tool: load a source video, optionally trim it, and generate a higher-resolution version in the same flow as the other Edit Video tools.

The flow is the same — pick or upload a video, optionally trim it, and generate. No quality or resolution controls appear, matching desktop.
