Gigapixel Try it →Watch full video →Curious Refuge · Jan 2026

Demo summary

A walkthrough of the Topaz Gigapixel desktop application showing how to adjust multiplication factors, pixel density (DPI), and model settings like 'high-fidelity' and 'standard'.

Step-by-step

Drag and drop the base asset into Gigapixel
Select a multiplication factor or click the custom icon for maximum resolution
Adjust the pixel density (DPI) to your desired setting
Select an AI model such as High-fidelity or Standard
Adjust the Sharpen, De-noise, and Fix Compression sliders
Use the preview slider to compare the before and after in real time
Click the Export button to save the image to your computer

Options

Set pixel density to 300 PPI for high-detail printing
Choose between different AI models like High-fidelity or Standard based on the specific output needed

Tips

Use High-fidelity and Standard models for most use cases
Turn Sharpen, De-noise, and Fix Compression as low as possible to stay true to the original reference imagery
