What the tool actually does to your video
Deblocks compression squares
Smooths the hard block edges that low-bitrate encoding leaves behind, without wiping out real edges.
Reduces noise and grain
A temporal denoiser compares neighbouring frames so noise calms down but faces and textures stay.
Upscales to HD
Enlarges with a Lanczos filter, up to 1080p on the short side, keeping portrait and landscape correct.
Sharpens carefully
Adaptive sharpening restores edge contrast after enlarging, with no crunchy halos.
Repairs damaged files
Broken indexes, truncated recordings and glitchy frames go through an automatic repair ladder first.
Keeps your audio
Sound is carried over and the final file is optimised for fast start on the web and phones.
Honest limits: compression throws data away permanently. We make video cleaner, bigger and easier to watch. We cannot invent a face that was never recorded. Read why videos get pixelated to see what is realistic for your clip.

Frequently asked questions
How do I fix a pixelated video?
Upload it here, wait for the free preview, and compare before and after. The tool removes compression blocks and noise, enlarges the picture with a high-quality resampling filter and sharpens it. If you like the preview, you can download the full video in HD.
Why is my video pixelated?
The usual causes are a very low bitrate, repeated compression by chat apps and social media, upscaling from a small resolution, digital zoom, or a damaged file. Our guide on why videos get pixelated helps you tell which one you have.
Can a pixelated video really be restored?
It can be made much cleaner, but detail that was never recorded cannot be recovered. Expect smoother edges, fewer blocks, less noise and a sharper, larger picture, not magic.
Is the preview really free?
Yes. You get a watermarked, lower-resolution preview of the first 12 seconds plus a before and after comparison with no signup and no card.
What happens to my video after I upload it?
It is processed on our servers and automatically deleted after 24 hours. We do not review, share or use your videos for anything else.
What formats and sizes are supported?
MP4, MOV, WebM, AVI, 3GP, MKV and other common formats, up to 500 MB and 10 minutes. Damaged files go through an automatic repair attempt first.
Does it work on iPhone and Android?
Yes. Open the site in Safari or Chrome, tap Choose a video, and pick the clip from your library. Large files upload in small pieces so they survive weak connections.
How much does the full download cost?
A single full HD video is $9.99, three videos are $19.99, and an unlimited monthly plan is $14.99 a month with fair use.
