AI video enhancer: Fix video, photos and sound in one local app

Repair, upscale, retouch and color-grade your footage with AI that runs on your own computer. Try free previews on your own clips before you pay.

Most footage isn't bad. It just has a few fixable problems: noise, softness, shake, faded color. KwaFlux looks at each clip, then repairs what it can — noise, blur, color, motion and faces — on your own computer, with your own graphics card.

30+ modules · Windows and Mac

From noisy, shaky footage to finished scenes.

To see what KwaFlux does with your own footage, render a free preview. No account needed.

  7. Slow motion from ordinary clips.

    AI Slow Motion builds in-between frames for 2×, 4× or 8× slower playback, with no high-speed camera.

    Smart Effects
  8. Smoother motion, up to 144 fps.

    Frame Interpolation raises the frame rate 2×, 3× or 4×, or to a custom target when the source allows.

    Frame Interpolation

Look closer.

Upscaling only matters if the detail holds up close. Move the lens across the frame: its left half shows the original, its right half the processed version, both magnified.

What people say about local AI enhancement

Local enhancement, free previews, export when it looks right.

  • “I finally stopped uploading client ceremonies to cloud enhancers. Local 1s/3s/5s previews on my own GPU let me approve looks before I pay to export.”

    Marcus Chen

    Wedding filmmaker

    5 out of 5

  • “The upscaler recovers texture instead of that plastic stretch look. Short free previews were enough to trust it on my channel masters.”

    Sofia Alvarez

    YouTube editor

    5 out of 5

  • “Restoring family tapes without shipping files off-site was the whole point. Denoise and deinterlace in one desktop pipeline saved me days.”

    Jonah Reed

    Archive digitizer

    5 out of 5

  • “Stabilization is honest about crop. Automatic keeps my walk-and-talk moves, and I save Subject Lock for shots that must not move.”

    Priya Natarajan

    Indie producer

    4 out of 5

  • “Smart cutout on interview B-roll without a green screen — and nothing left the laptop. That matters on NDA shoots.”

    Elena Volkov

    Documentary assistant

    5 out of 5

  • “Audio denoise in the same app as the picture pass is underrated. One export, dialogue already cleaner.”

    Chris Okonkwo

    Podcast video lead

    5 out of 5

  • “Lifetime pricing beat stacking another annual AI sub. Team machines stay on two-device seats without drama.”

    Hannah Brooks

    Social studio owner

    4 out of 5

  • “Sora and Kling clips look soft out of the box. Local 4K upscale is now the last step before I post.”

    Diego Santos

    AI-gen creator

    5 out of 5

  • “SDR to HDR preview on a 3-second slice beats guessing. I tune, then commit the full render overnight.”

    Aya Nakamura

    Color assistant

    5 out of 5

  • “Converter sitting next to enhance means I deliver H.265 masters without bouncing through three utilities.”

    Liam O’Connor

    Freelance editor

    4 out of 5

  • “Phone clips come in noisy and soft. A 3-second local preview on the worst take is enough before I batch the rest on my GPU.”

    Maya Park

    Short-form creator

    5 out of 5

  • “Grain cleanup used to be a second app before I comp. I preview denoise on a slice, then export the plate overnight — files never leave the desk.”

Frequently Asked Questions

What does KwaFlux do?

It's a desktop app that improves your own videos, photos, and audio on your computer: upscale and repair, restore old footage, smooth motion, retouch faces, grade color, clean up voices, edit and burn in subtitles, convert formats, and repair files that won't open. One license covers every module on up to 2 devices.

Can I try KwaFlux for free?

Yes — previews on your own footage need no account or card. Exporting, converting, repairing a file, and downloading a file from a link need sign-in and a paid plan, with no credits or per-minute fees. Plans and prices are on the Pricing page.

Does KwaFlux upload my videos?

No. Your media is processed on your own computer and isn't uploaded. KwaFlux still goes online for sign-in and license checks, app updates and model downloads (plus the GPU Acceleration Component on Mac), downloading a file from a link, and the crash and diagnostic reports described in our Privacy Policy.

What can AI video enhancement actually fix?

It reconstructs detail lost to compression and low resolution, corrects dull or faded color, smooths choppy motion with frame interpolation, stabilizes handheld shake, and isolates subjects without a green screen. It cannot invent detail that was never captured — heavily degraded sources improve substantially but won't become native 4K.

Which computers does KwaFlux run on?

Windows 10 (64-bit, version 1809 or later) and Windows 11, and macOS 12 or newer on Apple Silicon. Intel Macs, phones, tablets, and Linux aren't supported. macOS 12 runs in Standard Mode without GPU acceleration; macOS 13 and later prepare the GPU Acceleration Component automatically.

Will KwaFlux run on my laptop or integrated graphics?

Yes, if it meets the basics: on Windows, an Intel, AMD, or NVIDIA GPU from 2016 or later, integrated graphics included; on Mac, Apple Silicon; 8 GB of RAM, 16 GB recommended. Integrated GPUs take longer on 4K, long clips, and stacked effects. TensorRT acceleration isn't supported on Windows yet, and we haven't published a minimum GPU memory.

How long will it take to process my video?

It depends on your GPU, the source and output resolution, and how many effects you stack; we don't publish benchmarks yet. Before a long job, preview your hardest shot to judge quality and speed on your own machine.

Make every frame worth watching.
