Aiarty Review 2026: Video Enhancer, Image Enhancer, and Image Matting Prices and Limits

Key takeaways

Aiarty is a set of three desktop AI apps from Digiarty Software: Video Enhancer, Image Enhancer, and Image Matting. Each runs locally on Windows or Mac and is licensed on its own. Video Enhancer outputs video up to 4K, Image Enhancer upscales photos up to 32K, and Image Matting cuts out photo backgrounds, including hair and glass.

Before buying, check three things: how many computers and which platform each license covers, whether you need one Aiarty app or all three, and whether the trial lets you test your own footage. Then run the same clip through an alternative.

• Three apps, three licenses: Video Enhancer, Image Enhancer, and Image Matting are sold separately, and each license code works on one platform, Windows or Mac.
• List prices (purchase pages, 30 October 2026): Video Enhancer $99 a year or $235 lifetime; Image Enhancer $85 a year or $155 lifetime; Image Matting $69 a year or $109 lifetime. The store usually shows a discount next to the list price.
• Lifetime licenses cover 3 computers on the same platform and include all future versions; yearly plans include one year of updates.
• Video Enhancer runs on Windows 10 (64-bit, 1809 or later) and on macOS 13 or later, on Apple Silicon or on Intel Macs with a 4 GB dedicated GPU.
• Refunds: 30 days, when a technical problem can't be resolved or worked around.

Verdict at a glance

How we checked: we read Aiarty's purchase pages, product pages, and tech specs on 30 October 2026, and clicked through the Windows, Mac, and Windows + Mac tabs of each purchase page. We didn't benchmark speed or picture quality, which depend on your footage and your GPU; the last section explains how to test that yourself.

What is Aiarty?

Aiarty is a brand of Digiarty Software. It sells three desktop apps, each with its own license:

• Aiarty Video Enhancer upscales video, reduces noise and blur, interpolates frames to 60 or 120 fps, removes background noise from audio, and adjusts color, with an experimental SDR-to-HDR mode.
• Aiarty Image Enhancer denoises, sharpens, and upscales photos up to 8x, to a maximum of 32K, with face restoration and color tools.
• Aiarty Image Matting removes and replaces photo backgrounds, with models for hair, fur, and semi-transparent objects, and batch processing of up to 3,000 images.

Aiarty describes all three as processing media on your own computer with your GPU.

Plans and pricing

These are the list prices on each purchase page, checked 30 October 2026, before tax. On that day every plan also showed a lower promotional price, so check the store on the day you buy. Yearly plans renew automatically; Aiarty sends a reminder 7 days before the renewal date, and you can cancel at any time.

What's included in Aiarty Video Enhancer

• Three AI models: moDetail-HQ for texture, Smooth-HQ for faithful restoration, and superVideo vHQ for noisy, low-light footage (2x only).
• Upscaling at 1x, 2x, or 4x, or to a 1K, 2K, or 4K target.
• Turbo and Step modes: Step Mode processes in tiles to use less video memory, at a lower speed.
• Frame interpolation to 60 or 120 fps, and slow motion.
• Audio denoise for background noise and vocal clarity.
• Color and HDR: white balance, exposure, contrast, and saturation, plus an SDR-to-HDR 10-bit mode that Aiarty marks as experimental.
• Output to MP4, MOV, or MKV, with H.264, H.265, ProRes, or AV1.

Batch export comes with the full version. The free trial lets you try the features on clips under 120 seconds.

Licensing, devices, and refunds

• One platform per code: each license code works on Windows or on Mac, not both. The Windows + Mac lifetime edition comes with one code for each.
• Devices: Video Enhancer and Image Enhancer yearly plans cover 1 computer, and their lifetime licenses cover 3 on one platform. Image Matting covers 3 computers on both plans. Aiarty asks organizations that need more than 3 devices to contact sales.
• Updates: lifetime licenses include all future versions, which Aiarty describes as not version-limited; yearly plans include one year of updates.
• Refunds: a 30-day window. Aiarty grants a refund when the software has a problem it can't resolve or work around in that time, and asks you to contact support first.
• Commercial use is included on both plan types, according to the purchase pages.
• Payments go through 2Checkout (Verifone).

What it costs over three years

The calculation: yearly price × 3, or the sum of each app's lifetime price. List prices only; taxes vary by location. KwaFlux has no separate photo or cutout app, so its price stays the same whichever tools you use. For the general trade-offs, see lifetime vs subscription: the three-year cost.

Who should choose Aiarty

• You use an Intel Mac.
• You print photos large and need upscaling beyond 4K; Image Enhancer lists up to 32K.
• You cut out products or portraits with fine hair, fur, or glass and want a dedicated matting app.
• You want a lifetime license whose updates aren't tied to a major version, for up to 3 computers on one platform.
• You want a 30-day refund window.

Who might look elsewhere

• You work on both Windows and a Mac and want all your tools on both.
• You need video, photo, and background removal and would rather not buy three apps.
• You need video output above 4K, or background removal on video rather than stills.
• You'd rather pay by the month.

How KwaFlux differs

KwaFlux is also a local desktop app for Windows and Mac. AI processing runs locally on your GPU — media files are not uploaded for processing. The differences are scope and terms:

• Scope: one app and one license cover video upscaling, photo enhancement, portrait background removal on photos and video, object background replace, audio cleanup, file repair, and conversion.
• Devices: each license works on up to 2 devices, in any mix of Windows and Mac.
• Output: video up to 8K with H.265 or AV1; photos at 1x, 2x, 4x, 2K, or 4K.
• Try before buying: there's no trial period; instead, previews need no account: render a 1-, 3-, or 5-second preview of any clip, or preview a whole photo.
• Refunds: within 14 days of your first purchase if you haven't materially used paid export, for subscriptions and the Perpetual License.
• List prices: $35.99 a month, $99.99 a year, or a $199.99 Perpetual License that includes updates within the current major version; see pricing.
• Hardware: on Windows, Intel, AMD, or NVIDIA GPUs from 2016 or later, integrated or discrete; on Mac, macOS 12 or later on Apple Silicon; 8 GB RAM minimum, 16 GB recommended.

How to evaluate before you buy

1. Use your hardest clip: night footage, old tape, or a portrait with fine hair, not a sample video.
2. Keep it under 120 seconds so it fits Aiarty's video trial, and preview the same section in KwaFlux.
3. Compare at 100% zoom on the same screen, especially faces and fine texture.
4. Time it on your own computer, since speed depends on your GPU.
5. Count the apps: if you also work on photos or cutouts, price every Aiarty app you'd buy.

Final thoughts

Aiarty is a focused set of local apps, with lifetime licenses that include future versions, Intel Mac support, and photo upscaling up to 32K. The terms to check are one platform per license code, separate purchases for video, photo, and background removal, and a 4K ceiling on video. Test it and its alternatives on the same hard clip before you pay.

Try KwaFlux on the same clip

KwaFlux runs its video upscaler, photo enhancement, and background removal on your own GPU. AI processing runs locally on your GPU — media files are not uploaded for processing. It runs on Windows 10 (64-bit, version 1809 or later), Windows 11, and macOS 12 or newer on Apple Silicon. Previews need no account: 1, 3, or 5 seconds on video modules and the whole picture for images. Signing in with an active paid plan is required only to export, convert, repair a file, or download a file from a link.
