General model, moderate strength tier, 4K output
AI-generated footage already has synthetic texture; the moderate tier recovers detail without amplifying generation artifacts into crunchiness.
AI generator workflow
Upscale Sora videos to 4K — locally
Sora generations look striking in the app and soft on a big screen — AI video output is typically delivered well below 4K, and fine texture smears under motion. Kwaflux reconstructs detail and sharpens delivery locally, so your best generation becomes a usable master.

Why Sora output needs upscaling
- Generated clips are typically delivered at 720p–1080p depending on plan and settings — fine for a feed preview, soft on a TV, projector, or client deliverable.
- Diffusion-based generation tends to produce smeared micro-texture (skin, fabric, foliage) and slightly mushy edges that become obvious once the clip is scaled up by a player.
- Fine on-screen text and logos often come out garbled or soft — upscaling with a detail-reconstruction model tightens edges without inventing new artifacts.
Recommended Kwaflux settings for Sora footage
Portrait model when people carry the shot
Face-aware reconstruction keeps skin natural — the place where generated footage looks most obviously synthetic after naive sharpening.
Optional: frame interpolation to 60fps
Generated clips often render at cinematic frame rates; interpolating to 60fps gives social-friendly smoothness without re-generating.
Three-step workflow
Export from the generator
Download the clip at the highest resolution and bitrate your plan allows — the cleaner the source, the more the upscaler can recover.
Preview settings in Kwaflux
Import the clip, apply the recommended settings below, and render a free 1s/3s preview to check the result on your actual footage.
Upscale and export locally
Render to 1080p or 4K on your own GPU — no upload queue, no per-clip cloud fees, and batch mode handles a whole folder of generations.
Frequently asked questions
What resolution does Sora output?
It depends on your plan and generation settings, but delivered clips are typically in the 720p–1080p range — below what a 4K timeline or large display expects. Check the actual file properties of your export, then upscale to the delivery size you need.
Will upscaling fix Sora's smearing and warping artifacts?
Upscaling reconstructs resolution and edge detail; it sharpens smeared texture noticeably but cannot re-generate content — warped geometry or morphing objects are generation-level issues. For those, pick your best take and upscale that.
Can I upscale a whole batch of generations at once?
Yes. Batch processing applies the same recipe to a folder of clips unattended — useful when you generate many takes and want them all delivery-ready.
Is my generated video uploaded anywhere?
No. Kwaflux processes everything locally on your own GPU — clips never leave your machine, and there are no per-minute cloud fees or upload queues.
