# Bria Increase Resolution > Bria Increase resolution upscales the resolution of any image. It increases resolution using a dedicated upscaling method that preserves the original image content without regeneration. - **Provider**: replicate - **Model ID**: bria/increase-resolution - **Category**: image_upscale_restore - **Credits**: 93 per request - **Pricing Type**: fixed ## API Endpoint Base URL: https://api.core.today/v1 ### Create Prediction POST /predictions ### Get Status GET /predictions/{job_id} ### Cancel DELETE /predictions/{job_id} ## Authentication Header: `X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY` ## Input Parameters - `content_moderation` (boolean, optional): Enable content moderation (Default: `False`) - `desired_increase` (integer, optional): Resolution multiplier (scale factor). Possible values are 2 or 4. Maximum total area is 8192x8192 pixels (Default: `2`; Options: `2`, `4`) - `image_url` (string, optional): Image URL - `preserve_alpha` (boolean, optional): Preserve alpha channel in output. When true, maintains original transparency. When false, output is fully opaque. (Default: `True`) - `image` (string, optional): Image file - `sync` (boolean, optional): Synchronous response mode (Default: `True`) ## Example Request ```json { "model": "bria/increase-resolution", "input": { "image": "https://replicate.delivery/pbxt/NN1FzbFNu1nmjA141ZyiXuT9DZ8MR9kTmlRjHkBNTNbPnRtW/before_A_dramatic__high_impact_studio_photo_of_a_female_swimmer_in_a_black_performance_.jpg", "desired_increase": 4, "content_moderation": false, "sync": true, "preserve_alpha": true } } ``` ## Response Format ```json { "job_id": "abc123", "status": "pending", "provider": "replicate", "model": "black-forest-labs/flux-schnell", "created_at": "2026-01-01T00:00:00Z", "result": null, "error": null } ``` Status values: `pending`, `processing`, `completed`, `failed`, `cancelled` ## Usage Flow 1. POST /predictions with model and input → receive job_id 2. Poll GET /predictions/{job_id} until status is `completed` or `failed` 3. Result contains output URL(s) or data ## Output Type url ## Tags bria, upscaler, image-upscale, commercial-safe, alpha-preserving, utility ## Documentation https://replicate.com/bria/increase-resolution
