About Topaz Video AI
This application is the video enhancement tool from Topaz Labs, now published simply as Topaz Video after the AI suffix was dropped from its name. It takes existing footage and rebuilds it, upscaling to higher resolution, interpolating frames for smoother motion or slow motion, denoising, and converting standard dynamic range to high dynamic range.
It is aimed at editors, archivists, restoration specialists and production teams working with material that was shot at low resolution, compressed heavily or recorded on older formats. Model choices include Starlight for the most demanding restoration work, alongside precision and creative upscaling modes. The desktop application renders locally on the user's own GPU with unlimited local rendering, which suits long projects and large libraries, while the browser version and the Astra web product render in the cloud against monthly credits for people without the hardware to do it themselves.
Topaz Video is $59 per month or $299 per year, with a Pro license at $699 per year that adds pro exclusive models and expanded local capability. The browser video plan lists at $29 per month and includes 200 monthly cloud video credits, which expire at the end of each month and do not roll over. Topaz Studio bundles Topaz Video with the company's photo applications for $399 per year. On the personal tiers, commercial use is permitted only for organizations under $1 million in annual revenue.
The listed address now redirects to the current product page, which is the clearest sign of the rename. Buyers comparing listings should note that Topaz Video, Topaz Video AI and the newer cloud rendered Astra product are all the same vendor's video line rather than separate tools.
