What are the main benefits of Digiarty Aiarty Image Enhancer?

Aiarty Image Enhancer is a desktop application from Digiarty that uses locally running AI models to denoise, sharpen, restore and upscale photos and AI-generated images. It works as a specialised finishing tool next to an editor such as Lightroom Classic rather than as a replacement for one.

Print-ready enlargements – Turns small crops into large prints at up to 1000 DPI.
Old photo rescue – Real-Photo model restores scanned prints and old portraits.
Lightroom integration – Registers itself as a Lightroom Classic external editor.
Private processing – Images stay on your computer, not used for training.
Commercial use – License permits personal and commercial use of the software.
AI art cleanup – AIGCsmooth v3 refines textures in AI-generated images.

What does Digiarty Aiarty Image Enhancer do?

Aiarty Image Enhancer removes noise, blur and JPEG compression artifacts from images and enlarges them with AI models that run on your own computer. It can keep the original size at 1x and only improve quality, upscale by 2x, 4x or 8x, or scale to fixed 1K, 2K, 4K and 8K presets. Face restoration, color correction, crop and rotate tools, SDR-to-HDR conversion and an experimental AI Eraser for removing objects or text are part of the same workflow. Settings tuned on one image can be applied to a whole set through batch export, which is useful when several hundred high-ISO photos from one event need the same noise treatment.

Which AI model should be used for which type of image?

The choice of model has more influence on the result than any other setting in Aiarty Image Enhancer. More-Detail GAN v3 and v2 generate fine detail in hair, fur, feathers, landscapes and architecture, and Digiarty names 2x as the factor that gives the best results. AIGCsmooth v3 is designed for AI-generated images and adds texture while keeping their smooth look, while Smooth Diff v2 suits cartoons, line drawings and smooth surfaces such as glass. Real-Photo v3 targets photorealistic images and old photo restoration, but only works at 1x and 2x and does not accept custom resolutions. If a result looks barely different from the original, Digiarty advises trying another model and zooming in, because the software is designed to keep the original style and colors.

Which file formats and camera RAW files does Aiarty Image Enhancer support?

According to Digiarty's technical specifications, Aiarty Image Enhancer opens JPG, PNG, TIFF, WebP, HEIC, AVIF, BMP and JPEG 2000 files as well as camera RAW formats such as DNG, CR3, CR2, NEF, ARW, RAF, RW2, ORF and PEF. Results can be exported as JPG, PNG in 8 or 16 bit, TIFF, DNG, AVIF or HEIC, with output DPI selectable from 72 to 1000. TIFF and DNG export keep a higher bit depth, so an enhanced file can go back into a RAW editor for further grading instead of ending up as an 8-bit JPEG. Since version 3.13, the program can set itself up as an external editor in Lightroom Classic, which shortens the round trip from catalog to enhancer and back.

What are the limitations of Aiarty Image Enhancer?

Aiarty Image Enhancer is an automated enhancement and upscaling tool, not a layered photo editor, so it has no layers, masks or local brush adjustments. Its RAW support covers opening and enhancing camera files, but it does not offer catalog management or the full development toolset of a RAW converter such as Lightroom Classic. The program processes still images only, and video files are not among the supported formats. The Real-Photo model is limited to 1x and 2x, the AI Eraser is still marked as experimental, and the maximum output on a Mac is 16,000 pixels per side compared with 32,000 pixels on Windows.

Can Aiarty Image Enhancer run on both Windows and macOS?

Yes, Digiarty offers separate versions for Windows and macOS, but each license code only works on the platform it was issued for. Buyers should therefore check that the key matches the operating system they actually use, because a Windows key does not cover the Mac version. The Windows version requires 64-bit Windows 10 (version 1809) or later, while the Mac version runs on Intel Macs and on Apple Silicon from M1 to M5. The two versions also differ in maximum output size: 32,000 pixels per side on Windows and 16,000 pixels on macOS, which matters for very large print or panorama work.

Does Aiarty Image Enhancer need an internet connection or AI credits?

No, image processing runs locally, and Digiarty states that all AI models can be downloaded for offline use. There is no credit system, so the number of processed images is not capped by a monthly allowance as it is with many online upscaling services. Processing is accelerated on NVIDIA, AMD and Intel graphics on Windows and through CoreML on Apple Silicon Macs, with CPU processing available as a slower fallback. Digiarty also states that customer images are not used for AI training without explicit consent, which is relevant for client shoots or unreleased product photos.

Can images enhanced with Aiarty Image Enhancer be used commercially?

Yes, Digiarty's license terms permit both personal and commercial use of Aiarty Image Enhancer. Photographers can deliver enhanced images to clients, and online shops can upscale existing product photos for zoom views or printed catalogs. Digiarty points out that the user remains responsible for holding the rights to the images being processed, so enhancing a picture does not create new usage rights to someone else's work.

Who is Aiarty Image Enhancer best suited for?

Aiarty Image Enhancer suits people who need to rescue or enlarge existing images rather than build composites or retouch with layers. An event photographer can remove high-ISO noise from a dark venue across a whole batch and send the results back to Lightroom Classic as DNG files. Families and archivists digitizing old prints benefit from the Real-Photo model and face restoration, which rebuild blurred facial detail in scans. Creators working with AI-generated artwork can use AIGCsmooth v3 to bring a low-resolution render up to poster size. Anyone who needs layer-based retouching or compositing will still need a separate photo editor alongside it.

Frequently asked questions about Digiarty Aiarty Image Enhancer

Can image quality be improved without changing the resolution?

Yes, selecting the 1x option applies denoising, deblurring and detail enhancement while keeping the original pixel dimensions. This is useful when an image already has the right size for a website or layout but looks soft or noisy.

Can Aiarty Image Enhancer convert images to HDR?

Yes, since version 3.9 the software can convert 8-bit SDR images to 10-bit HDR. Since version 3.10, HDR results can also be exported as TIFF or DNG files.

Can several faces in one photo be restored individually?

Yes, face restoration can be switched on or off for each detected face, and the restoration strength is adjustable. An Autopilot option can also select suitable faces automatically, which saves time with group photos.

Which interface languages does Aiarty Image Enhancer offer?

Digiarty states that the software supports 10 interface languages, including English, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese and Korean.
