What img.now Image Enhancer is
img.now Image Enhancer is a web image tool for sharpening pictures, reducing noise, boosting color, and restoring facial detail in soft or flat photos. Its modes include Sharpen, De-noise, Color boost, and Face detail, while Balanced, Sharp, Soft, and Photo controls let you choose how to shape an enhancement. It accepts PNG, JPG, WebP, and other common image formats up to 16 MB. Each run uses 10 credits; the Free plan provides 100 credits per month and 40 bonus credits each day you return. Enhanced images can be downloaded, and img.now recommends comparing each result with the original before saving it. The enhancer can also be used in the same workspace as img.now’s converter, upscaler, background remover, and image generator. It is available on the web and through an HTTP API, though API access currently requires signing in with a session cookie. Free-plan files are kept for 24 hours and results have a small img.now watermark. Pro and Max remove the watermark and keep files long-term. img.now says images are released under CC0 for commercial use without attribution or royalties.
