Topaz Video Upscaler
Topaz Video Upscaler is Kyeo's current single-video factor workflow. It accepts one video URL plus `1x / 2x / 4x`, defaults to `2x`, and has no prompt input. Those factors are API values, not guarantees of denoising, restoration, stabilization, frame interpolation, 4K output, or a specific visual improvement; test critical footage first.
At a glance
What is this model like?
This workflow is not a mirror of the full Topaz Video desktop product. Topaz Labs also describes denoising, stabilization, slow motion, frame interpolation, and other broader features, while the current public source workflow exposes only a video URL and an upscale factor. Choose based on this narrow interface rather than inheriting every capability from the brand page.

Selection guide
Use these decision points when choosing a model.
Consider it when you already have one video and want to test the current workflow's factor-based output, with a noncritical sample available for checking dimensions, quality, and runtime first.
Use Runway Aleph or Luma Modify Video to rewrite, reenact, or restyle existing footage. If you do not yet have a final video and still need a generation or editing workflow, start with Wan 2.7 Video. This page addresses enhancement, not rewriting or generation.
Compare factors on a representative clip: Topaz Video Upscale bills from the signed input-video duration: 1x/2x use 8 credits/second and 4x uses 14 credits/second, with the total rounded up; a missing or invalid duration token is rejected before debit.

Credit usage
Calculation — Topaz Video Upscale bills from the signed input-video duration: 1x/2x use 8 credits/second and 4x uses 14 credits/second, with the total rounded up; a missing or invalid duration token is rejected before debit.
Before batch generation, run an A/B test with the same assets across the current model and alternatives to validate quality and avoid wasting credits.

Wan 2.7 Video
Wan 2.7 supports text-to-video, first-frame or first-and-last-frame image-to-video, and video editing. It currently offers 720p and 1080p, so compare media requirements, duration, framing, and estimated credits together.
Seedance 2.0
Seedance 2.0 / Capabilities — Text accepts no media; frames requires a first frame and allows a last frame; reference requires a prompt and at least one image, video, or audio reference. Reference media cannot be sent with endpoint-frame fields. Seedance 2.0 supports three mutually exclusive text, frame, and multimodal-reference scenes. The current callable output set is 720p, 1080p, and 4K for 4–15 seconds; video-reference requests are available only at 1080p or 4K because those are the current priced combinations. 164–3,840 credits per request
