Aiarty has introduced a new version of its desktop video enhancement software. The update adds new AI models, along with control parameters and workflow options, aimed at creators working with archival footage, HD, and UHD material, or clips that require noise reduction and slow-motion. The application runs offline on both Mac and Windows and combines sharpening, denoising, upscaling, basic color adjustment, and frame interpolation in a single interface. Let’s take a closer look.
In July, we were introduced to the Aiarty Video Enhancer (which we wrote about here), and we recently took a look at the new version of the Aiarty Image Enhancer (which we wrote about here), which takes a similar approach to still images. Following its initial release earlier this year, the Video Enhancer has now received an update that introduces several new tools and workflow options.
These are the key features:
The tool combines AI-based denoising, deblurring, texture enhancement, upscaling from HD to 4K, and frame interpolation for generating smoother slow motion. In addition to its enhancement tools, the software includes basic editing functions (trimming, cropping, rotation, and flipping), as well as audio cleanup to reduce unwanted background noise.
The new Strength Control slider lets users adjust the intensity of AI-based detail enhancement rather than applying a fixed setting. The update also adds an option to convert SDR footage to HDR 10-bit, as well as built-in color correction tools for adjusting white balance, contrast, exposure, highlights, and shadows.
Aiarty has also introduced Step Mode, which processes high-resolution footage to improve performance by managing VRAM usage during longer renders. The company also notes further GPU-optimized processing, including Turbo Mode, to improve performance on supported systems.
Aiarty supports batch processing, so multiple clips can be processed in a single session. All processing is performed offline, meaning footage remains on the user’s local system throughout the workflow.
The software uses three primary AI models, each intended for different types of footage: moDetail HQ v2 is designed to enhance fine textures such as hair, skin, and foliage; Smooth HQ v2 is for more general video restoration; and superVideo vHQ targets grainy or low-light clips.
Aiarty is currently offering its Video Enhancer under a lifetime license priced at $149 as part of a limited-time holiday promotion, which reflects a 36% discount off the standard lifetime license price. Use the code XMASSAVE at checkout to get an additional $5 reduction, as well as a $10 discount when purchasing Aiarty bundles.

How does Aiarty’s offline workflow compare to cloud-based video enhancement tools in real-world use? Let us know in the comments.

A camera was put in my hands at 16, and I’ve been taking photographs ever since. Before moving to Vienna, I worked as a photographer on film sets, telling stories as they unfolded behind the scenes. Since then, I’ve focused on immersive theater, both as a photographer and an actor. I am the photographer for the award-winning Nesterval ensemble, documenting the energy and atmosphere of their performances. I’m a teller of stories. Stories hold my interest. I’ll take on any project with a story to tell.
