DALLAS, May 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Topaz Labs today announced four new upgrades to its lineup of image and video enhancement tools. The aptly named ‘Expansion Update’ includes a new SDR-to-HDR video upscaler, expanded access to recently released models on both desktop and web, and a new streamlined experience for using video enhancement models in Adobe Premiere. Combined with the recently released Wonder, Starlight, and Astra models, today’s release marks the next generation of both image enhancement and video upscaling. 

“This is our largest fundamental improvement in model quality in years,” says Topaz Labs CEO, Eric Yang. “We released our first models in 2018, and the model architecture has remained basically unchanged until now. What started as a single experiment called Project Starlight has now grown to an entirely new series of models that address almost every issue an image or video can have, with the most natural results yet. Today, we are excited to expand access to these models.” 

A key part of the update is Topaz Labs for Premiere, a new UXP panel for Adobe Premiere users. Users can now send media from their Premiere project to the Topaz cloud processing system for AI upscaling and enhancement without leaving their timeline.

The full list of models and features in today’s release includes:

• Hyperion 2: New SDR-to-HDR video upscaling model available in Topaz Video.
• Topaz Gigapixel: Major application update adding Wonder 2, Wonder 3, and High Fidelity 3 models to its lineup.
• Topaz Labs for Premiere: Integration panel bringing Topaz Labs AI video enhancement directly to the Premiere timeline.
