  • Pick what you need: Universal or Motion Blur correction.
  • Set the sharpness intensity: Low, Middle, or High.
  • If needed, turn on Face EnhancerAI for sharper faces.
That’s all! Sharpen AI handles everything else :)

3. Enjoy results

Why Choose Luminar Neo AI Photo Sharpener?

Unlike basic sharpeners, our AI actually analyzes your photo, restoring detail and fixing blur with intelligence, not just edge contrast. Luminar Neo offers AI to sharpen images in two ways:

Before After

Manage Motion Blur

Another common type of blur is motion blur, caused by shaky hands or fast-moving subjects. Supersharp AI’s Motion Blur correction understands depth, perspective, and context to detect and remove this distortion as well. That means your action shots, sports moments, and even supercar photos can now be saved and look crisp again!

Deal with Misfocus

Great composition shouldn’t go to waste just because of misfocus or low quality. Supersharp AI’s Universal correction analyzes the entire photo, detects what’s missing, and restores natural sharpness and detail. With one click, your photo goes from “almost there” to crisp and polished.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is AI Image Sharpening?

AI Photo Sharpening is a cutting-edge technology that enhances digital images by sharpening edges and contours, producing a crisper, more defined appearance. With its use of specialized networks and deep learning techniques, AI image clearer is a powerful tool that can improve the perception of image quality, making it a popular choice for professionals and hobbyists alike.

Does AI photo sharpening software improve image quality?

Yes. Sharpening images with AI helps improve photo quality by restoring lost details and textures. It works on everything from blurry shots to low-quality photos. Powered by deep learning, it delivers sharp, professional-looking results in just seconds.

Why is SupersharpAI the best AI image sharpener for your photos?

SupersharpAI offers two powerful modes: one that reduces general blur in any photo, and another that corrects motion blur in dynamic shots. You can also choose the sharpening strength—Low, Medium, or High—depending on the look you want. Just let the AI image clarifier analyze your image, apply the adjustments, and enjoy a perfectly sharp result.

Who can benefit from AI Image Sharpening?

AI sharpening is especially valuable for:

  • Product photography: show crisp textures and details that help items look more appealing
  • Real estate: make property photos look clearer and more professional
  • Social media creators: turn casual shots into sharp, scroll-stopping content
  • Event and wedding photography: rescue slightly blurred moments and keep memories sharp
  • E-commerce and marketing: create images that look polished and trustworthy

This tool helps anyone who needs photos to look sharp, detailed, and professional with minimal effort.

Can an AI sharpening tool work with a specific part of the photo?

Yes. AI sharpener can target only the areas that need sharpening. The algorithm analyzes your photo, enhances important details, and keeps the rest looking natural. Faces, objects, or any key element can be sharpened—without halos, noise, or artifacts.
