Ok that's a good news until you find out I can't try a few free attempts (and taking my email and information)

no trial? not even watermarked to see quality? i realize we "see" the quality but not without trying on our own, or once per day or week even?

I agree, there's simply no way I am paying $39 upfront without even having the chance to test it with a 3-5 images first.

Agreed, they're making a big mistake.

Every AI platform I trialled successfully I took out annual subs for.

Without a trial period I'm not committing.

Wow an image upscaler that costs more than the whole Adobe creative Cloud. And you can't even try it first. I guess it's oriented to upscaling professionals.

When I can try at least once - and when there is another way to pay - subscription isn’t my cup of tea when it’s this type of service. For someone like me, you should have a pay for 5, 10 or similar upscale. Pretty please!

I have a similar opinion. Magnific has very nice results. But paying for 200 normal upscales/mo

100 large upscales/mo is unnecessary for me. I would need to process maybe 3-5 images per month.

I could imagine paying for this service the same way I pay for other AI services and using their API - the price for one upscale would be paid from credit. For example 0,5-1 USD per upscale. Or at the end of the month the amount would be charged from the credit card.

But paying a high monthly fee and then using a maximum of 5% of the subscribed number of upscales is uneconomical for me.

I'ld love to try it, but having to pay so much just to see what's the deal actually is, it's a pretty difficult ask. Product looks great anyway!

It's expensive

I understand the associated GPU costs and such, but by having no trial option you folks are shooting yourselves in the feet.

May I suggest a credit system that would allow me to top-up the balance to at least test your upscaler with 3-5 images? Or a one-time payment fee of $3-$5 to do that? $39 is too expensive.

Thanks for the invite. But like others say, the price is pro-level and no free/try for free/cheaper deal is a bit disappointing. Thanks though, but I'll pass for now.

I'm excited about your product but it's a bit crazy not to be able to try it once to see whether it works before paying $39 for it. I'll keep checking back to see if you guys do offer a trial.

Not to mention that the entry price per month is $40. I can’t afford that. Hopefully the cost will go down, otherwise I’ll never be able to use this tool.

I just took a subscription for a month only to find out that there's no 4x 8x upscaling at the moment. Very disappointing considering the price. It wasn't mentioned before I took the subscription. When will this 4x and 8x be available?

You can always download the upscaled image an re-upscale it again. You can do that with any Midjourney image up to 4x (two upscales), for example.

If I upload an image of 3000 x 4000 px the image is not accepted. the upscale button stays disabled. what would you advise?

This looks promising, but unfortunately I need to try and see for myself if this works for the type of pictures I want to upscale before I subscribe to any plan.

I really really want to play with Magnific, even to the point that I would pay the absolutely INSANE price of $39 bucks for just 200 images. However when I went to the checkout another $10 was added as VAT even though im in Sweden and you don't have to pay VAT for us.

So there was no deal. fukking $50 bucks for 200 images, you are completely out of your minds!
