- Model id: `topaz/upscale/video/precision`
- Made by: Topaz Labs
- Category: Upscale
- Output: video
- Price per second of your input video: from $0.00667 / second of input video (cheapest run $0.10 (100 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/topaz/upscale/video/precision`
- Quote: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/topaz/upscale/video/precision`
- Docs page: https://doitong.com/fr-CA/developers/models/topaz/upscale/video/precision

## Pricing

Price: **from $0.00667 / second of input video** (the lowest tier; the quote prices your exact input). Price per second of your input video: the input files are measured before the run (length, resolution, frame rate). The quote measures the same files and is exactly what the run charges.

Price by tier:

- 720p: $0.00667 / second of input video
- 1080p: $0.0133 / second of input video
- 720p, frame rate: $0.0133 / second of input video
- 1080p, frame rate: $0.0267 / second of input video
- 4K: $0.0517 / second of input video
- above 4K: $0.0919 / second of input video
- 4K, frame rate: $0.1033 / second of input video
- above 4K, frame rate: $0.1837 / second of input video

The full example input below costs $0.60 = 600 API credits (10 s input video × $0.051667 (4K), rounded up to the next $0.10).

Prices are the upstream price in USD, paid from the API balance in API credits (1000 API credits = 1 USD). `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/topaz/upscale/video/precision` with the same JSON body returns the exact price for that input; the quote is exactly what a run charges. Invalid input is never charged and failed or canceled requests are refunded automatically.

## Input parameters

Send either the canonical name or the native field name (not both). Canonical names are the same across models.

| Parameter | Canonical name | Type | Required | Default | Allowed values / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `video_url` | `video` | string (video URL) | yes |  |  | URL de la vidéo source pour la mise à l’échelle. |
| `model` |  | enum (string) | no | `Proteus` | `Proteus`, `Proteus Natural`, `Iris`, `Iris Low Quality`, `Dione DV`, `Dione TV`, `Dione Robust`, `Dione Dehalo`, `Dione Robust Dehalo`, `Artemis High Quality`, `Artemis Medium Quality`, `Artemis Low Quality`, `Artemis Strong Halo`, `Artemis Medium Halo`, `Artemis Aliasing & Moire`, `Gaia HQ`, `Gaia CG`, `Gaia 2`, `Rhea`, `Theia Fine Tune Detail`, `Theia Fine Tune Fidelity` | Modèle d’amélioration de précision non génératif : Theia offre un contrôle manuel de la fidélité et des détails, tandis que Rhea maximise les détails fins grâce à un passage interne 4x. Pour les tâches de restauration, utilisez Artemis pour accentuer et réduire le bruit des séquences dégradées, Dione pour désentrelacer les contenus anciens ou entrelacés, ou Iris pour récupérer les visages. Pour la plupart des séquences réelles, Proteus convient et Proteus Natural offre une option plus douce ; Gaia améliore les séquences de haute qualité et les contenus CG, tandis que Gaia 2 offre une mise à l’échelle 2x pour l’animation. |
| `upscale_factor` |  | number | no | `2` | 1 – 4 | Multiplicateur de mise à l’échelle vidéo ; une valeur de 2.0 double les deux dimensions des images. |
| `target_fps` |  | integer \| null | no |  | 16 – 60 | Cadence de sortie cible ; si elle correspond à la cadence source, l’interpolation reste désactivée, et seule une cadence différente l’active. |
| `compression` |  | number \| null | no |  | 0 – 1 | Intensité de suppression des artefacts de compression, de 0.0 à 1.0. Le modèle détermine la valeur par défaut. |
| `noise` |  | number \| null | no |  | 0 – 1 | Intensité de la réduction du bruit, de 0.0 à 1.0. Le modèle détermine la valeur par défaut. |
| `halo` |  | number \| null | no |  | 0 – 1 | Intensité de réduction des halos, de 0.0 à 1.0. Le modèle détermine la valeur par défaut. |
| `grain` |  | number \| null | no |  | 0 – 0.1 | Quantité de grain de pellicule, de 0.0 à 0.1. La valeur par défaut dépend du modèle. |
| `recover_detail` |  | number \| null | no |  | 0 – 1 | Intensité de récupération des détails originaux, de 0.0 à 1.0. Augmenter cette valeur conserve davantage de détails sources. |
| `H264_output` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | Détermine si la vidéo de sortie utilise l’encodage H264 au lieu de H265 par défaut. |

File parameters (`video`) take a public `https://` URL, a `data:` URI up to 10 MB, or the `file_url` of an upload from `POST /files`.

## Example input

Required parameters only:

```json
{
  "video": "https://content.doitong.com/video/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.mp4"
}
```

A fuller example:

```json
{
  "video": "https://content.doitong.com/video/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.mp4",
  "upscale_factor": 2
}
```

## Run it

Set `DOITONG_API_KEY` to a key from https://doitong.com/developers/dashboard#keys. `?wait=20` returns the finished request in the same call when it is ready within 20 seconds; otherwise poll `GET /requests/{id}` (it also accepts `?wait=`), or pass `webhook_url`.

### curl

```bash
# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
curl -X POST "https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/topaz/upscale/video/precision?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "video": "https://content.doitong.com/video/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.mp4",
    "upscale_factor": 2
  }'

# Still "queued" or "running"? Poll with the id from the response:
curl "https://api.doitong.com/v1/requests/REQUEST_ID?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY"
```

### JavaScript

```javascript
const API = "https://api.doitong.com/v1";
const headers = {
  "Authorization": "Bearer " + process.env.DOITONG_API_KEY,
  "Content-Type": "application/json",
};

// Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
let res = await fetch(API + "/run/topaz/upscale/video/precision?wait=20", {
  method: "POST",
  headers,
  body: JSON.stringify({
    "video": "https://content.doitong.com/video/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.mp4",
    "upscale_factor": 2
  }),
});
let request = await res.json();
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(request.error.code + ": " + request.error.message);

// Not finished yet: long-poll until it is
while (request.status === "queued" || request.status === "running") {
  res = await fetch(API + "/requests/" + request.id + "?wait=20", { headers });
  request = await res.json();
}
if (request.status !== "succeeded") throw new Error(JSON.stringify(request.error));
console.log(request.outputs.map((o) => o.url), request.cost.credits + " API credits ($" + request.cost.usd + ")");
```

### Python

```python
import os
import requests

API = "https://api.doitong.com/v1"
headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer " + os.environ["DOITONG_API_KEY"]}

payload = {
    "video": "https://content.doitong.com/video/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.mp4",
    "upscale_factor": 2,
}

# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
r = requests.post(API + "/run/topaz/upscale/video/precision", params={"wait": 20}, json=payload, headers=headers)
request = r.json()
if not r.ok:
    raise RuntimeError(request["error"]["code"] + ": " + request["error"]["message"])

# Not finished yet: long-poll until it is
while request["status"] in ("queued", "running"):
    request = requests.get(API + "/requests/" + request["id"], params={"wait": 20}, headers=headers).json()
if request["status"] != "succeeded":
    raise RuntimeError(request["error"])
print([o["url"] for o in request["outputs"]], request["cost"]["credits"], "API credits", "$" + request["cost"]["usd"])
```

### MCP

The MCP server at `https://api.doitong.com/v1/mcp` exposes the tools `search_models`, `get_model`, `quote`, `run`, `get_request`, `cancel_request`, `list_requests`, `create_upload` and `get_account`. A `run` call for this model:

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "run",
    "arguments": {
      "model_id": "topaz/upscale/video/precision",
      "input": {
        "video": "https://content.doitong.com/video/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.mp4",
        "upscale_factor": 2
      },
      "wait_seconds": 20
    }
  }
}
```

## Response

Every call returns a request object. `status` is one of `queued`, `running`, `succeeded`, `failed`, `canceled`. `outputs` lists the generated files with URLs on our storage (kept forever, or 7 days with `?storage=temporary`; `storage` says which); `output` is the model's own result object with the same URLs.
