4K AI fashion images and 1080p video: The New Black AI

Published 30 September 2026

Some fashion pictures need more than a screen: a printed lookbook, a billboard, a product page where the shopper zooms into the stitching. The New Black AI now has a third level of quality for that, Ultra AI, next to Standard and Pro: pictures in 4K with the best image model we run, and videos in 1080p with the best video model, in the same workflows you already use.

The picture above was made with Ultra AI: 3,584 by 4,800 pixels, every bead of the embroidery readable.

Pro pictures moved from 1K to 2K on 29/09, at the same price. Guided video workflows (UGC Video, Model Walk, Product 360 and the others) open from the Pro plan at every level; Image to Video is open to every plan.

Where Ultra is offered

  • Pictures: every image workflow that has it, from Create a Product and Product to Model to Virtual Try-On, ghost mannequin, flat lay, color changer and swap fabrics.
  • Videos: Image to Video, UGC Video, Model Walk, Product 360, Model 360, Try-on Video, Outfit Transition, Detail Close-up, Editorial Lookbook and Fashion Ad.
  • Everywhere else too: through the API and for your AI agents, with the same prices.

How it works

1. Open a workflow in the studio. 2. Next to Standard and Pro, choose Ultra AI. The button shows the exact credits before you generate. 3. For a video, pick a length from 4 to 15 seconds. 4. Generate. The creation lands in your grid like any other, ready to download, publish to a Shopify product or place in a lookbook.

When to choose Ultra

A picture already made can also be enlarged later with Enhance to HD; Ultra makes it at 4K from the start, with the detail generated rather than added.
