HitPaw Video Enhancer
HitPaw Video Enhancer (rebranded as HitPaw VikPea in October 2024) is an AI-powered video enhancement application that upscales videos to 4K and 8K resolution, reduces noise, colorizes black-and-white footage, enhances colors, stabilizes shaky video, and performs frame interpolation to smooth motion. It targets content creators, video editors, and casual users who need to restore old footage, improve low-quality recordings, or enhance archival material. The software uses specialized neural models optimized for different video types — general scenes, portraits, animation, and low-light conditions — and offers both desktop and cloud-based processing options.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionHitPaw Video Enhancer includes native Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3) support according to recent reviews dated March 2026, so an M-series Mac user running the current version is already using the native build. If your copy is older, update to the latest version through HitPaw's official website or through the app's built-in update mechanism to ensure you have the native Apple Silicon build. The main download page at hitpaw.com automatically serves the correct architecture for your Mac, so a standard reinstall will give you the native version. This will improve performance and battery life compared to running under Rosetta 2. As Apple removes Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028), staying on the latest HitPaw build ensures your video enhancement workflow remains uninterrupted on future macOS releases.
