ON1 will release Resize AI Version 2023.5 in early May (see pricing):

“This new version of ON1 Resize AI will include our new Face Recovery technology which can detect small faces in photos and upscale them with realistic detail. It’s perfect for enlarging old group photos or when you have to crop a person out of a photo. The software can reconstruct a face from modest details creating realistic features and textures, resulting in stunning and natural-looking results. Version 2023.5 will also add a component from our AI-powered NoNoise AI into the image upscaling workflow. This will help reduce noise as well as JPG and over-sharpening artifacts to create higher-quality photo enlargements.”
