Question about Upscayl Models and Commercial Use

[Dogidora]

Hi everyone,

I saw on the Upscayl website and GitHub that images exported using the Real-ESRGAN and Digital Art models can be used for commercial purposes. But when I checked the app, I didn’t see a “Real-ESRGAN” option. Instead, I only found Upscayl Standard, Upscayl Lite, and High Fidelity.

So, I’m wondering:
1. Are the images exported using these three models okay for commercial use?
2. Does Upscayl add any hidden watermarks to the images that might cause issues later?
3. If commercial use is allowed, is there an official statement or license file I can download for documentation purposes?

Thanks in advance for your help!

1. Regarding the commercial use of images exported using the Upscayl Standard, Upscayl Lite, and High Fidelity models, the Upscayl repository includes an official statement regarding its license for commercial use. The project is licensed under the AGPL-3.0 license, which allows for commercial use ^[1].

2. As for hidden watermarks, I wasn't able to find any information within the repository that confirms whether Upscayl adds hidden watermarks to the images. This information may be available elsewhere or I could have missed it.

3. You can download the official statement regarding the license for documentation purposes from the Upscayl repository, as it is licensed under the AGPL-3.0 license ^[1].

Could you provide more details about what specifically you're unsure about regarding the watermark? Are you asking if Upscayl adds any visible or invisible watermarks to the images processed with the High Fidelity model? Additionally, are you looking for confirmation on whether images exported using the High Fidelity model are allowed for commercial use?
