FixPhotoQuality vs Bigjpg

Caps you can quote

Free Bigjpg, as published: 3,000×3,000 px, 5 MB, two images at a time, uploads deleted within 24 hours. Paid uploads go to 50 MB. The plans were Basic $6, Standard $12, Premium $22. The FAQ says enlarging sometimes fails and that speed depends on server load. Paid users are offered an independent high-performance server. A 72-hour figure also appears in their retention notes. Both numbers are theirs.

FixPhotoQuality’s guest upload stops earlier on the long edge, at 2,000 px and 6 MB, and the free account at 2,560 px and 8 MB. Pro is $12, the same dollar figure as their Standard, for a different bundle: 120 credits, batch of 12, 20 MB, 4,096 px edge, 4× and face restore. Studio is $29, above their Premium, for 500 credits, batch of 40, 40 MB, and 8,192 px. The free download here is capped at 3,200 px even when the preview is larger. Their free tier’s 3,000 px output cap sits under our 3,200 px free download. That belongs in the verdict, not in a footnote.

Our deletion is 24 hours for every plan, and it is a deletion of the objects, not only an expiry timestamp. Their free uploads are deleted within 24 hours, and the 72-hour note means we will not claim they always delete faster or slower. We will claim our own clock because the sweep removes the file.

Anime, photographs, and the H1

The homepage H1 is the word Bigjpg. The meta description targets anime-style artwork. There was no JSON-LD on the home page. The FAQ has FAQPage and Breadcrumb. The API page is a TechArticle with four endpoints. The blog uses Blog and BlogPosting. Fetches of the homepage took about 1.8 to 2.0 seconds in the crawl. The sitemap held 179 URLs, mostly the same handful of pages across about twenty locales.

If the picture is a drawing, their stated audience matches and ours does not. Face restore and print calculators are a strange toolkit for a cel. If the picture is a scanned relative, an anime-targeted meta description is a hint that the model and the examples may not be the ones you want. Run both. Do not trust either slogan.

Both sites publish an API. Theirs is a TechArticle with four endpoints. Ours is a bearer key, the same credits as the tool, and a 10-minute window documented at /docs/api. The tool is still a form, a slider, and a download.

Failure, in their words and ours

They say enlarging sometimes fails and that speed depends on load. We say the same thing in the only way we can back: a job that errors returns the credit, and the tool tells you how long it has been running. We do not promise a separate server for paid users. Pro and Studio change credits, scale, batch, and file size. They do not promise a private machine.

A refund policy was not in the FAQ excerpt we captured, so we do not attribute one. Our subscriptions are not refunded. You can cancel anytime and keep the period you paid. Disliking a successful enlargement is not a failure. The credit stays spent. That is harsher than a taste guarantee and clearer than a hidden one.

Figures on this page were taken from public pages on 2026-10-26. Where a price was not in the server HTML, the cell says so. Free pages show ads on our pages. We did not observe an ad network on theirs. Schema on our tool pages includes HowTo because the steps differ for a JPEG, a 4×6, and a scan. Their FAQ schema is the right type for a FAQ. A homepage with no JSON-LD is not a moral failing. A homepage whose only H1 is the brand is a missed sentence, and ours tries to say the defect instead.

Artwork, photographs, and the free cap

Give them the illustration. Their meta description asked for it, and their free cap of 3,000 px sits under our 3,200 px free download. Give us the scan if you want the print calculator, the defect pages, and a credit back when the enlarge fails. Their FAQ already admits failure. The excerpt we captured did not say the failure was free. Ours is.

A $6 plan is something we do not have. If the budget stops there, Basic is a published option and Pro at $12 is not a substitute just because Standard is also $12. Read the bundles. Skip our tool entirely if you need the four API endpoints on their TechArticle page. We do not have them, and a poster of a relative does not require them.

What to keep beside the slider

Quote both free caps in the same breath. Theirs is 3,000 px and 5 MB, two at a time, deleted within 24 hours on the free tier, with a 72-hour figure also in the notes. Ours is a 2,000 px guest upload and a 3,200 px free download, deleted at 24 hours on every plan including paid. Their $6 entry has no twin here. Their Standard at $12 is not our Pro at $12. Their API is a TechArticle. Ours is a keyed API at /docs/api, metered to the same credits. Their homepage aims at anime and took about two seconds to fetch. Our pages aim at photographs and prints. Failure they admit. A returned credit is the part we add. Give them the drawing. Give the slider the scan.
