Proteus Natural

Next-generation natural enhancement

Model Overview

Proteus Natural is an update to the popular Proteus model, designed to eliminate over sharpening and over enhancement that can occasionally occur during upscaling. This next generation refinement delivers a more natural, softer output while preserving texture and source character.

Proteus Natural reduces sharpening halos, aliasing, and background distortion, producing clean, stable upscales across a wide range of video sources and supporting both local and cloud workflows.
