Topaz Labs presents Astra 2

Topaz Labs launches Astra 2, an upgraded video generation model featuring a new prompt field, a sharpness slider and enhanced wide shot texture rendering.

Astra 2 succeeds Topaz Labs' creative model with redesigned controls. Key new feature: a prompt field now enables users to describe video content to guide detail generation, with the model leveraging this context to refine its reconstruction. A sharpness slider enables toggling between a soft, organic look and a more contrasted result. Topaz claims significant progress on wide shots, from landscapes to crowded scenes with dense backgrounds, as well as on product close-ups, where texture rendering and material realism are emphasized. Animation, already identified as one of Astra 1's strengths, reaches a new level. The model is available now within the Astra application.
