We tested many image enhancement tools to improve avatars. Most of them offered only small improvements — basic contrast adjustments, color filters, or slight sharpening. But these didn’t do much when starting with stills from TikTok videos, which often have low resolution and washed-out colors.
That changed with the arrival of ChatGPT 4o’s image processing.
On the left is the original image. On the right is the enhanced version. The colors are deeper, the structure is more defined, and the image has a much stronger visual appeal.
Unlike older tools, ChatGPT 4o doesn’t just apply filters. It analyzes the content of the image and enhances it in a way that brings out natural texture, detail, and lighting. The result is an image that feels more real, rich, and appetizing.
We simply uploaded this image and used the following request:
"Enhance this square photo of Beef and Italian Sausage Spaghetti"
The result brought out the depth of the sauce, lifted the lighting across the plate, and sharpened the noodles without making the image look artificial. It feels like a professionally shot food photo — but it's just one prompt away.
Recipe Page with Original Avatars
This page shows five recipe avatars taken directly from TikTok video stills. They serve the purpose but look flat, low-contrast, and a bit dull.
Recipe Page with Enhanced Avatars
The same five recipes, now with enhanced avatars using ChatGPT 4o. The difference is noticeable — sharper images, better lighting, and colors that make the food stand out. The overall page looks more polished and engaging.

If you're working with video content or low-quality images, ChatGPT 4o provides a real upgrade. It goes beyond filters to help you create strong, high-quality visuals that make an impact.
