Quality Checklist for AI Video Exports

By Aykut Yılmaz · Published 12/6/2025 · 4 min read

BLUF: Don’t let a blurry upload kill your viral potential. Platforms compress the life out of your videos if you don’t feed them the right specs. Here is the exact checklist to ensure your AI masterpieces look crisp on every phone.

Why Quality Matters (Algorithm Secret)

Here is a secret: Algorithms are biased toward high-resolution content. TikTok and Instagram use AI to scan your video quality. If it detects pixelation or low bitrates, it suppresses your reach. Quality isn’t just aesthetic; it’s SEO for algorithms.

Datareportal’s 2025 report notes that platforms prioritize HD uploads; compression hits 4K uploads harder than native 1080p. Source: Digital 2025.

Amateur vs. Pro Export

Spec	Amateur	Pro
Resolution	720p or “4K” (Overkill)	1080p (Native Mobile)
Frame Rate	24fps or Variable	30/60fps (Smooth Scroll)
Format	MOV / Uncompressed	H.264 MP4 (Optimized)

The Ultimate Quality Checklist

Resolution: 1080x1920 (9:16). Never upload 4K to TikTok/Reels; their compressor will destroy it.
Upscaling: AI video models often output at 576p or 720p. You MUST upscale to 1080p using an AI upscaler (like Visionary’s built-in one) to fix artifacts.
Bitrate: Aim for 15-20 Mbps. Low bitrate = blocky artifacts. High bitrate = slow buffering.

Visionary Settings Guide

We automate this for you, but it’s good to know what is happening under the hood.

Generate: Our base models generate high-fidelity previews.
Upscale (One Tap): Before downloading, tap the “Upscale” button. This runs a specialized model to sharpen edges and remove noise.
Export: We automatically package it as an optimized H.264 MP4.
