## See what was never lost.

8-bit footage throws away detail in the brightest and darkest parts of every frame. SwitchHDR brings it back — highlight detail reconstructed, shadow noise suppressed — without touching the performance.

### Footage Examples

02Hong Kong taxi — shadow banding & detail  
03Flatiron — sky & facade

## You decide what comes back.

Every other tool guesses. Beeble lets you direct the recovery — by region and by intent. No one else gives you this.

### 01 — REGION

#### Mask by luminance.

Set a threshold with a slider — this much is shadow, this much is highlight. Outside the mask, Beeble stays faithful to your original, pixel for pixel. Inside, it reconstructs the lost detail with more latitude. You draw the line between preserve and rebuild.

### 02 — INTENT

#### Direct it with a prompt.

Tell SwitchHDR what belongs in the recovered region — sunset, blue sky, ocean. The detail comes back the way your shot intended, not the way a model guessed.

## The model behind it

### Powered by SwitchHDR.

Our own model, developed in-house and trained on real HDR footage — not an API wrapper, not a filter. The recovery is grounded in how light actually behaves.
