Ultra Fractal is a fractal generation program with many advanced capabilities. The program supports multiple layers, different layer blending modes, transformations and custom fractal formulas. Different coloring algorithms are also selectable and a large number of formula files are available in a public formula database. It is one of the few fractal programs that supports arbitrary precision arithmetic, allowing users to zoom to a magnification of 10^4000

The interface is highly customizable considering the wealth of functions at hand. The software displays image statistics and the estimated render time. Other features include fullscreen mode, color cycling, distributed calculations and a detailed help file. Version 4 supports animations and better flame fractal rendering.

As of 2006, a full unlimited version of Ultrafractal 4 standard costs US $59 ($129 for the Animation Edition). An evaluation copy functions fully except for the ability to export images. Unregistered copies only create watermarked renders.
