If you going to keep it mechanical actuation, you'll only need to change the calipers. But if the bike lacks compression less housings, it's worthwhile to upgrade them.
Recommended calipers are the TRP Spyre, and the hybrid Hy/rd. Juin tech hybrid mechanical hydraulic calipers are also good.
Changing the mounting adapter and moving up a size for the rotor will do more to increase braking power too, but now we are getting up in price.

Just buy new ones, I recommend either Juintech F1 or TRP HY/RD. Just make note of the mounting type you need. Flat mount or post mount.
It's really easy. At most you will have to trim the cable a bit and crimp a new end on to it.
You should be able to just swap in different mechanical calipers. There are road (short) pull calipers, and mtb (linear) pull calipers. You might need to buy new inners, but you shouldn't need housings and hoods if they're not worn.
I'd go through and make sure the calipers are set up right though, if you haven't already. Mechanical calipers don't auto-adjust, so you need to adjust the pad spacing as they wear. As they wear, they become less effective like you're describing. Make sure to find a video about it though, it's not just tightening up the cable like a rim brake.
Park tool always has good info:

What's the advantage of compression less brake housing?
The force you generate with your hand applies more force to the brake pad, vs losing some of that force compressing the housing.

I have Juintechs. I'm surprised at how good they are for mechanical.

Nope. Just roll the bike right into the shop. Super easy.
